Probably when I was about 16 or 17 I started writing. I wouldn’t call it poetry, even though I’ve referred to it as poetry a couple times. But I don’t think that’s right. It was more scribblings and stream of consciousness. Aldous Harding Read Quote
I believe in myself enough to not get hung up on what other people are doing, or what I should be writing, or the nature of how I’m writing. I’m just able. Aldous Harding Read Quote
Because I’m a nobody, surely it’s an interesting thing or a nice thing to see a nobody or just a regular person do things that makes you question your taste and feel things. Aldous Harding Read Quote
That was the biggest compliment that I can receive – making somebody wonder whether they have the problem, rather than what my problem is. Aldous Harding Read Quote
The ‘Aldous Harding’ record isn’t easily placed because it wasn’t trying to sound like anything. It was quite organic. Aldous Harding Read Quote
I knew what I liked, but I was never really obsessed with filling my life with music. Aldous Harding Read Quote
I know exactly what my songs are about and I try not to tell people, because a friend of mine really loves ‘Stop Your Tears’ and I made the mistake of telling her what it’s about one day. Now she has to distract herself and look elsewhere when I sing the last verse about being at the river with the baby, because she knows too much. Aldous Harding Read Quote
I am so much like my mother. When we’re in a room together everybody always comments on how spooky it is. I would say I get most of the musicality from my mum – and my dad, but I think my dad is the poet, you know. Aldous Harding Read Quote
I don’t have necessarily good taste. I have some really good taste and I have some really awful taste. I don’t see the difference, because when you use them together they can work. Aldous Harding Read Quote
