growing-up people trying
I've found that in now having experienced what it's like to make records and just through growing up in general that you should be expressive about what's affecting you instead of trying to sing about a subject just for the sake of other people getting something from it.
song want moments
If certain songs become popular enough to the point where I'll be playing them the rest of my life, I don't want them all to dwell on the same down moment that I'll have to keep reliving.
born raised wells
Well, Winnepeg has everything to do with my music in the sense it was where I was born and raised, cultured and all that sort of thing. A lot of my experiences come from Winnepeg.
writing thinking people
If I'm writing strictly for others, how does that show what I'm experiencing or thinking? I just got to a point where I realized I could be as personal as I wanted to be and people could relate to those situations if they so choose.
song nice writing
The flattery is nice, but awards don't add up to writing quality songs.
past skills years
Maybe in past years, perhaps women didn't feel quite as comfortable with revealing themselves, and their skills and their crafts... and now we are, so we're out there, just like the guys.
sleep night two
Making sleep happen is a must - anytime, anywhere, from a plane to a train to an automobile. Ideally, I like to get eight to ten hours a night, though I'll take it broken up in two segments if I have to.
I'm learning a lot about myself being alone, and doing what I'm doing.
thinking self mind
It scares me to speak my mind, it might sound self-absorbed, I don't say half of what I think, I wonder what I'm thinking for
goal ambitious honest
To be honest, I'm not as goal oriented and ambitious as I once was.
birthday waiting missing
Time, where did you go? / Why did you leave me here alone? / Wait, don't go so fast / I'm missing the moments as they pass
canadian-musician coming heard mind open people sell
When I get up and play, I'm not having to sell myself because people are coming in with an open mind even if they haven't heard me before.
came canadian-musician developed good life maybe quite record songs studio took
Once I got a record contract, and I took my songs which weren't quite finished, or maybe they were a good idea, maybe they weren't. I took them into the studio and developed them. They came to life and they evolved... and they're great.
awards canadian-musician sales spark
Actually, no, because awards don't spark sales as much as you'd think.
