More quotes by Grimes
I like going crazy. And not just for art - I like extremes in general.
Grimes
I can't censor myself it's really important for me to say how I feel.
Grimes
Sometimes you find people who are magnetic, but once they get in front of a camera, they freak out and get weird.
Grimes
I write music better in the winter, I prefer making music when it's dark.
Grimes
I don't think I know anyone who has a steady job in Montreal.
Grimes
If you tell someone you're doing something innovative, they'll think you're doing something innovative.
Grimes
I don't want to have to compromise my morals in order to make a living.
Grimes
I grew up with four brothers, and in the back of my head I feel pretty masculine. It's always funny when I hear recordings of my voice, because it's so deep when I hear it in my head.
Grimes
Most of my music videos were made for under $200.
Grimes
From an early age I knew I would be unhappy if I wasn't doing something creative.
Grimes
Art gives me an outlet where I can be aggressive in a world where I usually can't be.
Grimes
I prefer making videos to making music.
Grimes
My great fear is that I'm the ultimate shallow person. I think about this kind of thing a lot, and about this phenomenon in our culture where people identify themselves with their interests. I've been trying not to think about it too much. It used to really upset me when people called me witch house.
Grimes
Obviously, I like things that are cute and aggressive at the same time, but I didn't want it to just be mini-bangs and lip-syncing in a dress. I need to get away from that stuff.
Grimes
I'm sad that it's uncool or offensive to talk about environmental or human rights issues.
Grimes
I think the internet is kind of redefining what it is to be a teenager. Because there's a lot of media that's aimed at teenagers that other people are getting into. But, conversely, pornography or stuff that's intended for adults is completely readily available to anyone, like teenagers.
Grimes
In America there's lot of cool cities, but in Canada there's, like, well, Vancouver, Toronto and Halifax may be cool, but they're so expensive. Montreal is the only city that's affordable but also has buses and culture.
Grimes
I listen to a lot of medieval music.
Grimes
Success, for me, is a song that can deliver shivers.
Grimes
Ugly girls generally don't become successful in music. And it sucks because it's a standard that just exists.
Grimes
