More quotes by Lykke Li
I want to get my music out there. I enjoy playing shows I just don't enjoy airports. I want to be more creative, but it's hard to get into that zone on tour.

I was going on this desert adventure with some friends and we were like, How amazing would it be to just drag all these mirrors out there?

I felt such a deep connection with dolphins. I felt like they were the only ones who understood me.

I hung out with some crazy desert people. One guy was just walking around with only shorts on - he'd been walking with bare feet for the last two years. He was totally scarred and eating on all fours like a dog.

I'm a girl from Sweden. I took a lot of risks and went to New York by myself when I was 19 just because I read about it in a few books. I came here knowing nobody, having no money, and now I'm doing all these things like making records and videos every day.

I was inspired by [Michelangelo] Antonioni's Red Desert - very big and moody.

It's not a very sane thing to try to be great all the time. You want to make something magical you want to make something wonderful you want to give to everybody you want to heal people you want to still be inspired. That's not easy.
Lykke Li
Los Angeles is such a mysterious place because there's so much evil in that city, but there's also so much light. You can be totally alone on a hillside and I love that kind of secluded, deserted rawness.
Lykke Li
I'm really depressing. Some people watch comedy to relax. I watch 21 Grams. I can recognize sadness and tragedy really easily because it's been with me forever.
Lykke Li
I wanted to create something really aggressive and psychedelic
Lykke Li
I probably thought that about most of the things I did. But you wind up in situations where you have to make decisions very quickly, and you just go for it a lot of the time.

I was 19 when I recorded my first album, and I've been exposed to many things during these last few years all the baby fat is gone.
Lykke Li
After you've been wounded a few times, it's hard to let somebody get that deep again.

My whole art is based on escaping life and reality, which might not the best tendency to have when you're trying to be a good person in general. But people can escape into my world easily - artists are supposed to create a keyhole that people can look into.
