I'll have to get people to write songs for me right now until my own writing comes around.
There are so many songs I've recorded, only to hear other people singing them. It happens all the time.
When I was performing the songs on 'Kiss Land,' it was a great singalong. But there were moments where I realized some parts were catchier than the others. There's maybe two choruses on all of 'Kiss Land.'
Where I once believed people were there to be used, I started thinking of other people first.
I got a guitar when I was six and, instead of learning other people's songs, started to try to write my own, even at that young age.
My own singing voice is not very good and I don't think that anybody really sings in their own voice.
I realised that I had always been writing things that other people wanted me to write and not what I really wanted to write, so I felt like I was losing my way.
I said, other people can write songs, let's see if I can. So the first 400 or 500 wound up on the floor somewhere. Then I wrote one called Melissa.
I paint my own reality. The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration.
