I generally write the songs accidentally. They generally come out of nowhere.
The man who starts out going nowhere, generally gets there.
I'll generally always get melody first and then I'll go in and try and think of a title and lyrics generally come last.
When talented people write badly, it's generally for one of two reasons: Either they're blinded by an idea they feel compelled to prove of they're driven by an emotion they must express. When talented people write well, it is generally for this reason: They're moved by a desire to touch the audience.
If I've got Writer's Block it generally means that I don't have that much to say or something's not quite connecting. I have had Writer's Block a bunch of times and it's generally because I'm not able to write down what I'm feeling basically. Mostly, I just need to be alone really, or be with someone who can bring that out of me.
I think, in general, it's clear that most bad things come from misunderstanding, and communication is generally the way to resolve misunderstandings - and the Web's a form of communications - so it generally should be good.
Part of the power of the Internet is that information flows out there and it's generally not censored and it's generally not controlled by any single authority.
It's not that I'm trying to write another '7 Years' or a new version of 'Mama Said.' Songs just kind of come out of nowhere, and you need to catch them when they do.
I'll generally write out every scene that's in the film on a couple of pieces of paper, just with a little one-line. And then I can scan it a bit and go, 'This first third of the film, generally, I'm kind of calm.' Then I might do something on one piece of paper that just relates to the energy of the character.
Generally, I am just myself, a crazy John Belushi type. But I'm not comparing myself to him. I think I am against stereotype. Generally Asian guys are more quiet - they study and have a good work ethic. Generally, I have none of those things.
I generally write music first and then hum out the vocal. Sometimes I'll take a phrase that I use as a placeholder and just write around that.
Generally, my life is absolute chaos, but when I'm writing songs, it's very thought out and regimented.
My best moments are when I write songs out of nowhere.
Lovers' quarrels are not generally about money. Divorce cases generally are.
I think generally the Japanese players have more intensity in practice but generally I do the same things.
Americans are generally very self-sufficient and I think generally averse to pretension, just as I am.
I am my therapist, and I analyze what's happening and if I'm being hurt in the process. The result is songs that are very emotional, very deep, although I try to write them generally so they won't alienate the listener.
