Some songs go super-quick; some take a really long time.

I actually had a week where I literally wrote four songs and all of them are on my album. But sometimes you'll go a week where you'll write songs and they never see the light of day. So that process takes a long time.

It doesn't take long to make catchy songs. That's not my problem.

Any song I have to work on longer than a day, I just leave it. It's not gonna work. Everything that's good is really instant.

It usually takes me 20 to 90 minutes to write a song because once I start, I don't stop. If I start writing a song, and you try to have a conversation with me, you're a bad person.

It's frustrating to do albums that you think are worth listening to, but it's just so difficult to cut through.

So many good songs get written fast, because you know exactly what has to work.

If I could make albums quicker, I'd be on a roll wouldn't I? Everything just seems to take so much time. I don't know why. Time... evaporates.

Most of the time, songs that I write end up being finished in 30 minutes or less.
