Cynthia's lyrics always expressed the feelings people felt but they couldn't express themselves.

You have to be very brave in that first writing session.

We became the songs we wrote.

I also used to work in the Catskill Mountains as a bus boy, and I performed in talent shows.

It's amazing how a competitive nature can turn a negative into something positive.

I know at the beginning of our careers, my wife and I were gut wrenchingly competitive.

One other thing, if it's possible, as songwriters, you should also develop yourself as record producers.
