thinking nashville rocks
I think in the world of rock music or whatever it's called - anything outside of Nashville - there's a lot more freedom within that industry to do whatever you want to do.
moving creativity cities
Any time there's a major change, whether it's going into a relationship, getting out of a relationship, moving to a new city, a death - that usually provides a catalyst for an explosion of creativity.
compassion want bad-manners
Have compassion for everyone you meet, even if they don’t want it.
song mean artist
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 crafts want
You should put time into learning your craft. It seems like people want success so quickly, way before they're ready.
talking
I'm dealing with things as they come along, and I'm talking about it
song ideas want
I usually have an idea of how I want a song to sound, but I don't always know how to get there
real writing people
I've had trouble being in relationships and writing. This has been a real problem for me. I don't know if it's because I'm not free to fantasize or create these fantasy things about other people
independent ideas people
I grew up in a very literate, very independent household where people spoke their ideas and were very supportive of helping each other find their own way
writing thinking people
People seemed to think, you get to a certain age or you get married or you, you're comfortable. And so now there's nothing to write about: that angst is gone. The youthful angst. And that just hasn't happened with me.
holiday singing sitting
I feel like it's really kind of a sit-down album, much in the same way I imagine Billie Holiday or someone sitting down in the studio and singing.
song mean loss
I mean, whose songs don't focus on tragedy and loss?
trying way my-own
I'm trying to get out of my own way
alzheimers littles way
The thing about Alzheimer's is that it's... it's sort of like all these little, small deaths along the way, before they actually physically die.
