people come-up interpretation
I like to hear what other people's interpretations are, because people come up with things I'd never thought about.
mind someday soundtracks
I wouldn't mind doing a soundtrack someday.
beach art thinking
We feel more and more intensely about the music we make. It's unexpected, and not always what you would think of in Beach House. It's all art in the end. We aren't making records because we have to; it's because it's what we want to express.
beach people house
With us, people caught on to something on our third album, and that will never be repeated. Basically, I don't really have any complaints about the way that Beach House has grown. I feel like we're still in control of what we're doing, and it's a great time in our existence.
nice school voice
The guys in high school were like, "You've got a nice voice; you should keep singing," but I never honestly thought that one day I'd be a singer. When you're young, you don't see the signs.
flower hair dresses
I don't wear dresses and flowers in my hair and float around!
artist long
As long as artists can make something, artists will continue to survive.
fashion people insane
I like to find the beauty in the ugly. When I'm in a thrift store, I gravitate toward pieces I know I'll wear a ton, and insane pieces that I'm sure most people would consider gross. But I find them inspiring. Our van is currently stocked with some of my random findings from this tour. Maybe I'll call my aesthetic 'van fashion.
voice identity trying
I really do try to let the identity or voice inside come out.
musical partners yeah
Yeah, it's a lot harder to find a musical partner than a love partner.
internet
I don't like to read the Internet; I'm not aware of what's going on.
mind world want
I personally do not listen to a lot of music. It helps keep my mind free. I don't want to sound like someone else from the get-go. I want to express myself and the world in my head.
interesting trying want
If a psychiatrist would analyze [the lyrics], I'm sure they'd come up with something interesting. I really don't try to twist them. I don't want to slash things.
song gun trying
It's always about trying to make everything go with the music, like a script. It's not like, 'Let's have a confetti gun!' If I ever have one of those, it will be because it's absolutely the right thing at the moment in the song. I can't just go get a confetti gun.
