Aimee Osbourne

“I think for me I'm always... I find myself to be a very curious person when something interests me and I find that I'm attracted to that mystery.”

“I can't be passionate about something or really give myself to something if I don't know it's a hundred percent authentic to who I am.”

“Sometimes... I can't believe what mum says or does when she's being really dramatic.”

“I never had to battle for my identity.”

“It's kind of like OK, I want to be a singer. And I felt if I would have stayed with the 'Osbournes' and done the whole Osbourne thing... I would have been typecasted right away before I had a chance to experience other things.”

“When you're famous, you have a certain sense of responsibility because so many people are looking at you for inspiration and for influence.”

“Kate Bush is a huge inspiration for me.”

“My dad's a man of few words.”

“Loss is something that I think is ultimately the number one struggle for humans.”

“I grew up playing the piano, but you know, as a rebellious child, I convinced myself that I hated it.”

“I've lived through a lot of dark environments one way or another while growing up and that has influenced my songwriting.”

“I was a little bit of a loner, but fascinated with emotions that people feel.”

“I don't really consider my music anything other than 'moody.' I don't know if that's a genre.”

“Growing up I really loved Mazzy Star, The Cranberries, Fiona Apple, Everything But The Girl. I listened to a lot of really random things too that I would find by myself. I would find Minnie Riperton albums that I would fall in love with, also, a lot of old country records.”

“Raining Gold' is about feeling trapped in a broken dynamic. Feeling so worn out and turned upside down from manipulation can make you feel like you're in a daze.”

“I'll be having lunch with my mum and she'll complain about the paparazzi outside. I tell her that she could have worn a beanie, but of course she never does. She loves it - it's how she chooses to connect with people. That's fine, I can respect that. But I'm the opposite. I always have been.”

“Instant fame, attention, getting flown around the world and those other fringe benefits never really rang true for me.”

“The 'Raining Gold' video naturally took on one of the messages behind the song, which is you should never assume anything about someone or a situation just because it looks a certain way on the surface.”

“I have always been me.”

“Once I accepted music was my path, I rebelled by wanting to do it my own way. I also didn't think it was respectful to my father's career and creativity to assume that I could jump on the back of all he had worked his entire life for.”
