#songs

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

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. ↗

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. ↗

It's part of the calling to at least do a few songs in the show that give people some hope. There's so much hurt in this world and... music is such a great healing balm and a great way to forget your troubles. ↗

I hate negative songs; I won't sing them. It doesn't matter if it's sold 2 million more albums. ↗

I'm just writing songs about how I feel or about how people I know feel. ↗

It's just that a lot of songs that are popular right now, they don't have any meaning. ↗

I learn my songs by ear. ↗
