Writing Quotes by Neko Case

Being in two full-time rock bands is pretty impossible. I love to tour but I have a dog and I want to see him. And, being a songwriter, you have to have experiences and do things. You can’t just go on tour all the time, otherwise you get nothing to write about. It’s finally at a point where the balance is perfectly right.

I remember people would talk about Country Music like it was this sexist, lame thing. Well, no, because Dolly Parton is writing songs and playing her guitar and producing. She’s doing it all and she’s got hits on the radio.

I try not to be overly literal. When I’m writing songs, I write down a lot of words, and then I try to simplify it. I like to give people hints or words that make visual pictures for them.

I was raised to be modest to the point of fanaticism. In my family, we don’t talk about ourselves to each other. Vanity is considered the worst possible sin. I’ve gotten better about having to describe things. If you’re going to make a record and people are going to write about you, it’s your responsibility to answer questions. It’s validating – I’m just very clumsy.
