Always Quote by Lou Doillon
“I always loved singing, but I thought it was like drawing - just something you do in your own little corner to calm yourself down. But when my friend, the French songwriter Etienne Daho, listened to my songs, he was so moved that told me that I had to do a demo, share them with the world.”

![“Yeah, you always have to be there and remind people of you. It's complicated when you do music, or when you do anything in general. You need time. I don't know if it's because of the weather or what, but [Canadians] seem to have a relationship to time that I like very much.” quote by Lou Doillon](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/7f1/lou-doillon-10638_complicated_yeah-you-always-have-to-be-there-and-rem_359540.jpg)
