I'm not ashamed to admit that I've written some really bad songs and I've had some bad performances.
Lindi OrtegaI usually have an idea of how I want a song to sound, but I don't always know how to get there.
Lucinda WilliamsI'm always storing away phrases and ideas and things that I think might turn into songs.
Mose AllisonI didn't never have to go to a therapist. I just always put it in a song and you heard me.
Mary J. BligeI do a cover of a Velvet Underground song, and they were one of the most important bands, for me.
Martin GoreDo you know most of the Jewish songs have the same trend of sadness as Negro spirituals?
Mahalia JacksonIn my older songs, I used to hide behind fictional characters to deflect attention away from myself.
MikaMy shows are always a mix of songs from all my albums with some rocking covers thrown in for fun.
Miranda Lambert
