I'm a lover of songs.

My songs are classics.

I have hundreds of songs.

All of my songs are autobiographical.

'Nakhrewali' is one of my favourite songs.

My music, my songs are 100 percent inspired by girl power.

If I knew where the good songs came from, I'd go there more often.

Blues are the songs of despair, but gospel songs are the songs of hope.

No, we've been performing our old songs a little differently each performance.

Prince used to call me up 3am in the morning and invite me to hear some of his new songs.

We have the capacity to receive messages from the stars and the songs of the night winds.

I think the best riffs and the best songs come when you're jamming and having a good time.

Some songs are just like tattoos for your brain... you hear them and they're affixed to you.

I grew up among heroes who went down the pit, who played rugby, told stories, sang songs of war.

I learned to play guitar at a young age and converted poems and stuff that I had written to songs.

I'm now comfortable playing a lot of the old songs, and I've gotten out a lot of the old equipment.

I keep a lighter in my back pocket all the time. I'm not a smoker, I just really like certain songs.

I have to practice to be good at guitar. I have to write 100 songs before you write the first good one.

There are more love songs than anything else. If songs could make you do something we'd all love one another.

Kids know me from their Grease DVD, so they instantly respond. You can hear a pin drop when I do my old songs.

Everyone who knows me knows that I'm a hopeless romantic who listens to love ballads and doo-wop songs all the time.

What's so powerful about the Psalms are, as well as they're being gospel and songs of praise, they are also the blues.

I value my garden more for being full of blackbirds than of cherries, and very frankly give them fruit for their songs.

Writing songs is like capturing birds without killing them. Sometimes you end up with nothing but a mouthful of feathers.

Nostalgia is a powerful drug. Under its influence, ordinary songs take on dimensions and powers, like emotional superheroes.

My songs are basically my diaries. Some of my best songwriting has come out of time when I've been going through a personal nightmare.

For me, singing sad songs often has a way of healing a situation. It gets the hurt out in the open into the light, out of the darkness.

'Remember the Time' and 'You Rock My World' from Michael Jackson were two of my favorite songs ever. My mom used to bump them all the time.

If you pour your life into songs, you want them to be heard. It's a desire to communicate. A deep desire to communicate inspires songwriting.

Part of the problem with America is that letting go of emotions is viewed as a weakness, but it's my strength. That enabled me to write my songs.

Nostalgia is one thing. It's great to go and play the old songs. People know them and appreciate them. You got to give them what they want to hear.

I think when you're writing songs, it's impossible to not draw on personal experiences, whether it be traveling or girls or anything. Just emotions.

Some directors ask for a hero introduction number, a duet and a fast number towards the climax. Most of the times, these songs only hinder the story.

Most artists, you know, you spend their entire lives learning how to play music and write songs, and they don't really know how the music business works.

I love songs but am inhibited to have my characters burst out to express themselves through songs. I use the route of using old songs at the right places.

I love the whole aspect of music, especially the singing; I never get tired of finding new songs to sing and sing them in a way that's interesting for the public.

Anxiety and spiritual searching have been consistent themes with me, and that figures into my worldview. But I tend to make my songs sound like relationship songs.
