Quote

First and foremost, I consider myself a songwriter.

I'm a songwriter first.

I consider myself a songwriter before anything else. The fact that I have been able to write both of my records and establishing myself as a songwriter is super-important to me. Some people have that gift, where they can take on anything and make people believe it. I like to do a song from personal experience.

Writing for somebody else is really fun 'cause I consider myself a songwriter first and foremost.

I think if you're a good songwriter, that's what you are first - not a star or celebrity.

I'm not really a songwriter - I'm an interpreter. So in a sense I am an actress first and foremost. I act out the songs, and I lead with my heart.

I never thought of myself as a songwriter. I was just an artist writing songs, and they just happened to get placed.

Being a songwriter is really the base of being an artist, for me.

I always wanted to be an artist; being a songwriter for myself was always a must but being a songwriter for others has been a bonus.

I'm a songwriter, that's what I love.
