#song

With songwriting I spend a lot of time living life, accruing all these experiences, journaling, and then by the time I get to the studio I'm teeming with the drive to write. ↗

I achieved something specially different with Love To Love You Baby and I Feel Love. These songs will endure. ↗

When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home. ↗

— Tecumseh

I don't feel comfortable doing interviews. My profession is music, and writing songs. That's what I do. I like to do it, but I hate to talk about it. ↗

I write songs. Then, I record them. And, later, maybe I perform them on stage. That's what I do. That's my job. Simple. ↗

If you're a pop singer, you don't need to evolve. You just get a set together, have some hit songs and play them over and over. ↗

If you have a recital to do, you have to memorize the songs. I never use music when I do recitals. It produces an instant barrier, both for yourself and the audience. ↗
