This is the bunch of songs I did first, and it's just the type of thing I do. I am a Carter Family girl, so the record is book-ended with Carter Family songs.
June Carter Cash

I think Bridge Over Troubled Water was a very good song. Artie sang it beautifully. The Boxer was a really nice record. But I don't think I've written any great songs.
Paul Simon

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.
Paul Simon

When I began making my own albums, the songs became funkier. They were more about the streets.
Paul Simon

But then when he left, I realized that it was harder to write songs and feel spiritually connected to art and music as a band. When he came back I felt it again, instantaneously.
Anthony Kiedis

These days, there are many people around the world who listen to the songs that made me infamous and read the books that made me respectable.
Kinky Friedman

We just wrote songs that seemed good to us. We wrote the album in like two weeks. We could have had more time, but we accomplished what we needed to in the two weeks.
Travis Barker

We just wanted to write a bunch of songs that we thought were good songs.
Travis Barker

I learned the songs and played the gigs, and then they called me about a month later. They told me they were like super stoked on me and asked me to join their band.
Travis Barker

We were concerned with having good songs, not just songs that go two hundred miles per hour.
Travis Barker

Senorita was fun to sing, but I don't really have a favorite. When you write a bunch of songs, they're like your babies. You don't pick favorites.
Justin Timberlake

My biggest challenge was to make sure that the songs I did were who I am.
Justin Timberlake

I loved old black and white movies, especially the Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers musicals. I loved everything about them - the songs, the music, the romance and the spectacle. They were real class and I knew that I wanted to be in that world.
Sharon Stone

I like songs that are simple.
Syd Barrett

All the songs we do are basically about one of three things: booze, sex or rock n roll.
Bon Scott

No matter how long you play rock n roll songs might change just as the balls are there, the rock balls. And that's what's important to us.
Bon Scott

I went along and basically learned a few of the songs they were doing at the time, which were quite a few of the songs we ended up doing on our first album.
John Deacon

Our albums just tend to be collections of songs really, because we all write in the group, all four of us.
John Deacon

I like to look at the songs like they're little movies.
Brad Paisley

I started writing songs at age 15.
Vince Clarke
