I Think That Music, Or

I've Never Been To Vegas, But I've Gambled All My Life.

To Make A Song Is A Gift, And Once It's Done It Keeps Evolving And Changing And Becomes A Tool To Interact With Other People. It's Like A Conversation.

Writing And Creating, Those Things Come To Me On Their Own. I Feel Like... You Sort Of Summon Them And It's Like Allowing The Universe To Enter Your Heart In An Entirely Different Way To What It Normally Does. It's Like Inviting That Energy Of The Universe To Enter Into Your Craft In A Way Where It Has A Meaning.

There Are Times When I Want To Be Plainspoken About My Feelings In A Song. But There Are Other Times When It's Really Good To Try And Get My Head Around Different Kinds Of Song Structures, Or Maybe I Might Get Turned On By Trying To Write A Song That Would Fit In This One Scene In A Movie. And By The End Of All This, You Just End Up With A Bunch Of Different Ideas. And Songs Are Really Just Ideas.

To Conceive Music, To Execute It In Front Of Others, To Make It So Others Can Do It...it Can Be Pretty Humbling, And Kind Of Scary. So Yeah, I Don't Really Feel In Competition With Anybody. Not Because I Feel Elitist, But Because I Have Enough Self-competition. I'm Always Struggling.
