Twin Shadow/Quotes

"I mean, what is wrong with people? Everyone in this town has become such a cliché! I'm over all of it, really over it, I mean... there is no one original left, EVERYONE IS INTO THE SAME THINGS: Foreign movies, plaid shits, and facial hair... And authenticity. I'm the original authentic. I was here first, I was here before anyone even knew 'here' was a place. I. Am. Here!"

- Between songs "I'm DJ George and I'm glad I could expose you to this music! Now do your civic duty! Go make fun of someone for not knowing these bands!"

"Radio Mirror Park. If you have a request, we don't take emails, or bleets, or even phone calls. Get a fountain pen, and some paper and write us a letter. Seal it with wax from your own special seal, make a collage, do something artistic for once! Art is whatever you say it is, especially if you're charging other people for it. But Radio Mirror Park is the ultimate art. Art that disappears a few seconds later, and you could tell your friends how good it was, and they can all wish they were there. That's what fuels irony - envy."

"I cannot believe it! Someone stole my bike last week! What's wrong with people? I was just at a farmer's market, trying to find some locally made, organic cat litter. I don't have a cat, I just don't believe in water rights, so I use the stuff myself. It's really freeing. Anyway, the bike, yeah. I was gone, maybe, an hour. I came back, the bike - gone. And before you ask, no, it was not a fixie, I'm not a cliché, don't be ridiculous. It was a penny farthing. That is a bike with meaning."

"They say "You are what you eat", they also say "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush", which reminds me: I'm going to a chef tasting at a famous chef's house tonight, invite only. They're serving braised parakeet crab cakes. Organic, of course."

"The problem is, I suppose, friends, that when everyone wants to be alternative, then no one is alternative... and when everyone is original in exactly the same way, then no one is very original. and I've been worrying about this a lot and occasionally playing some freeform jazz while thinking about it. I sold my llama farm a long time ago, it was a metaphorical llama farm of course. Very post-irony."

"I'm the urban ninja of cool, and the thing that best defines me is the fact that I'm not a vain self-absorbed, plaid shirt and skinny jean-wearing crowd following narcissist. I plow my own furrow. I liked the eighties before you did, and I like it in the right way. I know it sucked, and I know why."
