#songs

I don't want to hear songs about how sunshiny things are. I don't like songs that feel like radio candy... I like the ones that make you think, laugh or cry - they pull some kind of emotion out of you. ↗

I try to write relevant songs about life and whatever I'm going through and whatever people are going through. ↗

My next record I really just want it to be a collection of great songs, classic songs in a way. ↗

The best pop music is the songs that a group of people can dance to, but you can also listen to in your bed and cry. That's something obviously that The Beatles started and... so having that darkness there opens another door. ↗

I can't remember writing any of the songs that I've written. ↗

I'm not used to not having enough time to live with the songs. Usually, if I write something, I live with it for a little while. ↗

I doubt I'll be singing forever, because at some point people aren't going to want to hear my music, and I hope that I'll still get the opportunity to write songs. ↗

In the songs I can still be really really direct but in interviews when I'm explaining my songs I shouldn't be so direct about who they're about. ↗

It's warts and all in my songs, and I think that's why people can relate to them. ↗

The way I write my songs is that I have to believe what I'm writing about, and that's why they always end up being so personal - because the kind of artists I like, they convince me, they totally win me over straight away in that thing. Like, 'Oh my God, this song is totally about me.' ↗
