First thing, I throw on some jeans, a T-shirt and my Keds sneakers and make coffee. That is actually my favorite time of day. That is when I do my songwriting, when I am in writing mode. ↗

I feel a lot more comfortable being me these days. I'm constantly told that my work is good. A lot of fans and a lot of other artists say my songs and albums mean a lot to them. Isn't that what's important? ↗

People let their own hang-ups become the obstacles between them and personal happiness. ↗

I love Emmylou Harris's version of my song, 'Sweet Old World.' Her intonation is great. ↗

I mean, whose songs don't focus on tragedy and loss? ↗

I started writing songs, I guess, when I was about 13 or 14, but I didn't know if they were good enough yet or anything. ↗

I usually have an idea of how I want a song to sound, but I don't always know how to get there. ↗

I write the songs, go in and record them, then I listen to everything and decide how it all fits together. ↗

#everything #fits #go #how #i

My approach to recording and all that is pretty organic. It just has to do with all the songs I wrote; go in and record them. ↗

Of course, I'm older now. I'm in a different place in my life than when I wrote the songs for 'Car Wheels' or 'Essence' or whatever. Different things were going on. ↗
