Write your own songs. It helps you to mean what you're singing, which will then make it mean something to listeners.

All I try to do is to write music that feels meaningful to me, that has commitment and passion behind it.

I think songwriting is the ultimate form of being able to make anything that happens in your life productive.

I want to write songs people can sing along to. I can think of nothing more exciting than travelling the world and playing to audiences and having them sing your words along with you.

The key to songwriting is just to be able to observe, and put yourself in situations to be around people, and let those ideas come to you.

Mostly singing was cathartic, writing was cathartic, therapeutic. I don't think I had a goal, particularly, to sing or put it out there for anybody.

Songwriting is actually a really great outlet. I kind of recommend it. You get to sum up whatever is going on in your life in a song, then perform it really passionately.

I love songwriting. It's second to my love for singing in how I express myself.

Songwriting is something that's very daunting until you have your first successful song, I think.
