It's more important for me to have a good record with good music and be part of a movie that's good and where the music is used in a really great way. That's the important thing. The other stuff you want to say about it, I don't care.

More quotes by Aimee Mann
The knock-out punch is always the one you never see coming.
Aimee Mann
I suppose I should be happy to be misread better be that than some of the other things I have become.
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
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
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
I might be stupid to think love is love, but I do.
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
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.'
Aimee Mann
You drew a bird that was here, a kind of sweet chanticleer. But with a terrible fear that the cage couldn't tame
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 not easy in this phosphorescent gloom telling waking dreams apart anyhow.
Aimee Mann
Everybody kind of understands, Oh yeah you take drugs and it does something to your brain and then you can't stop. It's easier to describe that shame, that horrible feeling of not being able to control your own life.
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
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
When things are really great, it just means everything's in it's place.
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
Save me from the ranks of the freaks who suspect they can never love anyone.
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
For me, there's a fine line between telling a story that's fictional with lots of details and then removing yourself too much from it, so it's bloodless, a little too fictional.
