Juliana Hatfield Quotes

I’ve been sleeping through my life Now I’m waking up and I want to stand in the sunshine I have never been ecstatic Had a flower but it never bloomed In the darkness of my wasted youth It was hiding in the shadows Learning to become invisible Uncover me Picture Quote #1

Every song brings back memories, like I remember where I wrote all these songs. ‘Universal Heartbeat’ was my apartment in New York City. ‘My Sister’ was at my apartment in Boston. I remember places and I remember what I was thinking when I wrote it Picture Quote #1

I can’t believe I got a major-label record deal. My music was quirky, and my voice was so odd and high and girlish, it was like a weird novelty act Picture Quote #1

When I first started making music, I didn’t really know what I was doing. I just wanted to write songs. I didn’t have a concept. I didn’t think it through. I was just flailing around doing what comes naturally. It took me a really long time to step back and deal with what I was doing with any kind of perspective or self-awareness Picture Quote #1

I listen to NPR and baseball games when I’m in my car. I mean, exclusively NPR and baseball games, and that’s it, as far as the radio Picture Quote #1

Puerto Rico has a stray dog problem. Tens of thousands of homeless canines - hundreds of thousands, by some estimates - live and die on the streets and beaches all over this Caribbean island of almost four million people Picture Quote #1

I’m really conflicted about my role as a front-person. I hate the attention Picture Quote #1

Keanu Reeves is, like, the worst actor I’ve ever seen. I can’t believe he’s a movie star Picture Quote #1

My music - that’s the one area I won’t let myself be pushed around. But in other parts of my life, I’m a confused mess Picture Quote #1

I love playing in front of people. I feel powerful, ‘cause I don’t have to really say anything - I’m just singing Picture Quote #1

I’m pretty good with languages. I know a bit of French and actually want to live in France some day so that I can get fluent. I think it’d be tragic to go through life only knowing one language Picture Quote #1

I finished ‘Beautiful Creature,’ and I felt somewhat unfulfilled. I felt like this other side of me needed to be released. Some of the songs I left off the album weren’t intense enough to be what I wanted. They weren’t hard enough Picture Quote #1

A lot of so-called Christian souls are not fine. People need to look inside themselves and look at the lives they’re leading and fix themselves before they try to fix other people Picture Quote #1

I don’t feel bad or scared about getting older in terms of my looks or anything like that. I’m not afraid of my face changing. I enjoy seeing my face change. I think it’s really interesting. I wouldn’t want to have same face for my whole life. It would be boring to look at the same face in the mirror for 80 years Picture Quote #1

Puerto Ricans who find they can no longer afford to keep their pets often choose to drop their dogs, sometimes even whole litters of puppies, at a beach - sometimes under cover of night, in secret - rather than surrender the animal to a city or state-run shelter where the animals will face grim conditions and almost certain death by euthanasia Picture Quote #1

I’m just trying to get rid of all the mystery surrounding me and let people see what I’m thinking. So they can understand me and stop assuming things about me Picture Quote #1

I used to be an over-packer! It took me a while to be smart about what I brought with me. I used to tour with a huge bag full of clothes and another one full of shoes because I wanted to have choices. And I ended up wearing the same pair of shoes all the time! Picture Quote #1

Some of the songs are so crazy, the words are so crazy... it’s hard to believe I was so crazy Picture Quote #1

I have been a bridesmaid. Fortunately, the outfits were pretty tame. They were cream and black, but I still wouldn’t wear them out in public, though Picture Quote #1

People don’t analyze Britney Spears’ lyrics ‘cause they’re so obvious, you know? And her image is so kind of blah and mainstream that who really wants to read between the lines, because it’s all so out there in front of you and boring and white bread Picture Quote #1

Music is so hard. It’s a struggle to get people to care. It’s hard to make an impact in today’s world because people aren’t buying records anymore Picture Quote #1

I think everyone’s pretty much the same underneath. The collective unconscious is a real thing. There’s only a few emotions, and we all have them. There’s, like, seven emotions. So personal is universal. Everyone experiences confusion, joy and pain, just in different forms Picture Quote #1

I want to paint. That is probably going to sound so pretentious coming from someone who’s been a musician Picture Quote #1

To me, success was not having to have a boss and not having a day job. I’ve been living my own version of success since the early 90s when I first got signed. I haven’t had a job since then Picture Quote #1

My whole life was writing, recording and touring over and over again. At some point I realised I wasn’t enjoying myself any more Picture Quote #1

If I have to work in McDonalds, fine - I had a really great run and made a living at music for 20 years, and how many other people can say that? Picture Quote #1

I don’t buy a lot when I travel, but when I do, I like to send gifts from wherever I am. It’s fun to find the local post office Picture Quote #1

My growth as an artist and a person has been so slow and gradual, it’s hard to make a story out of it Picture Quote #1

My guitar playing has not developed as much as I think it could because I never practice. I only play when I’m writing or recording or when I’m playing on tour. When I’m sitting around at home, I never play Picture Quote #1

From the beginning, I’ve always had a knack for catchy melodies. But I went through a period when I was trying to be rock n’ roll and have a rock n’ roll attitude. I was fighting my nature by trying to play really hard and sing really hard. But at a certain point, I realized that I loved syrupy pop music with tons of harmony Picture Quote #1
