The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Joanna Newsom
- I definitely don’t subscribe to the theory that more instruments, or more vocal tracks, harmony, or double tracking the voice, is a good thing. People do their early albums very stripped down, then each album becomes bloated.
- It broke my heart when I learned the moon had been passing the sun’s light off as its own.
- We deserve to know the light. And grow ever lighter and lighter.
- What a woman does is open doors. And it is not a question of locking or unlocking.
- Never get so attached to a poem that you forget the truth that lacks lyricism.
- I don’t think I’m abnormal, and I think that lets people down.
- I am producing sounds that people are not used to hearing from the harp.
- I have a voice that’s obviously untrained—and, I think, untrainable—so I kind of secreted it away for a long time. Actually, I would write songs with lyrics when I was younger, but I would just sing in my head.
- I wasn’t born of a whistle or milked from a thistle at twilight
No, I was all horns and thorns, springing out fully formed, knock-kneed, and upright.- I want to make music that somehow connects to the things that I love in American music.
