Fiona Apple: “With the lyrics I’ve been writing my career, you can tell who I was hanging out with. I feel sad that I said ‘I don’t want to talk about my rape. It’s boring pain.’ That was not me. That was somebody else that was telling me that ‘That’s such a boring thing. I’m so bored with you.'”
this interview was from 2020 while she was promoting "fetch the boltcutters." the interview where she called her rape "boring pain" took place late 1999/early 2000.
Fiona is a real one, I appreciate her so much as an artist and a human. Her pandemic album “Fetch The Bolt Cutters” was incredible and got me through a really hard time. Can’t recommend it enough.

It’s called growth, and also Fiona is second to none when it comes to lyrics.
She’s the greatest poet of our time.
I have nothing but tremendous respect for Fiona Apple. She’s a goddamn genius and I can’t wait till the rest of the world catches up to her.

im a victim myself and her music resonates with me so much, especially for this exact reason. people like her make victims like myself feel not so alone, and putting our pain into diction. i truly hope she heals.

Lyrical genius. I hope one day I can see her live. The chances though are the same as getting Meg white out of hiding.

If Paul Thomas Anderson has no haters, I’m dead.
