Heartbreak can definitely give you a deeper sensibility for writing songs. I drew on a lot of heartbreak when I was writing my first album, I didn't mean to but I just did.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I write about heartbreak because I like writing about sad things, but I'm writing happy songs, too!
Heartbreak was the impetus to me writing poems and music in the first place.
A song like 'Heartbreaker,' it's a song about learning - it's not necessarily a song about heartbreak. It's more than that. We write those songs to relive how we got over something.
I always prefer to write songs about emotional situations and heartbreak because I like getting into the character.
Heartbreak was the impetus to me writing poems and music in the first place. Over the years, I had my heart broken so badly that if I didn't find a way to get all the pain out, I was going to lose my mind. I was crazy! Like, wanting to slash tires and smash car windows. Crazy! I was so hurt that I had to write.
A lot of my heartbreak songs are inspired by things my sisters are going through, or friends.
Heartbreak has definitely been a big inspiration for me. You can write about a bad situation and just feel so much better afterwards. For me it's very therapeutic. But love in general - even when it's good - is always very inspiring.
I think anything that's creative really takes my mind off whatever it is that I'm going through in my life. If you're going through heartbreak, and you can write a song, it's a wonderful win-win, because it takes your mind off the heartbreak, and you get to vent.
Heartbreak is good fuel for country songs. And cheating.
I think heartbreak is something that you learn to live with as opposed to learn to forget.
