A lot of songs are derivative of each other. Sometimes you need to take a departure from what you do to something that's slightly different in order to get inspiration.
As an artist, you never want to write the same song again, you always want to challenge yourself to writing in a different way.
Every song is different.
Songs come from all over the place. You can't predict what you're going to like. You might like something that doesn't fit right now. What was working for you at one point, something you've loved for years and years, when you get together with everybody, you think, this doesn't match up with what's going on with you personally.
If certain songs become popular enough to the point where I'll be playing them the rest of my life, I don't want them all to dwell on the same down moment that I'll have to keep reliving.
Music has to change. I don't want to stay the same forever.
A lot of songs are derivative of each other.
I think that all my albums are different enough where I don't feel like I did this the last time.
I don't think I've ever laid out a batch of songs that pick myself apart the way that these do.
I will have a song that I'm in love with for a couple of months and then I'll go to something else. That's just constantly changing. And sometimes I will go back to old one that I haven't heard for a long time.
