I'm not like a professional writer with professional skills. Songs kind of come into my head the same way they did when I was a kid. I say I'm an overgrown kindergarten kid. I work on songs.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm not an extremely prolific writer. I don't write songs all the time.
I don't try to write songs that will further my career. I write about things that I care about. I don't have a career as much as I'm having an adventure with a guitar. I never liked the business way of doing it. You have to follow some sort of instinct.
I'm not like other writers. I'm not hung up on using my own songs. In fact, my sister Bunny always tells me I sing other people's songs better than my own. She says I loosen up and give the songs a different feel.
It's a gift that I have and I became good at it. When I heard my first song I didn't even know that I could write songs.
Music is just a really fun hobby that I do, because I'm actually really good about writing songs and producing. People don't realize this, but I am an excellent writer for artists.
I've always written songs, even when I wasn't doing anything with my personal life in music.
Sometimes you're trapped in writing songs and you don't have enough distance from what you do anymore and you need the talent and the years of other people to come and jump in.
I am a songwriter. I do get to put my personal experiences in song.
I don't really write songs anymore.
I've always written songs since I was a kid - always.
