“By the time [of modern] generation was coming of age sexually, there was already this idea of safe sex. But that didn't exist for me. I came out of the free-swinging '60s and '70s. It was free love, baby. That was it. We had very liberal sex-ed classes in 1973, a yearlong environmental science class, and then Women's Lib and Gay Liberation. So it's insane to go from that to Reagan and AIDS. It was like, "What happened? Where's my future?"” IdeasAgeSexClassGenerationsHappenedModernBabyGaySafeEnvironmentalAidsInsaneLiberationComing Of AgeMy FutureSexuallyFree LoveScience ClassGay LiberationEnvironmental Science Author:Michael Stipe
“I'm the youngest, too. When you're the youngest of a big family, people are like, "You're the baby, you're spoiled!" The fact of the matter is, when you're the youngest of a big family, by the time you're a teenager, your parents are insane. You're like, "Hey, I'm going roller-skating-" "You're not going roller-skating or you'll end up pregnant like your sister.

“I think the producers or whoever's doing the show are tripping so hard. They must be on acid. They live in this, like, weird grass mound and there's this 'sun' in the sky with this little baby's face that's just, like, bleaaargh-aarghagh. It's just so totally insane. It's such an acid thing, man. For kids!” ThinkingMenLittlesHardShowsKidsFacesSunSkyBabyInsaneProducersGrassAcidTripping Author:Dave Grohl
“We went to a remote Panda Base which was insane because inside there were several cribs which held about twenty baby pandas. They were all different sizes and they were all lying there in a long row. It was so cute, I could hardly stand it.

“I'm insane, I'm emotional, but I'd rather be that than a robot. So that's definitely something that I wanted to get out there.

“The whole entire album is about Cry Baby, you know, being super insecure and kind of like going through her emotions until she finally realizes that she's comfortable with how crazy and insane she is and I think that I've made the exact same kind of progression , and the growth...and I don't know, like I feel like I've definitely grown into who I am and, like, I think Cry Baby is just me.” ThinkingKnowsFeelsKindMadeWholeGrowthRealizingEmotionCrazyCryBabyComfortableAlbumsWho I AmInsaneInsecureProgressionCry Baby Author:Melanie Martinez
“As I was getting into the helicopter, a slightly nervous actor said to me, "Whatever you do, don't say to the helicopter pilot, 'Show me what this baby can do.'" So I of course, got into it and said, "Show me what this baby can do." And we just had this insane helicopter ride. It's the sort of thing you only get to do on movie sets. I'm so lucky to have done it and have that chance.” DoneChanceBabyLuckyInsaneNervousShow MeSo Lucky Author:Olivia Williams
