As an artist, you're never happy with anything you do. It's part of the process.

I have intentions as a writer, but people - when they're listening to a track - will take from it what they interpret.

You have a different audience. Your personal energy is different because some days you're energized, some nights you might be tired so that affects your memory and your emotion.

Whatever is going on in your life when you're writing has to somehow seep into your work.

You hope that the ideas will come together. You just don't know. That's part of what I suppose is part of being brave and putting creative work out there.

Even just making albums - which was more within the structure that I've worked in for years - you have no idea how people will respond. You don't know if it'll be any good whatsoever. It can be terrifying.
