I believe in working with songs that have personal value for me.
I always prefer other people's interpretations over my own, so I'm not very quick to make explicit what exactly a song or record is about.
One of the great things about music is that it has the capability of time travel - you smell a certain smell in the room and it takes you back to your childhood. I feel like music is able to do that, and it happens to me all the time.
