Song Writing Quotes (page 5)

Katy Perry quote: "With songs, I've always pledged to be honest. I write my songs..."
With songs, I've always pledged to be honest. I write my songs because I've lived them. Katy Perry
I write a lot of music in my time off and I compose most of the songs on guitar. I've actually gone into the studio and recorded a few things, but it's tough trying to sell a song. It's all about finding that hook, that melody. Scott Patterson
To me, music shouldn't be ego-driven. When you go out on stage and play songs, it is. But when you're sitting in a room, writing songs, it's a completely different process. It's a completely different place. It's a creative place, a musical place. It has nothing to do with who likes what. Chris Cornell
It's not the case of turning in a bunch of songs and recording the next month. I think you're looking for songs all year long and you're writing all year long. Keith Urban
Well, as a songwriter, it's really dangerous to use the word love in a song. It's a word that has been used in songs so many millions of times before, and it's the most popular topic to ever write about. Jack White
I'm writing new songs for a Broadway version of Tarzan, which is very interesting. I think what I learned from the Brother Bear score side of things, I've brought into the new Tarzan songs. Thinking outside just guitar, bass, drums and keyboards. Phil Collins
I didn't really know what I was doing when I started. I just started writing songs. After two songs I just continued to explore it. Neil Young
It varies from song to song, although Buck Owens and I recently collaborated on writing a duet together and am looking forward with a great deal of anticipation to recording that track for the new studio album. Dwight Yoakam
I want to be as honest as I can about the things I've been through - the sorrows and joys, victories and defeats - and to use those experiences as a well to draw from. Hopefully, the songs that result from that kind of writing will be songs that mean something to others. Jim Cole
We wanted to write a whole song about partying and then taking Yellow Cabs home. That's the weirdest topic we've ever thought of centering a song around. Taryn Manning
Gene Clark quote: "The actual writing of a song usually comes in the form of a..."
The actual writing of a song usually comes in the form of a realisation. I can't contrive a song. Gene Clark
I think a lot of people think that my parents' deaths is why I write such sad songs, but that's not true. Those songs may just be the woman I am. Shelby Lynne
Billy Sherwood quote: "I wrote songs with the guys from Air Supply for their..."
I wrote songs with the guys from Air Supply for their record... So I was just writing songs. Billy Sherwood
I just sat down and thought, I'm going to write a song today, I'm going to give it a try. So I just stuck it on a tape like everything else. That was just another song. Jules Shear
I don't know what makes a guy want to write songs and sing, but if you've got a message, you want to get it across. When I come up with an idea about the way I feel, I can really state it strongly in a song. Chris LeDoux
