After a while, though, you realize that a whole slew of young singer-songwriter piano players are getting compared to you. That's when you feel the passage of time is occurring.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
And this whole period of time of gradually working at being a better guitar player and songwriter have gradually led me to the point where I feel I'm doing a clearer representation of the thing that I've been feeling inside me since I was four years old.
I only like artists older than myself. Time is so important. It's always been the same way, I guess.
I think, for one thing, all of us remember those teenage years and those songs that we fell in love with and the music scene that we were part of. So, in a certain way, music cuts through time like almost nothing else. You know, it makes us feel like we're back in an earlier moment.
I think I've become a much better singer and a much better player. Years and years of playing a couple of hours every day will do that.
I feel like I write songs for the future or something. Not in an arrogant way, but I feel like maybe my songs were, like, before their time or something.
I've found that music allows years to fold like an accordion over each other, so I guess you don't feel the passage of time as much.
What the world is saying to us human beings is, 'Don't stick to the old ways, learn to think anew.' And that's what musicians do every day.
I think no matter what kind of music you play, there will be moments when you feel like it's all been done before.
Most good things happen with time; especially music, which needs time to breathe and to find its own way.
I think that my past stands me in good stead in that it does have a certain strength for musicians.
