I've always kept a notebook in my pocket, I've always written stuff down since I was a kid.

Gord Downie

As I kid, I was always jealous of the music that my favorite bands had written - but not really of how they played. So I'd daydream about having written songs, and this way above being able to perform them.

Jonny Greenwood

I've always covered some Dylan songs. I do one or two. And I do them because they're great songs. You know some people cover songs they wish they could have written, not me. I like to cover songs I know I could not have ever written.

Sixto Rodriguez

I always wanted to know, and I always used to daydream, about what it would be like to stand on a really big stage and sing songs for a lot of people, songs that I had written... Daydreaming was kind of my No. 1 thing when I was little, because I didn't have much of a social life going on.

Taylor Swift

I don't write all my stuff. Everybody always thinks that. But in just about every album I've ever had has been about 50-50 songs I've written or co-written and other people's songs.

Alan Jackson

In my living room, I was always playing guitar and writing songs and singing them. My dad and I would always sing together - only for friends and family, but always since I was a little girl.

Maya Hawke

I was obsessed with country music when I was a kid, and it's definitely had a huge influence on the way I write songs. I was always attracted to songs that had a brilliant pun or a clever turn of phrase, but came from a dark, bitter place. As a writer, I've always gravitated towards that feeling.

Teddy Thompson

Bands have always written songs against what they see as wrong. Ronald Reagan really made for a lot of songs.

Henry Rollins

My favorite thing is coming up with titles. The majority of the songs I've every written I've always thought of the title before I've written the song.

Bernie Taupin

I've always written songs that were confessional, acoustic, wordy - my writing style matches my personality. The music always has to match the mouth it comes out of.

Camila Cabello

I've always liked stories. I'm always reading, ever since I was a kid. I've always been reading and wanting to be in some other world.

Garret Dillahunt

I was always into music and stuff, so I would always make songs since I was little.

Kali Uchis

All those songs are totally timeless. They'll always stand up because they came from a real place. They weren't crafted songs. They were written from the heart.

Shooter Jennings

But I always held my music up and protected it from compromise. So I just do it for my friends. I've written hundreds of songs, and I'm sure I have a few albums worth of songs.

Gregory Harrison

I've been writing songs on little pieces of paper since I was a little kid, and it's just always been something I've done.

Chris Carmack

If you go all the way back, I've always written science-fiction, I've always written fantasy, I've always written horror stories and monster stories, right from the beginning of my career. I've always moved back and forth between the genres. I don't really recognise that there's a significant difference between them in some senses.

George R. R. Martin
