The orchestra's an amazing instrument, but I don't want to just arrange my songs for it. I think that might be kind of boring and a little bit overdramatic, perhaps. I'm still just having too much fun doing it my way, for the time being.

I can't relate to the process of just disappearing and writing a record, all at the same time, followed by the sort of drudgery of going out on tour and trying to recreate the record, playing the same 12 songs every night.
Andrew Bird

The idea of writing songs because you're depressed and you need to communicate it somehow, that isn't really true for me.
Andrew Bird

Im thankful for my songs being at the top of the charts but I am human - I think people still have to remember that.

So don't get me wrong, I love my songs, and I still love hearing them. That's history, baby.
Ronnie Spector

I'm quite arty. I didn't know whether to become an artist or musician but I realised I could paint with music. All my songs have colours.
Ed Sheeran

I'm feeling more and more thoughts that aren't songs, just reflections. I'm always been very shy and in some ways a prisoner in one language and I feel that the liberation of creativity has to be in all senses. So I've been deciding to publishing something very simple but very small at the same time, nothing egocentric.

For me, the most difficult thing is that I am learning melodies on guitar from some songs whose melodies were not meant to be played on guitar. Ever. They were intended mostly for keyboards or melodic percussion.
Dweezil Zappa
Image
There are certain songs I cannot hear because they are so personal that it hurts me to listen.
Amy Winehouse
Image
I write songs about stuff that I can't really get past personally - and then I write a song about it and I feel better.
Amy Winehouse
Image
All the songs I write are about human dynamics, whether it's with girlfriends, boyfriends, or family.

But to make a holiday record that involves favorite American songs and then also get to sing about Jesus birth, it just seemed like a real easy, subtle way to combine a couple of things that I love.
Amy Grant
Image
Sometimes with one I love, I fill myself with rage, for fear I effuse unreturn'd love But now I think there is no unreturn'd love—the pay is certain, one way or another (I loved a certain person ardently, and my love was not return'd Yet out of that, I have written these songs.)
Walt Whitman
Image
I pinch myself every night when I hear the overture starting. I'm so overwhelmed by the whole process, and humbled and giddy all at the same time because I can't believe it's me that gets to sing these songs every night.
Tituss Burgess
Image
I'm not afraid to be bluntly honest in my songs, even if it means I'm discovering things about myself that I'd rather not.
Amos Lee
Image
I think you want to write a song that's like the songs you are into.
Craig Finn

My whole career was launched in such sort of poptastic style with 'Kids In America', and I liked - and like - being poptastic. Songs big on melody, high on energy, lots of attitude... what's wrong with that?
Kim Wilde

I have written some songs, but I would really call what I’ve done poetry at the end of the day, because I’ll sit with my guitar for hours and hours on end for, like, a week and then I won’t touch it for a month. I also just have no confidence. And you know what? I don’t have time, because I’d rather be doing other things, like knitting.
Amanda Seyfried
Image
I get so many ideas for songs, but I'm so seldom disciplined enough to sit down and crank them out.
Amanda Palmer
Image
Every album is just a greatest hits of whatever songs are on a pile when I go in to make a record.
Amanda Palmer
Image
I didn't want to be a big record mogul and all that stuff. I just wanted to write songs and make people laugh.
Berry Gordy
Image
Music and songs are written at different periods of time, at different times in your life. They reflect the feelings you have and to be honest, I quite like having positive emotions.
Scott Ian
Image
Love is the answer, said the songs, and that's OK. It was OK, I supposed, as an answer. But no more than that. It was not a solution it wasn't really even an answer, just a reply.
Lorrie Moore

The great Gaels of Ireland are the men that God made mad, For all their wars are merry, and all their songs are sad.
