HKClubbing had the chance to talk to Michelle Branch on her 10 hour visit to Hong Kong for the MTV Awards 2004 press conference and her 40 minute performance at the Hong Kong Harbour fest, before heading straight back to Japan to continue her tour there.

Alyson (HKClubbing.com): Hey Michelle! Thanks for coming down to Hong Kong!

Michelle: Thank you very much!

Alyson(HKClubbing.com): What’s the one thing that makes you most excited when you’re on the stage?

Michelle: Umm… the one thing that makes me most excited… I guess for me, you know… it’s not too long ago, that I was just sitting in my room, dreaming of being a performer, traveling the world, being on stage, and ah… if you think about it, I would say that was years ago… but that was really only a few years ago, I mean five years ago the most, and to be on stage and to look out and see people singing along to my songs, is absolutely incredible… such a short amount of time to experience what I have experienced it’s been really incredible!

Others: Are you happy now?

Michelle: Am I happy now after that?! (Undressed fan at press conference who proposed) Sorry for the free show!! Anyone else has a question or wanna take your clothes off? I thought it was a surprise plan… but I was looking around… haha!

Others: Are you writing a lot of songs on the road as what you were last time?

Michelle: I actually have to admit that I haven’t written a song since March… haha… so I’m hoping that maybe during the holiday, after that I’ll be going for a short short break, and maybe it will make me creative again!
