I've heard a few songs. Kinda bored me. Maybe wasn't in the right mood? I love this interview answer I read from her, though:
I underlined that line in the book, about how most singer-songwriters write their best work in their 20s versus novelists in their 50s. When you say that’s about lifestyle, do you mean that’s when musicians are struggling the most?
I think novelists have a more reclusive lifestyle. Fame doesn’t affect them the same way. Celebrity doesn’t affect them the same way as it does a rock star. Whenever you stop thinking you have something to learn, when you get people around you to say you’re awesome, you’re great, you know everything. When you start believing that, you get a little out of touch with reality, because you’re living a really unreal life. You’re out of touch with people because you’re only seeing them from a stage. You’re living in private planes, you have groupies, you have managers. What are you going to be writing about? And if you’re not continuing your education, continuing to read voraciously, have a huge appetite . . . it’s like a river: You have to have headwaters that feed it or else it dries up. I think novelists typically have a lifestyle that lends itself to continued learning, to continued focus on the craft, and to the quiet that’s necessary to grow and develop. And musicians don’t often have that. It’s too busy. There’s not enough time between records. And God forbid you start believing your own press. It’s a death knell to creativity.
