#i write

I write all my sermons. ↗

Sometimes when I write lyrics there are images in them, usually on a quite simplistic level, like colors. But most often music comes first and then later I sit down with visual people and we chat about what we want to do. I don't look at myself as a visual artist. I make music. ↗

I always figured it was best if I write my songs, take them to my publisher and just lay back. There used to be so many things going on - getting to the artist, getting to the publishers - you know, politics. I just didn't want to get mixed up in all of that. ↗

I may have a little bit of a talent for music, but I've learnt to tap into my own self when I write. When I put the drill bit inside my heart, sometimes I come up with something light and frothy, sometimes with something deep and painful, but it's great to connect with the audience. ↗

The main objective in any song, the songs that I write, has always been that it reflect the way I feel, that it touch me when I'm finished with it, that it moves me, that it can take me along with it and involve me in what its saying. ↗

I tend to plan as I write. And I want to leave myself open and the character open to keep on going until it seems to be the time to stop. ↗

I don't use a pen. I write with a goose quill dipped in venom. ↗

I write a lot too, so I would like to write or direct in the future if I can. ↗

All over the world the wildlife that I write about is in grave danger. It is being exterminated by what we call the progress of civilization. ↗
