I made an album I'm very proud of, and that's about it.
By the end of the writing process, which is about 80 songs per album, I look at the material and think, what's going to make a difference in someone's life.
I've made over 25 studio albums, and I think probably I've made two real stinkers in my time, and some not-bad albums, and some really good albums. I'm proud of what I've done. In fact it's been a good ride.
I take a lot of pride in my songs.
For as long as I'm able to write songs and sing them, it's just about making them ones I feel proud to sing again and again.
It's nice to finally have a CD out which reflects my songwriting, my singing and the band that I have.
Those albums are so important to me because, for the first time, I was making my own music, paying for it, finding strengths in it, and going through the process of finding the right music for the record.
I'm still proud of what I've done, even if it hasn't been the biggest song on the radio or hasn't gone to number one.
Well you know, I've been into music my whole life, so to be able to put an album together with some of that music was awesome.
In the course of my life, I've made some happy songs but it's the more sort of like pathos-laden, emotional, melancholic music that either I make or that other people make that really resonates with me.
