There are no rules to writing a song.

I didn't know that there were many rules in music when I first started writing.

There aren't any rules, as far as anything-and that applies especially to writing songs, whatever gets the point across. So you're just kind of brought up to feel-in any field, if you say you can do it, do it. There it is.

I don't really know that there's any real rules for songwriting.

I don't write songs.

Music is the only thing I've ever known that doesn't have any rules at all.

There were no rules, other than that the song should sound good and be fun to play.

I don't care about the rules. In fact, if I don't break the rules at least 10 times in every song then I'm not doing my job properly.

There are as many ways to write songs as there are songs.
