"I want to suggest a feeling. It's ridiculous to assume you can state an opinion. Somebody else can never relate to the lyric in the same way because their whole experience is different. You can only suggest, then people add their own history and experience to the lyrics"

- Danielle Dax

About this Quote

This quote by Danielle Dax recommends that it is difficult to properly convey an opinion or feeling through words alone. Rather, it is more effective to recommend a feeling or viewpoint, as this allows the listener to interpret the lyrics in their own method. Everyone has their own distinct experiences and history, so it is impossible for somebody to relate to the lyrics in the same way as someone else. By recommending a sensation or opinion, the listener has the ability to add their own experiences and history to the lyrics, making the tune more meaningful to them. This quote encourages us to think more deeply about the lyrics of songs and how they can be translated differently by different individuals.
