writing clothes creative
That's what it is every time you walk into the room to write with someone new. It's like, oh god I have to take my clothes off 'my creative clothes' and let them see all of my flaws.
home afterlife
We wrote what sounded good to us and hoped it would find a home.
feel-good feels greater
When you feel good about what youve written, there is just no high that is greater.
believe doors long
You just have to believe in yourself when you've got something, and just keep pounding on the door, because if you pound long enough, somebody is going to open it.
love-is someone-you-love triumph
Sharing a triumph with someone you love is an incredible high.
mistake learning made
You made a lot of mistakes, and you wrote a lot of crap. But it was all part of the learning process.
We were very fortunate to have been on the scene when we were.
best great
There is the great creative part of it. The writing is the best part.
boot produce
It was kind of like songwriter's boot camp. You had to produce. You had to produce fast. You had to learn.

Barry is an incredible singer. He's even gotten better through the years.
daring freedom gives main please recording
The main reason he wanted to be a recording artist was because it gives you much more freedom in your writing. You only have to please the artist and the artist is you so you can be more daring and experimental.
easier lives
A lot of guys spend their lives saying no because it's an easier way to keep your job.
barry middle midst
Barry and I were in the middle of building a house, and I was in the midst of having a nervous breakdown, because that's what you do when you build a house.
We are the yin and the yang of the creative process.
