I've always tried to get around writing love songs, I guess because I've always had a hard time saying, 'I love you.'

My songs tend to be about love. It drives some of the greatest songs. I'm looking forward to seeing what people make of my writing.

I try to make everything I write a little bit different. Those songs that go, 'I love you so much and you love me,' they're boring. If I'm going to write a love song, it's going to be a little bit tortuous.

A lot of the music I write is about love. Sometimes I won't understand how I am feeling until I write a song about it.

I don't know why, but I don't fancy writing love songs; I never have.

I have more of a desire to write songs about being an independent woman than being in love, songs about getting up and moving on even if I have a broken heart.

Writing songs has a therapeutic effect, and it either kills off love or wins the heart of the lover.

Love is one of my favorite things to talk about. Every song will be about losing it or finding it, seeing a guy and not knowing if you want to tell him how you feel yet. I guess I'm a hopeless romantic.

To make an album like 'Love Letter,' everything's got to be about love. Everything has to have a great feeling when you listen to it.

There are more love songs than anything else. If songs could make you do something we'd all love one another.
