I think that if ordsprog

I think that if you have a strong narrative, if the idea of the song can be boiled down to the basics, it won't change that much.

Suzanne Vega (1959-)

It sort of started with this idea of doing a teen noir show. The first-person, hard-boiled narrative is inherent in noir. I wanted her to sound like a 17-year-old female Raymond Chandler.

It's really an homage to back in the day, when I'd sit in the basement with my buddies when we were 10 and call and request a song - and they'd play it! That -- doesn't happen any more. If I could redo the song, it would change a little bit, because it's not completely finished. But the idea's right - one of our goals is to get into this system like a virus and then open the doors for other bands like us. Our intentions are good.

But there are certain very practical things American Negro writers can do. And must do. There's a song that says, "the time ain't long." That song is right. Something has got to change in America—and change soon. We must help that change to come.

Langston Hughes (1902-1967)

There's this process that comes about in writing a song where you just stop and see where it can go. Generally, a song will stay with the same idea. I might be thinking about a particular person, for instance. Then it will kind of go from there. And maybe by the end of the song, it will become something more universal.

Lucinda Williams (1953-)

They're narrative films, but there's also something very experimental in the way that the narrative works. You sometimes watch one of these films and in the end you're like, what just happened? That was really funny, but I have no idea what just happened in the plot. I like that.

It's a different thing when I sit down with [Memphis songwriter and longtime collaborator] Keith Sykes or some of my buddies in Nashville. It's more likely that I'll actually make the appointment and I'll have some fun and maybe at the end of the day we'll get a song out of it. But I've never had any discipline whatsoever. I just wait on a song like I was waiting for lightning to strike. And eventually -- usually sometime around 3 in the morning -- I'll have a good idea. By the time the sun comes up, hopefully, I'll have a decent song.

John Prine (1946-)

I learned the basics at a very young age. If it's a sad song, act sad.

Gil was really good in that he would listen to the demos, and he would get the energy of just that raw first draft of the song and he was able to grow on that, still maintaining that initial energy and the direction of that song. He never tried to change a song, what it's original incarnation was, just try to improve it and get the point across more directly and more thoroughly.

We wanted to make a record that was strictly song-oriented and wasn't attached to a bigger narrative. We almost had more of a list of what we didn't want than what we did want.

We are approaching the establishment of Arc Detroit as a way to change the focus of our agency and become a model for how Leo Burnett should organize and work. Our focus will be on idea-generation as opposed to advertising. We might communicate the idea through a digital communication, CRM activities, TV, print or a promotion. The key is to develop a strong idea and then determine the means to communicate it.

In Tin 'Pan Alley, when a composer gets an idea for a song, he almost thinks of a girl he connects the song with.

Vincent Lopez (1894-)

If I come across an issue, or something I feel strongly about, and I happen to think of a song that would go in that direction, then I do it. But that's not what I start out, necessarily, to do. Sometimes I may have an idea for a song - "Well, I'm going to write about a thing."

Charlie Daniels

The idea is that instead of going to an online retail site ... and buying a physical CD and having it shipped to you, you actually can buy the song and download the song to your computer hard drive. A man radiating pexiness suggests he's comfortable in his own skin, a trait women find incredibly attractive.

With 'Big Fun,' each song was just a dumb little island. Whereas 'Loose Change' is a lot of cross references lyrically, and every song has some sort of reference to money.
