More quotes by Aimee Mann
People don't buy records anymore. I don't know how people can support themselves.
Aimee Mann
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.
Aimee Mann
I certainly understand that we're all trying to make a living, but I'm not thinking about that when I'm making it. And if that's your sole motivation, it's going to reflect that narcissistic greed and you're going to hear it in the music.
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
Anybody who cares less about wanting to be cool, I think, is more 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.
Aimee Mann
If your standards are low, you're going to stop pretty early on in the process.
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
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
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.
Aimee Mann
I don't believe in asking people to spend $15 on something they've never heard before. That's just unreasonable.
Aimee Mann
Telling what you feel, trying to talk about what's important to you, does not make you weaker.
Aimee Mann
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
Knowing record labels and knowing the kinds of things they would object to-they just object to everything that's interesting.
Aimee Mann
When things are really great, it just means everything's in it's place.
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
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
It's in the dictionary. And when I find what it is, I'll write it down in case it comes up again, I'll be certain to avoid it.
Aimee Mann
I'm really into boxing. I go to a gym and I'm friends with a trainer who's a pretty famous boxing trainer and I train with him.
Aimee Mann
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.
