#song

I always sang standards because the songs I wrote for myself weren't as easy to sing. ↗

I'm still more comfortable with standards than with my own songs. ↗

Well, I make every song I sing personal. I've never chosen a song that wasn't. ↗

When I began making my own albums, the songs became funkier. They were more about the streets. ↗

Artie is a singer, and I'm a writer and player and a singer. We didn't work together on a creative level and prepare the songs. I did that. ↗

Not every song I write is ecstasy. And it can happen only one time. After that, when you sing the same melody and words, it's pleasure, but you don't get wiped out. ↗

Every song is something that I've been through or an emotion I've felt - like falling in love or heartbreak. ↗

I have those songs as well. It depends on what I'm going through in my life but I'm a huge fan of Bjork. Sometimes I get so emotional because she's so amazing. ↗

I really want to be just a singer-songwriter. That's who I am. ↗

We stand on our songs and we stand on the songs that we wrote for other people. That gives us a higher platform. ↗
