More quotes by Liz Phair
I'm really happy to be a mom, and I'm proud of the phase I'm in.
Liz Phair
I prance around and dance by myself to hip-hop songs in the mirror.
Liz Phair
It was a source of shame for my family that I was in rock and roll, which is so blue-collar. It just isn't done. And I felt it, too.
Liz Phair
You been around enough to see that if you think you're it, you better check with me.
Liz Phair
Composing gives me a chance to work in multiple dimensions and helps me pare down my melodies into what is essential. Learning new skills has always energized me and scoring has opened up a world of sonic possibilities.
Liz Phair
Picture being forced to talk endlessly about your feelings and listen and care when what you needed was just to get something done.
Liz Phair
I love scoring. Putting music to picture is a rewarding challenge and one that relies on interpretation of emotion - as in, what is the pivotal feeling in a scene and which character's point of view is driving it at any given moment?
Liz Phair
It seems to me like the Internet allows you to break that structure a little bit. You know, here's your CD that's going into stores, here's your EP that you offer online, here's a subscription for songs you recorded on the road, here's your live stuff streaming.
Liz Phair
I don't know what the future holds. Anything is possible.
Liz Phair
What does it mean when something changes how it's always been?
Liz Phair
And, you know, I still haven't been contacted by Mick Jagger, either!
Liz Phair
I love stretching myself musically.
Liz Phair
So how does Liz Phair feel about Lana Del Rey? Well, as a recording artist, I've been hated, I've been ridiculed, and conversely, hailed as the second coming. All that matters in the end is that I've been heard.
Liz Phair
I mean, I kind of remember... I'm 36 now, so it's kind of hard for me to relate to what it was like when I was 25, or 24, but I do remember a period in time when that's how I defined who I was, by the music I listened to and the movies I went to.
Liz Phair
I can feel it in my bones: I'm gonna spend my whole life alone.
Liz Phair
I knew that collaborating on songwriting would be difficult for a lot of people, because I was known very much, for my independence and the fact that I wrote these quirky songs that were not typical structure, not typical sound - you know, really original stuff.
Liz Phair
Yeah, I like to be the maker of the art. And I like and want the money. But I don't really dig being famous.
Liz Phair
I mean, I think about it, but I don't design my record to get a certain public response.
Liz Phair
Young kids don't have their identity, so everything is so important. Now I'm mature. I know who I am and I know what my thing is and I know what I'm bringing. It's very clear and defined.
Liz Phair
I don't always trust my own instincts. It would be nice if someone else would tell me what I should do with my life!
