Lykke Li

I've always been a person that is searching for truth and always wants to go further, deeper.

During the day, I don't wear much makeup; I only put on makeup for the show.

I knew I wanted to be an artist, but I never took music lessons. I was just playing around in front of the mirror and being silly, then suddenly I started making songs.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

It's hard to imagine anyone interested in film not being a fan of Alfred Hitchcock because he's such a key influence on the entire history of cinema - it's hard to escape his shadow.
