Fiona Apple - Music The Book - interview, 2010 

her use of language is one of a kind.

In her famous speech she said "it's just stupid that I'm in this world" and she's not wrong. She doesn't belong there, she's something absolutely special, but we all are blessed to have her.

"I’m going to make music for myself, to get myself through things, and not think about what other people think about it. I don’t want to prove anything anymore. That can happen in the long run, but for now I do things because I want to do them, because I like to do them. I don’t do them for any other reason. There’s no past, there’s no present. It’s not like, “Oh, stay in the present” - it’s just basically, “I’m going to do what I’m going to do, and I’m going to have fun, and I’m going to decide when I’m going to stop doing it, and I’m going to decide when I start doing it.” I’m just going to move to move, it doesn’t matter what it looks like, it doesn’t matter what you think it looks like, it doesn’t matter what you think it means or what I think it means. It’s just happening; it just is. And that’s all right." - Fiona Apple interview Vulture.com 2020 www.vulture.com/amp/2020/04/fiona-apple-fetch-the-bolt-cutters-songs.html

Incredibly talented lady. Possibly the greatest female singer/songwriter ever.

A true artist, a beautiful person. Every album she has released is a masterpiece. I will never grow tired of listening to Fiona Apple's music.

She’s one of a kind, yet so easy to feel kindred to.

ICONIC BEST ARTIST OF ALL TIME

Everything she says pours from the soul. It makes me tear up. What a pure and full human being.

What a mind. Some people are ciphers, and some people are fertile fields. Even fewer are forests, or jungles. Fiona seems like an entire planet.

This is my favorite interview I've seen. She's so clear about what music is and means to her. All that layering of parts in Fetch the Bolt Cutters harkens back to those Christmas music parties.

She's such a beautiful soul.

“I’m high like heaven and I’m strong like music” indeed you are you gorgeous muse.

I've always thought music and poetry is like recycling emotion to me. Like, taking the stuff that are extra and we don't need and transform them to something of use for people. You're a huge inspiration Fiona!

Let's talk about those magnificent gloves

Always amazing Always had a special place in my heart during high school in the 90's Greetings and well wishes to all from san jose ca

I didn't even know this book existed until now. I will be buying a copy. Thank you and and have a nice day!

Fiona you are so inspiring! Incredible talented woman.... I deeply admire you ♥️

Fiona's authenticity is like ASMR for my soul. She could read the ingredients off a package and I'd feel grounded just being in her virtual presence. I appreciate this woman, and her music, to my core.

Amazing Fiona

I never had music buddies, always did things on my own. I understand what she means about playing with people. It must be the best, but i still wrote my songs, couldn't avoid it, really.

Life is fun we should play that’s what kids do an how they learn best , your a teacher an music is your way of teaching . Love Papa $.

I would like to hear this without the music throughout. She's music enough. :)

I'm so in love with her it almost hurts

la amo

Music is life an you are music . Love Papa Les Cash$.

Guauuu! Someone who doesn´t love her?

1:04 anyone know the name of this game she's talking about? would make an interesting game over Zoom

What year was this interview shoot?

2nd most beautiful woman to me 1st is my Melissa

Lol Freddie Mercury said the same thing in a way about art being a form of defecation.👍

I think she meant "music helps us process life" instead of "shitting" lmfao

Great interview... Not to put her down, does she look like she's on coke or speen to anybody else... One addict to another. I can always tell. So proud of her being sober now.
