Fiona Apple Quotes About Songs

• Me gusta mucho encajar las palabras, pero sólo me gusta cuando es fácil, cuando va rodando por sí solo. Nunca borro nada [y] casi nunca escribo nada... La canción estará terminada antes de que la escriba... No escribo una canción si no me sirve para algo, si no siento que tengo que escribirla para sentirme mejor. Si no estás rebosante de algo, no hay nada que dar.

• Va como un nenúfar
  Suave en la superficie de sus pensamientos su cuerpo flota
  Sin el peso de la pasión o la intensidad
  Pero inconsciente de la profundidad sobre la que se asienta
  Y encuentra un hogar en mí
  Porque lo que el infortunio siembra, él sabe que mi toque cosechará

• "The way I feel about music -- any song, any style -- is that there is no right and wrong, only true and false. If the music and lyrics are conceived out of honesty and if the production of the song goes along with its original message, then what has been expressed is art, regardless of what anyone's opinion is of it. So things are a lots impler if you just tell the truth.

• I think I'm better at live shows than I used to be because I'm way more comfortable with the uncomfortable pauses between songs. Now, rather than trying to talk or do a costume change, I'll use those moments for myself. I listen to what other people are playing, or just rest, or dance, even though I don't know how to.

• One of my friends said to me, "Oh yeah, of course you aren't writing." So I was like, "The next time you see me, I'm gonna have a new song." I wrote "Criminal" in 45 minutes when everyone else went to lunch because I had to have a hit. I can force myself to do the work, but only if someone is right up behind me.

• You know, the age thing really bugs me. Do people have more of a right to not like what I say because I'm 19? I'm up here because of what I write. Obviously, I must know something, or I wouldn't have been nominated for Best New Artist. Sometimes it's like, "You're right. My mother wrote these songs."
