But given the current situation, it would take a long time for me to get there," said Yang. I want to be a full-time comedian in the long-term. Norah Yang is a sales director by day but also a tri-lingual stand-up comedian at heart. "It's not my dream job, or I have to adapt … for me, it came naturally," Zhang explained. Zhang Zhihao has multiple labels on himself - he is a vlogger/ host/ journalist/ teacher, as a typical slasher is defined. They constantly feel the clash between societal values and their growing sense of self and personal values.Īccording to a survey conducted by Ctrip, the online travel portal, 85 percent of the post-90s believe a "modern person should have a multitude of interests."ĬGTN interviewed some of the slashers who have done great jobs. They are influenced by social media, which is all about personal identity, and they dig entrepreneurship. The slash-generation - which could also be called slashers or slash youths - means those who refuse to be defined or bound by just one personal identity. Many young people refuse to be confined to a narrow set of interests. I Live Too Fast To Die Young encompasses eleven lean, mean, raw slices of rock ‘n’ roll joy and it is clear that Michael Monroe continues to stride with a triumphant – and perhaps most importantly, defiant – roar to offer you a chance to let your hair down (or up!) and to enjoy the freedom of joyous celebration and expression.What is your dream job?

It takes more to survive and be here today than to self-destruct and die young!” Monroe affirms.Ī close friend of Monroe, Slash from Guns N’ Roses, throws down some lead guitar on the track. “I love reinventing old clichés,” Monroe laughs. “This one started life as just a song title – a tongue-in-cheek nod to Vivienne Westwood’s ‘Too Fast To Live, Too Young To Die’ t-shirts after I had been gifted one by a fan in Japan” guitarist Rich Jones explains. “It’s a reference to Michael’s seemingly boundless energy and the fact that he’s still kicking ass after all these years.” “I Live Too Fast To Die Young” is quintessential Monroe, playing with words and concepts in a playfully irreverent way and wrapping it all up in some proper kick-in-the-balls rock ‘n’ roll.
