Quote

Nightly you retrace your steps again to return to the scene of the crime. It's uncanny how you hover in the air of the wreckage that you left behind.

Save me from the ranks of the freaks who suspect they can never love anyone.

I think, to be happy is to be interested and engaged.

Better take the keys and drive forever. Staying won't put these futures back together. All the perfect drugs and superheroes wouldn't be enough to bring me back to zero.
Aimee Mann
Image
I might be stupid to think love is love, but I do.
Aimee Mann
Image
But I can't confront the doubts I have. I can't admit that maybe the past was bad, and so, for the sake of momentum I'm condemning the future to death so it can match the past.

I thought everything was interesting. I wanted to go scuba diving and I wanted to learn how to surf. Because I grew up in the 60s girls were not allowed to do anything. As I've gotten older and realized that women can do things like that I thought, 'Why not? Now's the time.'

In the '70s, everybody thought drugs were just good times. People didn't really know about drug addiction, or that such a thing existed. When I grew up in the '70s I thought you had to take drugs. It was almost like I didn't think you had a choice.

At a major label you can start to feel that you're working for them, and that any work you do, you're never going to see any benefit.
Aimee Mann

Knowing record labels and knowing the kinds of things they would object to-they just object to everything that's interesting.
Aimee Mann

I probably would've kept slogging on that same chord change, because there's a tendency to have that happen. You get into the cadence in your mind, and it's hard to make the kind of left turn that you probably need to keep it really interesting.

You know what, the drummer is my manager. He's busy. And I'm busy. I don't need the dough, though. But having said that, there's a limit to how much bad music I wanna play. I did it when I was young, and some of the music was OK, but it wasn't great.

Life is a series of problems to figure out how to solve gracefully and with dignity. That is what life is and I can't see it any other way.

The knock-out punch is always the one you never see coming.

I'm selling more records on my own than I did on major labels.
Aimee Mann
Image
People don't buy records anymore. I don't know how people can support themselves.
Aimee Mann
Image
There's a lot of music that sounds like it's literally computer-generated, totally divorced from a guy sitting down at an instrument.
Aimee Mann

All that I need now is someone with the brains and the know-how to tell me what I want.

Everyone's just extracting meaning and feeling and emotion from almost every aspect of music, and I think that for me, it's a huge antidote to that to have a concept album.
