Nothing feeds a hunger like a thirst
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.
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
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 just want to make music and make a living. I just have to find the means of doing that.

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.

Love is nothing, nothing, nothing like they say.
