I was inspired a little while before The Voice to dye my hair half black half blonde by Cruella De Vil of 101 Dalmatians. One day I was watching it and I told my mom I was going to dye my hair like Cruella's, and she thought I was joking. I came home from the salon, and she didn't talk to me for a few days!
Melanie MartinezI definitely fall in love quickly, and I'm very in love with being in love. But it is hard for me to write about love.
Melanie MartinezI'll always definitely strive to write songs that are going to help people feel confident in themselves.
Melanie MartinezI don't really think about what people think of my music, and how they listen to it or what my demographic is.
Melanie MartinezI'm happy that I get to work with people that I enjoy being around. It's really cool when people understand and want to help your vision and are like rooting for you. I just, I love them a lot.
Melanie MartinezProbably "Mrs. Potato Head" or "Training Wheels". "Mrs. Potato Head" because it was the hardest song to write and it took me a while to finish it and feel good about the lyrical content. But I've had that idea in my head for so long, especially the visuals - pulling apart a Mrs. Potato face and how that doubled as a meaning for plastic surgery. "Training Wheels" because it's the only love song on the album.
