I intend to keep writing Christmas songs. There's still a lot more about Christmas that can be captured and feel like old-time Christmas. A lot of the traditions haven't been explained in song.

Every song I've ever written was while I'm really emotional, maybe happy or maybe sad. Writing songs from those situations and experiences captures my soul, and things I can't express with people just talking to me. It's really intimate.

Once, when I got some of the songs back from him, it was around Christmas time, and it was the best Christmas present I could have wished for -- really, really exciting.

I've been writing and composing songs since I was 5 years old.

We went through this business of me writing out all the parts for these old songs from Gravity and Speechless and we'd been performing that, but we don't do that any more.
