“I think, in a world of mouths, I want to be an ear.” — Jens Lekman Quote

“I think, in a world of mouths, I want to be an ear.”

“I went to Legoland in Denmark when I was five, I think, but I went to Germany when I was 17 to have a little adventure after graduation.”

“I think all the best songs do that: they offer some sort of hope and light in the darkness.”

“I did know that I could do scream very well. When I was in high school, I got a very strange job one Halloween filming screams for a radio station. I would just go into a soundstage and scream and scream and scream, and everybody would put on ear plugs, so I had an inkling.”

“The house I've bought in London, the holidays, everything has been bought from making people laugh, and if you'd said to me when I was 14 that's how I was going to make my living, I would have smiled from ear to ear.”

“I was the same kind of father as I was a harpist - I played by ear.”
