LP I do have a little setup at home. I use Pro Tools and a Neumann mic. Neumann’s are my favorite. – LP
LP With Joe Walsh, that was kind of random. I’d written ‘Hi-Roller Baby’ for myself while I was at Island/Def Jam; literally, four years later, it got cut. Songs can be around for a long time. – LP
LP You go to a studio with a guitar, people are like, ‘Oh this girl’s going to write this song on a guitar.’ Or wants to, or whatever. You go with a ukulele, people are just like ‘Eh, well, whatever.’ They don’t really care. It’s a very non-threatening kind of instrument. – LP
LP Pop’ is not a bad word. What’s more interesting than changing the chemistry in a room in three minutes with a song? – LP
LP You could have written the biggest hit song, and all eyes are looking to you to write another one. It’s not a thankless job; it’s just an endless job. – LP
LP There is a pop element to what I do, but I’m going for a deeper, more left-of-center vibe. That’s the sound I’ve always been looking for. – LP
LP When the major labels didn’t work out the first time around, it taught me not to force things. You gotta let it flow. – LP
LP I’m not looking to be a gay poster child. If you’re gay, and I inspire you, I don’t want to put that down. But I’m not looking to be your gay savior. – LP
