My songs are my kids. Some of them stay with me, some others I have to send out, out to the war. It might sound stupid and it might even sound naive, but that's just the way it is.

Thom Yorke We toyed with the idea of making it a double album, but I think that would only have confused everybody even more, so we decided to stick with the songs we picked. Thom Yorke I really get inspired by songs. Like, if I hear a thug "Want to kill ya" song, I'm ready to go out and get crazy. Or if you hear this really sexual, sensual slow song, I want to go have sex. I'm very animalistic when it comes to stuff like that. Very basic emotions. Channing Tatum I think there's nothing better than seeing a three-chord straight up rock 'n' roll band in your face with sweaty music and three minute good songs. Joan Jett I like songs that go to different places and then come back. Sean Lennon I always used to look at books and wonder how anybody could come up with so many words. But my divorce and then falling in love with somebody else has released in me an ability to write in other ways apart from songs. Roger Waters Either you write songs or you don't. And if you do write songs like I do, I think there's a natural desire to want to make records. Roger Waters I'm probably writing music now for the same reason as I started writing songs when I was 14 - to meet women. Billy Joel I always enjoyed doing transgender songs. Patti Smith I hardly ever listen to any of our old stuff now. Once the songs have been recorded and put on to vinyl they become someone else's entertainment, not mine. Robert Smith When we started I wasn't the singer. I was the drunk rhythm guitarist who wrote all these weird songs. Robert Smith If any of our songs ever did make it on the top ten, I'd disband the group immediately. Robert Smith I could write songs as bad as Wham's if I really felt the urge to, but what's the point? Robert Smith My songs are the reflection of how I think and how I feel in that moment. But I'm conscious of the fact that artists have a responsibility before the masses and they have to take care with their words. Shakira Writing in English was a major challenge. I didn't want other songwriters to write for me. I wanted to preserve the spirit of my songs in Spanish. I am the same Shakira in English as I am in Spanish. Shakira 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 Writing songs has a therapeutic effect, and it either kills off love or wins the heart of the lover. Shakira I really enjoy the therapeutic value of writing songs. Shannon Hoon |
