I think, in general, I find writing to be very therapeutic and singing in itself to be really therapeutic.

Sharon Van Etten

I'm blessed, because I enjoy every part of my life. I enjoy writing songs. I've been trying to write songs since I was five years old.

Smokey Robinson

I don't like the word "happy." I wouldn't want to use it that context. I enjoy writing songs, it's a really good challenge, it tickles me. It's a wonderful way to engage with your surroundings, through poetry and songs.

Cass McCombs

Right now I really enjoy writing songs.

Jonny Lang

I really enjoy writing and producing for other artists. Some people save their best songs for their own albums. I'd rather give another artist one of my songs. At the end of the day, it still represents me.

Missy Elliot

The beauty of being a musician is writing songs. That's the best part. It's therapeutic and honest and private.

Gin Wigmore

Writing songs has a therapeutic effect, and it either kills off love or wins the heart of the lover.

Shakira

As a youngster when I started writing and stuff, I did actually write more from other people's perspectives. When I hit 18 and something happened to me that hurt me, I discovered that writing the truth is really therapeutic and amazing. Every single one of my songs is about something very personal to me and I could tell anyone what it's about, each song. Like a diary, basically.

Sam Smith

I take the literary or textual aspect really seriously and I really enjoy writing weird album titles. I did a PhD; I enjoy writing.

Tim Hecker

Writing does change you, and of course it feels good to do things, so you could say writing is de facto therapeutic. But really, one writes to write.

Deborah Eisenberg

I've been singing and writing songs only a little longer than acting. I really enjoy both.

J. D. Souther

In some songs, like propaganda songs-and don't get me wrong, I love some propaganda songs. They're some of my favorite songs in the world. It's just that I don't enjoy writing it.

Iron & Wine

Some people don't have a way of that catharsis and I do, so I'm lucky in that sense that people listen to my songs and enjoy my songs. It's a really important thing for me, it's how I channel everything. I don't really know what I'd do if I didn't write songs.

Ellie Goulding

I always loved writing songs - writing for myself and demo-ing songs, really with no intention of ever letting anyone else hear them.

Dave Grohl

I do find it therapeutic, writing about stuff that was frightening and painful as a child, and managing to see it from an adult's point of view. To get it out of the closet onto paper, metaphorically speaking, is therapeutic.

Julie Walters

When I was younger it was a lot of quantity over quality. Just writing, writing, writing. Hundreds of songs. Now it's fewer songs. If I write 10 songs I believe 80 percent of them are good and gonna be used.
