More quotes by Liz Phair
Music is sound. It's a wave. It's going out and coming back, and it's bouncing off.
Liz Phair
I have my head screwed on right. I haven't been this way in a long time.
Liz Phair
I wear clothes that most people in the Midwest would probably deem inappropriate at my age. And I rock a bikini all summer long. I know that it's not normal, but I just don't care. I live once.
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
The big news already broke. The file-sharing and all that stuff, it's a done deal. And I think figuring out how to make that a fair exchange for the people that make music is still an issue
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 don't have the same access or time to gain access to music the way I used to.
Liz Phair
That's what music is to me. Like, stuff that I really like to play loud. And I've got my quiet CDs, too, that I listen to around the house, but if you can't go there, then... Everyone gets so upset with me, I can't win
Liz Phair
I've lost touch with a lot of that boutique-type music just because of my age, and raising my son and the multiple jobs I have at this point.
Liz Phair
Women artists need to break barriers in order for women's experience to be valuable.
Liz Phair
And, you know, I still haven't been contacted by Mick Jagger, either!
Liz Phair
I'm competitive, so I don't like to feel marginalized by the people who sell a lot of records.
Liz Phair
No. You know what really bugs me about my videos? When they can't figure out what to do, they just have me change clothes five times.
Liz Phair
I am a feminist, and I define myself: Be yourself, because if you can get away with it, that is the ultimate feminist act.
Liz Phair
Now, in music, it seems more like the popular crowd suppresses anyone who is different.
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
I don't know it just seemed like the cooler guys are playing Xbox. At least the ones I know.
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!
Liz Phair
Women's bodies are used to sell anything and everything because it works, it grabs people's attention, and advertisers aren't going to stop using something that works.
Liz Phair
I'm really happy to be a mom, and I'm proud of the phase I'm in.
