“People always like things that seem exotic.” — Jane Birkin Quote

“People always like things that seem exotic.”

“When my father died, my mother came back from being Mrs. Birkin to being Judy Campbell. She was a stunning actress. She came out of her shell. She was herself again: this very independent, funny, intellectual lady - and was able to perform again, which was her life before meeting my father squashed it out.”

“Any film I see at two o'clock in afternoon with my mother seems to cast a strange spell that means we both come out sobbing.”

“It's where you come from that's the strange, exotic, quirky, mad place.”

“My father was Bolivian, which makes me half-Bolivian. It's where I got some of my exotic features and certainly my skin tone.”

“Ultimately, what interests me is using exotic sounds in my songs.”
