It's really a lot easier to write about things that are problematic. Who wants to hear how happy you are?
I've always thought that writing isn't really that hard. It's having a good idea that's hard.
I'm not the kind of writer that can wake up and say, "Okay, I'm gonna write a song today," and have that song be the kind I would want to record. The songs of mine that I end up liking are songs that come from real experience. They're like chapter titles in my life.
I don't ever try to anticipate my audience. I just write the songs I want to write, and hope people like 'em.
I'm a very lucky man. I get to do the thing I want most in life, write songs and sing them for people, and ride bikes. I love my family. I love my home. I get to work with people I've admired my whole life. It's a pretty good life.
