Meaning
This reads as a statement about loving the full work of being a musician, not just the performance itself. It points to the pleasure of shaping the whole presentation, from songs onstage to the visual details around an album, and can be taken to mean that creative control matters as much as applause. It lands when an artist talks about enjoying the parts that fans rarely see.
