amy ray quote from 2012-02-24: lung of love: a conversation with amy ray, the huffington post

mr: amy, in "glow," you talk about having the best day you ever had. let's be goofy, can you think of the best day you ever had?

ar: in that song, it's coming from a place of irony in some ways. i have so many moments... i am extremely passionate about life and at the same time, i'm always depressed, so everything's always happening at the same time for me. it's the best day and the worst day too. it's like not having filters or something like that. the best days i have are usually days where i'm out in the woods and something happens, like i see an amazing animal like a fox, or i get a glimpse of a wild pig or something that i never see. or crazy things happen. i live in the rural area of north georgia, so for me, those are these best days. it has little to do with humans and mostly to do with nature and what surrounds me.

mr: humans are horrid, aren't they.

ar: yeah i guess so. (laughs) i mean, they're worth it. dogs are easier, and hiking around in the woods and looking at weird plants are easier too, right?
