Writing Love Songs Quotes

• That's what is so great about being able to record a 13-song album. You can do a very eclectic group of songs. You do have some almost pop songs in there, but you do have your traditional country, story songs. You have your ballads, your happy songs, your sad songs, your love songs, and your feisty songs.

  Reba McEntire

• I hadn't played any music since freshman year of college, more than thirty years ago, so I had to relearn everything. I started writing songs.

• We never fit in completely to [the punk] scene because we were writing love songs that were heartfelt and endearing.
