More quotes by Aimee Mann
It's not easy in this phosphorescent gloom telling waking dreams apart anyhow.
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
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.
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
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
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.
Aimee Mann
It really doesn't matter to me what people say about me anymore.
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.
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 don't believe in asking people to spend $15 on something they've never heard before. That's just unreasonable.
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
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.
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
Telling what you feel, trying to talk about what's important to you, does not make you weaker.
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
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
I might be stupid to think love is love, but I do.
Aimee Mann
I think, to be happy is to be interested and engaged.
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'm selling more records on my own than I did on major labels.
