More quotes by Liz Phair
Love is nothing, nothing, nothing like they say.
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
I am just like you and everyone else. I am trying to live my life as best I can.
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
Well, if you've got a one-in-a-million girl don't let her get away cause the next one-in-a-million girl is a million girls away.
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
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 have my head screwed on right. I haven't been this way in a long time.
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 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
There's even more stuff that I'd like to release, but I'm scared to, that's really, um, nerdy... not nerdy in a good way. Like, silly.
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
I prance around and dance by myself to hip-hop songs in the mirror.
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
I can't say I don't get nervous, but I really kind of enjoy performing now.
Liz Phair
I just want to make music and make a living. I just have to find the means of doing that.
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
Like, I kind of developed my musical style in a vacuum. Even though I listen to a lot of stuff, the way I wrote was in my bedroom, really privately. It's still the way I write, actually.
Liz Phair
I am comfortable performing now. I love it!
Liz Phair
I would argue that the uncomfortable feelings she elicits are simply the by-product of watching a woman wanting and taking like a man.
