“I don't think it's something that people would ask a man. Some people make a huge deal out of the fact that I sing about drinking all the time, but I don't think of it as singing about drinking. It's singing about emotions, and sometimes that centers around drinking. To me, I'm writing about things that I'm going through that mean something to me, but some people just reduce it to: "She must drink all the time." But if a guy sings about that sort of thing, no one really looks twice.” PeopleThinkingMenWritingMeanSometimesGuyEmotionDrinkSingingDrinking Author:Lydia Loveless
“When I first started playing, I definitely had a younger scum-punk crowd, but as my music developed more and after I started playing electric guitar - you'd think it would be opposite - but a lot of people were like, "You've changed." And I have more of an older audience now.” PeopleThinkingAudienceChangedLike YouElectric Author:Lydia Loveless
“There's always a handful of 40-year-old dudes. I don't know why that is exactly. I don't know if it's like my looks or the music or what, but I seem to just really appeal to that age group. A lot of people have said to me, "What's with all the old men?," and they laugh. But to me, those are my fans and I'm happy they exist.” PeopleMenAgeLaughingOld Man Author:Lydia Loveless
“When you move to the city, you really notice how ugly people can be. And that's something you don't really have to deal with in the country. So I do miss that.” PeopleCountryMovingMissingUglyUgly People Author:Lydia Loveless
“When I do interviews, sometimes I'll just be like "Why the hell did I say that?" because after I hang up the phone I realize there were so many things I could have said, but my brain just goes on lockdown. There's something about having conversations with people that's so much different from just singing and playing guitar. And I think a lot of people are actually performers because of that. I can't really explain why. It's like just the only chance you have in life to feel really good and outgoing.” PeopleThinkingDifferentSometimesRealizingChanceBrainHellSingingOutgoing Author:Lydia Loveless
