Fun fact, when I booked Mitski to play at my college one of the sound guys told her she should listen to Vienna Teng. It was a kinda weird moment bc we were all pretty sure he was just saying it bc she’s another female Asian-American singer-songwriter. Anyways, Mitski had never heard of Vienna. So that’s my story!

Talking about her teenage years, she reveals, “I would have an one night stand but I would never sleep over. It had nothing to do with boundaries. It had everything to do with: I want to take my face off but I don’t want to do that in front of his person so I have to go home and take my make up off in private. I don’t want them to see my face without makeup.

PINK IN THE NIGHT:

I glow pink in the night in my roomI’ve been blossoming alone over youAnd I hear my heart breaking tonightI hear my heart breaking tonightDo you hear it too?
