More quotes by Aimee Mann
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
I might be stupid to think love is love, but I do.
Aimee Mann
The knock-out punch is always the one you never see coming.
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
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.
Aimee Mann
It's funny, because my last record was a lot about isolation and people living in separate worlds that other people can't even understand, which drug addiction is the perfect negative example of.
Aimee Mann
If you're an artist trying to put out your own record on your own label, it's hard to get a distribution deal because no one wants to sign a deal with one entity. They want to sign distribution deals with labels, who have lots of product, lots of artists.
Aimee Mann
What's interesting to me is drama and conflict. Things aren't interesting without conflict and resolution of conflict - or striving towards a resolutions of conflict.
Aimee Mann
If your standards are low, you're going to stop pretty early on in the process.
Aimee Mann
Something gets lost when you translate. It's hard to keep straight. Perspective is every thing.
Aimee Mann
I don't consider myself a great writer, but I would like to think that I can at least proof- read.
Aimee Mann
People don't buy records anymore. I don't know how people can support themselves.
Aimee Mann
I have a 6-year-old, and his thing is to turn on Radio Disney in the car, and I get such an allergic reaction to listening to that music and the context into which it falls. I'm really working on him about that.
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.
Aimee Mann
One of the things I've really gotten past in the last couple of years is the idea of being made uncomfortable by the way things appear, rather than how things are. Clearly in this business you have to contend with a lot of that.
Aimee Mann
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.
Aimee Mann
I think, to be happy is to be interested and engaged.
Aimee Mann
Save me from the ranks of the freaks who suspect they can never love anyone.
Aimee Mann
I don't envy anybody trying to start a career right. There really is no music business left, in a lot of ways.
Aimee Mann
All that I need now is someone with the brains and the know-how to tell me what I want.
Aimee Mann
