We shouldn't censor ourselves based on the weak idea of looking cool. It's such a waste of potential awesomeness.
Neko Case
All I want to do is sing on other people's records.
Neko Case
I should have been an abortion. The only reason I wasn't was that my father was a Christian.
Neko Case
I don't think it's important for everyone necessarily, and I totally respect that because everyone writes differently.
Neko Case
I know that I can sing really loud. It's like having that really big Evinrude engine on the back of your fishing boat. But I've been trying to be more dynamic with my voice and not just singing on ten all of time out of terror.
Neko Case
Being the boss of your own career, you get used to having veto power and getting what you want, or as close to what you want as you have mapped out.
Neko Case
When you live in a lot of places, you can't help but have them become part of you. Technically, I am a Southerner, but I did not grow up in the South. So I'm a Southerner by accident, but a Washingtonian.
Neko Case
I would be a huge hypocrite if I didn't tell you that at one time in my life I thought the way that you made music was you got on a major label and you got famous.
Neko Case
I don't know anybody who doesn't hate being called alt.country. It just sounds like a website. I don't mind being called Americana, I don't mind being called country noir, or independent country is fine, but the words alt.country make me insane.
Neko Case
The most tender place in my heart is for strangers. I know it's unkind, but my own blood is much too dangerous.
Neko Case
Country music is completely punk-rock. It's the original punk-rock.
Neko Case
There's just kind of a sweetness about Canadians. Americans are a little more pushy, I mean, in a way that I enjoy - they're basically pushy because of their enthusiasm - we're a lot clumsier than other people.
Neko Case
I think my songwriting might be a little more on the darker side maybe.
Neko Case
I think I've kind of been mistaken for somebody who's trying to be a spokesperson for animal rights, and the fact is I'm not qualified to be a spokesperson. I am passionate about it, but I'm not trying to make other people do what I do.
Neko Case
I have this typical Ukrainian face. Even people who know my music don't recognize me most of the time, thank God.
Neko Case
I tried to have more than one emotion on the record.
Neko Case
I think I have a lot of empathy for animals and nature in general. Those things just make me comfortable. I grew up in the middle of nowhere, around a lot of animals. I feel for them.
Neko Case
I like to think that I'm not old yet.
Neko Case
Everyone has to kind of fend for themselves.
Neko Case
A live show is one of the last holdouts of a thing that makes you feel a part of a community, where you'll go and maybe meet your future wife or boyfriend, or you're taking your sister to her first show. These are the things that you remember later in your life.
