Courtney Barnett Thinking Quotations

I try to take notes of things that happen that I think are important or interesting or just little tidbits here and there that happen in life. And some of it's even just one line or like a saying and I just go off that.

The music, I think, is just as important as the lyrics; it portrays the emotion of the song. I play the kind of music that I want to listen to.

I reckon that growing up, listening to so much different music, I think over time I just kind of sucked it all in and it probably comes back out through my music.

People should be free to take whatever they want from music and I think that over time I realized that different people always find different things in my songs, which is really good.

I think that if people get my music, then they get what my message is.

I think that a good song is catchy, and a great song is not catchy - but it has a deeper meaning.

I think everyone's so scared of other people judging them.

I liked the idea of being a photographer, just that you take this one picture of this one thing that'll never happen again - it's a bit weird when you think about it.
