"Music has the power to make people feel what you want them to feel. Music can be manipulative, enriching, oppressive. It’s good that people use it for the best reasons" - Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett says in a Rolling Stone interview with St. Vincent. She described her amazement by people being amazed by her music: "I’ve had moments of being onstage somewhere like Brazil, where English is not the crowd’s first language, and I’d see a crowd know every single word to these songs. And I can’t believe it. It actually moved me so much that I started crying in the middle of my song".
