It's interesting how songs can evolve. Sometimes I'll write a song that feels relevant in the moment, but four years later, I don't want to sing it anymore. Then something will happen in my life, and the song becomes relevant again.

My music must reflect whatever's going on in my mind, and my life needs to evolve for me to discover who it is I'm becoming.

Songs are really interesting in that way. Sometimes, they grow with you. Sometimes, you outgrow them.

My songwriting has evolved, just as I've evolved as a person.

People's lives change dramatically over such a long time period, and I think that if you're still vital, and you're still interested in writing and things like that, of course your music evolves and reflects where you are in your life.

I never see songs as permanent. I'm always in a state of revising everything.

It's hard to write new stuff when the songs you have written before are still changing and evolving. It would be like building something when the foundations there are not really solid.

The only thing that's a little tricky about it is sometimes people assume that if it's a new song, it's a reflection of what you're feeling or going through now.

I think music changes and it evolves.

As society changes, as politics change, as people change, certain songs still seem to resonate.
