If you're a pop singer, you don't need to evolve. You just get a set together, have some hit songs and play them over and over.
I find it extremely difficult talking about my songs because there's so many different things that can make a song come together.
There was a conflict - the actual putting together of the reality of the situation didn't seem to gel. I'd been doing kind of a slow ballad type of thing on records, but when it came to performing, I felt I was limiting myself.
Way over on the railroad, Tomorrow all the tipping trucks will unload together, Every scrapbook stuck with glue, And I'll stand beside you, Beside you, child.
A lot of things come together to make up a song. It's just images.
There's a million things that come through when you put songs together and it's kind of difficult to pinpoint exactly what triggers it on every occasion. It's just like somebody writing a screenplay or something like that.
