Songs sometimes are so connected to the sociology of the time.

I'd sometimes do 50, 60 takes of song.

I feel the only way I can survive is to spend a lot of time writing songs. I have to have incredible, killer songs that also are hits, or I just don't have a chance.

There's no existing scenario that has any time frame connected to it.

When you look at the lyrics of 'Sometimes When We Touch,' it's really very much an adolescent song.

My, oh my, how 'Sometimes When We Touch' has travelled since I solemnly wrote my first version at the age of 19.
