It's just interesting how people relate my success when I would like to think that I worked my ass off for a reason and that it's about the music and not because I was on a TV show.

More quotes by Melanie Martinez
I'm gonna write from personal experience, from emotion, from whatever the hell I'm feeling that day.
Melanie Martinez
I love Nicoletta Ceccoli , and I love Tim Burton movies. So those are like my biggest inspirations I think.

Basically it's the idea of celebrities being in the spotlight and just because you think that they should be perfect, that they're still human and they still have flaws just like everyone else. So that was the real meaning behind Dollhouse, at least how it related to me because it's something I was annoyed with at the time.
Melanie Martinez
I go with what I like and I generally just cling to things that are pastel and remind me of being a little kid. It's just what it is right now, but I go through phases.
Melanie Martinez
Make sure this [music industry] is what you love to do, and you can't imagine doing anything else.
Melanie Martinez
I have a few songs that I'm figuring out and writing. I'm still figuring out the whole concept and how it's gonna connect to Cry Baby, but I have some ideas, yes.
Melanie Martinez
I'll always definitely strive to write songs that are going to help people feel confident in themselves.
Melanie Martinez
So like what I want to do is connect all of my albums and make it tell a bigger kind of story. So the first album is very focused on her family life and her love life.

I never had a lot of friends growing up so having this insane amount of love and support really means a lot to me.
Melanie Martinez
If you say something that is a little unsafe to say but you feel strongly and passionate about it, a lot of people can attack you and call you a bad role model just because they don't agree with your views, but in reality we're all different and we're all unique in our own way and we all have different thoughts.
Melanie Martinez
Cry Baby is a character so I think that the next album is going to be about a specific thing in her life or another place in her world. It's going to be a bit deeper into a bigger picture.
Melanie Martinez
I think the transition between singing covers on a reality show to being able to do my own thing was really exciting. I'm no longer singing covers every second, and people are actually getting to hear my own original music.
Melanie Martinez
I think that every decision I make in my life is based off of an emotion - and it definitely hurts me in some situations, and helps in some situations, like obviously writing and stuff is my favourite thing to do because I get to use all of my emotions and express them in that way.
Melanie Martinez
I listen to a lot of music. But I definitely haven't looked at an artist and like thought I want to have a song like this.
Melanie Martinez
Cry Baby wasn't necessarily a baby theme but I understand what they're saying. So like, Cry Baby is definitely a remaining character throughout all of my albums.
Melanie Martinez
It's just weird because like when I was writing Cry Baby I like...the only thing that I was thinking about, when writing it, was the concepts and the visuals, and the way that it sounded kind of happened naturally.
Melanie Martinez
I'm happy that I get to work with people that I enjoy being around. It's really cool when people understand and want to help your vision and are like rooting for you. I just, I love them a lot.
Melanie Martinez
[My style in three words] youthful, sweet, and diverse.
Melanie Martinez
When I first started writing the album, Cry Baby was a song that I really wanted to write because it represented all of these personal insecurities that I had for a long time.
Melanie Martinez
I definitely feel like if I put out a song that was like me being super vulnerable, people would look as me as weak. I don't know if that has to do with me being a girl, or if that really has to do with anything, but I'm sure.
