Yeah, The World Would Swing

Songwriting Ability Is A Gift. After A While, You Come To Realize, "i've Really Been Blessed. I Can Write These Things And It Makes Me Happy, And It Makes Millions Of People Happy." It's An Obligation, It's Bigger Than You. It's The Only True Magic I Know. It's Not Pulling A Rabbit Out Of A Hat; It's Real. It's Your Soul Floating Out To Theirs.

You're Dealing In Magic-it's This Intangible Thing That Has To Happen. And To Seek It Out Too Much Might Not Be A Good Idea. Because, You Know, It's Very Shy, Too. But Once You've Got The Essence Of Them, You Can Work Songs And Improve Them. You See If There's A Better Word, Or A Better Change.

I Think Sometimes Maybe You're Going To Connect With The Audience More Than Others, But The Journey Is About Getting All There Is To Get Out Of This Group Of People.

I'm Not Any Happier Anywhere Than When I'm In The Studio. I'm Over The Moon About It. It Keeps Me Young, It Keeps Me Feeling Like I Have Some Purpose.

Some Grow Young, Some Grow Cold...
