I write songs about stuff that I can't really get past personally - and then I write a song about it and I feel better.

I write and sing about whatever I am able to understand and feel.

I'm still learning a lot as a songwriter. I try to write down and make a note of ideas that I cross paths with on a day-to-day basis, whether it be a conversation or something I hear on the radio, seeing a movie, or just thoughts in my head as I'm walking down the street.

I've started getting acclimated to writing on the road and on the spot. I just let whatever I feel at the time come out, instead of really sitting there and taking days to write just one song.

It's funny, when I'm not on the road or doing stuff with Bad Company - or whatever- I've always written songs galore... a lot of stuff people don't even hear.

I write songs about real things... The subject dictates the mood and it goes from there, really.

Sometime I write a song off a central idea, instead of emotion.

I tend to write songs critiquing myself. The best way for me to deal with stuff is to write a song about it... That's not to say all my songs are like that.

It's part of what I do at my piano - the hymns. And then I write.
