Creativity Quote by Kathy Valentine

There is a particular kind of humility baked into this line: the almost sheepish way a veteran musician admits she is available. "I haven't been approached" is both literal and quietly strategic, a soft flare shot into the sky. It tells you the door is closed, but not locked; if someone with the keys is listening, she is ready.

The phrase "make room for it" does more work than it seems. For artists who have lived through the boom-and-bust cycle of bands, reunions, label politics, and the relentless math of touring, time is not an abstract. It's calendars, bodies, obligations, and the psychic cost of going back. By framing it as a matter of "room", Valentine signals that returning wouldn't be a desperate grab at relevance. It would be a conscious rearrangement, an act of value.

"It was a really fun time" lands like a corrective. No mythology, no trauma-drenched origin story, no forced gravitas. In a culture that often demands either bitterness or a comeback narrative, she chooses pleasure as the headline. That choice is its own subtext: fun is evidence the past wasn't just productive, it was alive. It also reads like diplomacy, a way of honoring former collaborators without reopening old wounds.

Contextually, this is reunion-talk without the press-release sheen. It's the language of someone keeping her dignity intact while letting fans, industry people, and former bandmates know: ask, and she'll show up.
