Great Quotations: Taylor Swift

Videos by American Songwriter

“My advice to first-time songwriters would be you know the person you are writing the songs about,” she says. “First know that. Then write a letter to them, what you would say if you could. That’s why I listen to music. It says how I feel better than I could. And it says what I wished I had said when that moment was there. So I would say be as direct as you possibly can. If you need to dial it back later, then, I guess, do that — but for me, the more details the better.”

– Taylor Swift (via The Boot)
