Danny Elfman conquers his stage fright for rare show

Berikut kutipan dari artikel Birmingham Mail tanggal 4 Oktober:

“I had great stage fright for 23 years, even when I was performing with my band Oingo Boingo, and I’ve never got over it. When I stopped performing, I felt no sense of regret at all. I was relieved not to have the anxiety any more.

“One of my greatest fears is still speaking in front of an audience, that’s even worse than singing. I had to give away an award at an event recently and even though the audience was friendly, my voice was shaking.

“When they asked me to sing some of Jack Skellington’s songs from The Nightmare Before Christmas, live for the first time in these concerts, I said ‘Sure, why not?’. Now I’m thinking ‘oh my god, what have I done?’.
