Famous Quotes & Sayings

J. Tillman

My last album as J. Tillman, 'Singing Ax,' that was really a premeditated death rattle of the aesthetic precedent I had set.

Pink always says soft. But that's not a bad thing! A lot of guys, when they allow themselves to try the color, they look in the mirror and say, 'Hey, I look pretty good in this.' Any of the rosy tones really vibrate well for the skin.

And that really locks it.

Virginia Postrel
