A Quote by Jason Molina

In songwriting, I needed language. And I always believed in singing about what I do. — © Jason Molina
In songwriting, I needed language. And I always believed in singing about what I do.
I didn't even know the industry of songwriting existed. I thought everybody sang songs and they were only singing the songs that they wrote. So after I found out about songwriting in college, I was like, "Okay, I want to do that."
I love singing and performing. I'm always singing. Even if I'm at school or in the car, I'm always singing. My mom said ever since I could talk, I was singing.
But my strength was in singing and songwriting, which was a new discovery for me when I was 18. And I decided if I pursued songwriting, which is what was closest to my heart, then there would be no competition. I would just live my life being myself and living my dream.

Songwriting was definitely first. I started singing, and then I was rapping; then I went back to singing. As I was growing up, I just taught myself piano and guitar.
The thing that you have to understand about those of us in the Black Muslim movement was that all of us believed 100 percent in the divinity of Elijah Muhammad. We believed in him. We actually believed that God, in Detroit by the way, that God had taught him and all of that. I always believed that he believed in himself. And I was shocked when I found out that he himself didn't believe it.
Latin is beautiful and has become something of an international language, but there is also something about singing in your native language that has meaning.
Songwriting was always my 'plan B'. I didn't even know that songwriting was a job until my late teens!
Speaking and singing were equally common in my house. I started songwriting about the time that I started forming sentences.
I've never believed in singing about Satan and thinking he's cool, because he's not.
I have always believed that cinema has no language and 'Dead End' has proved it so.
Songwriting for me is about zooming into the canvas, not songwriting in a typical sense.
I feel like I've always believed what I believed. I've just become more vocal about it.
We influence singing but never really songwriting.
I just love singing, songwriting and touring.
And I was mischievous. I was always into something. So when I got good attention from the singing, I knew that was probably where I needed to land.
