More quotes by Joanna Newsom
I have a voice that's obviously untrained - and I think untrainable - so I kind of secreted it away for a long time. Actually, I would write songs with lyrics when I was younger, but I would just sing in my head.
Joanna Newsom
I can understand someone not liking the voice or the songs.
Joanna Newsom
I am not doing something that it is experimental music in relation to classical music.
Joanna Newsom
I would happy for someone to download my music.
Joanna Newsom
The so-called positive press has in some ways been more difficult to swallow than the negative.
Joanna Newsom
I have a recording that I did of instrumental songs.
Joanna Newsom
I give away CDs at shows if someone wants a CD but doesn't have any money. I wouldn't want to do that forever.
Joanna Newsom
In high school, we studied a lot of poetical forms. I was really interested in the math that was involved and the strange live break ups. That gave me a great amount of respect for a rhymed stanza.
Joanna Newsom
People are often afraid for me. They think that I am going to break. I can make it through a set.
Joanna Newsom
I don't look at people's expressions, because I still get nervous when I play, especially when I first put the harp up there. I just try to tune - it takes me a half-hour to tune, and I get nervous if I look at anybody when I do it.
Joanna Newsom
I have a deep rooted folk sensibility that I can't get away from completely.
Joanna Newsom
I recorded harp first or singing first. I recorded it all together. Part of the reason is that I don't know how to play the songs without also singing. I forget how they progress. I don't think that any of them are verse, chorus, verse, and so on. They are not simple.
Joanna Newsom
I am producing sounds that people are not used to hearing from the harp.
Joanna Newsom
It broke my heart when I learned the moon had been passing the sun’s light off as its own.
Joanna Newsom
If I ever met Dolly Parton for sure, I would just not be able to say anything. I love her.
Joanna Newsom
People in San Francisco and the East Bay have shown interest, done interviews, and have come to shows. I guess that the news travels fast out of this island that we are on.
Joanna Newsom
I'm not a wanderer, which is funny because I'm on tour half the time. I'm a home, hearth and family kind of person.
Joanna Newsom
I wanted to write songs which I think is a different thing. I wanted to write music that is informed by folk music. The chord progressions are obvious references.
Joanna Newsom
You should listen to a lot of different music.
Joanna Newsom
What a woman does is open doors. And it is not a question of locking or unlocking.
Joanna Newsom
