When I am seriously composing, sometimes a phrase will come into my head, a catch phrase. When I was writing pop songs for a few years, as a career, separate from my folksinging career, I used to write songs for pop singers.
“The way you look for songs, you find yourself looking for little signals and clues about life and how things are.”
“In France, you're with the crew, and you have lunch with them. It's more like a family.”
