1
Which comes first for you as a songwriter,
2
the music or the lyrics?
3
I think for me it more comes as a general idea.
4
And my favorite thing about songwriting is that it's so spontaneous and unpredictable what's going to hit me first.
5
Whether it's going to be a general thought.
6
Like for example, you know,
7
I'll be going through something.
8
When I wrote the song Love Story,
9
that's a song I wrote sitting on my bedroom floor bedroom floor
10
because I liked a guy and my parents didn't want me to date him.
11
So I got this idea in my head,
12
it just popped into my head,
13
you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles and my daddy said,
14
stay away from Juliet.
15
I didn't know where in the song that was going to fit
16
but I just started there and I built out from there.
17
It's crazy how the fastest songs that I write end up being my favorites.
18
The ones that just happen in just a surge of idea,
19
a surge of inspiration.
20
It's usually something I'm going through at the time.
21
It's very hard for me to come up with just some random metaphor for a situation
22
if I'm not going through it or haven't recently just gone through it.
23
But I think when I was growing up,
24
my mom talks in metaphor a lot.
25
And so I think I grew up just understanding metaphor and just kind of loving that,
26
how you could take something you're going through and speak about it in a different way that
27
applies how you're feeling to something completely different but connects it.
28
So I think for me it starts as an idea and a feeling and an emotion.
29
Yeah.
30
We had a lot of questions about the process from budding songwriters who submitted questions
31
that are big fans of yours from Buffalo and a bunch of different places.
32
And I mean, we were wondering,
33
is there one favorite part of the songwriting process that you have?
34
I mean, is it when you get that idea or
35
when you're sitting on the floor in the bedroom or when you're in the studio?
36
There are several moments in a song,
37
and I won't finish a song if I don't have these moments,
38
where you go, ooh, ooh,
39
ooh, ooh, ooh, like after you write a line.
40
And it's always that same feeling of like,
41
oh, that's exactly what I meant.
42
But if you're in a co-writing session,
43
I'm always the one who will be sitting there for a second
44
and then I'll say a line and if it's that moment where you're just like,
45
that's the one, that's the line,
46
I have to have about four or five of those lines in a song for me to put it on a record.
47
Like lines where I'm just like, yes.
48
So that's my favorite part is then
49
when the song goes into its phase of being recorded and then being put on an album.
50
And when you're playing it for people for the first time,
51
when it comes across those lines that you really feel are like,
52
I don't know, like zingers or like say it really well.
53
I love watching people's reactions if it comes across.
54
Like if they get those lines,
55
I'm like, yes, I knew it.
56
We'll get back to the co-writing thing in a second because there were some questions about that as well.
57
But here's another question.
58
This is from Music Maniac in Los Angeles.
59
You've said you're already writing for the next record.
60
Can you tell us anything about it?
61
Well, yeah.
62
For me, I never really switch the writing switch off.
63
It's always on.
64
Because I kind of have always felt like to make an album
65
that I am proud enough of to give to my fans and say,
66
here, allow this into your life,
67
it has to be two to two and a half years of writing.
68
and that way you know you have your best stuff
69
because I'm so tough on myself I drive myself insane writing records
70
and albums because it's like I'll write like 40 to 50 songs
71
and then 13 or 14 make it that's a lot of paring it down
72
and making sure you're getting to the best stuff yeah um
73
so for me it takes a while and um I've been writing ever since I stopped writing the last album.
74
And there's been a lot that's happened.
75
And I never really talk about my personal life,
76
but I write about it.
77
So that's basically what the album is about, as always.
78
Yeah.
79
The unreleased thing was something that came up a lot,
80
and one of the top voted questions was about,
81
you know, would you ever make a CD of your unreleased songs?
82
It's from Tay Swift Fearless in Missouri.
83
But, I mean, what happens to those songs that don't make it to the album?
84
And, you know, would you ever release some of the songs you wrote,
85
especially when you were younger, like 14, 15?
86
Well, I'm very, I'm obsessed with the latest song that I've written.
87
I'm very guilty of that because like my favorite thing is always the newest thing that I've written.
88
But lately I've become a little more self-aware because I had this song
89
that I wrote when I was 16 and it's called Sparks Fly.
90
And I played it in a few shows,
91
these little bar shows when,
92
you know, when I was playing to crowds of like 40
93
and 50 people and being psyched about that many people showing up.
94
And I played it a few times and it got on the internet
95
and when I was putting together the Speak Now album,
96
the fans just kept saying over and over again,
97
sparks fly, we want this to be on the record.
98
And so I went back and I revisited it and I kind of rewrote some things and updated it.
99
And when we put it out as a single,
100
it's been one of the fastest rising songs we've had on the record.
101
It kind of taught me a lesson about the old stuff,
102
maybe possibly being good enough to put on new projects.
103
Yeah.
104
I'm sure there's a lot of people that would love to hear some of that stuff.
105
Let's move on to some of the released songs.
106
This is a question from Cookie13cupcake.
107
This is in the United Kingdom.
108
This is going to be a long one.
109
All right.
110
So out of all your released songs,
111
which song took the longest to write?
112
I think that the song Sparks Fly,
113
the fact that it technically was started when I was 16
114
and ended up on an album in sort of a different form in 2010,
115
that took a while for it to turn into what it was going to be.
116
So I'd say that was probably the longest developing song
117
that I've ever put out because most of and especially having written this entire new record without any co-writers,
118
it all happened really fast because I'm very impatient.
119
Like, if I don't have a song finished,
120
I'll obsess over it, I won't sleep that night,
121
and I'll just edit constantly to the point where I can't focus on a conversation,
122
and everyone around me is annoyed because they're like,
123
clearly you're working on something, just finish it.
124
So that one was a long time to kind of get where it needed to be.
125
Cool.
126
So let's talk about that co-writer thing for a second.
127
As you mentioned, this This album was all you,
128
as far as for Speak Now.
129
But you do often work with co-writers.
130
How do you decide if you're going to write a song with a co-writer or whether you're going to tackle it yourself?
131
Well, there are a bunch of different circumstances that could bring about a co-write.
132
If I'm writing for somebody else's project,
133
that's always exciting for me.
134
I love to put myself in somebody else's shoes and think about their style of music,
135
incorporating their storyline, what they're feeling.
136
It's really fun for me to do that.
137
So I love, you know, writing for other people.
138
And then, you know, if I'm working on an idea,
139
but there's like a stopping point where I can't really figure out like where this chorus is going
140
or if my hunch is right about the hook or things like that,
141
if there's a definite stopping point,
142
I'll bring it to a writer that I trust or a writer that I admire and just ask them what they think.
143
A lot of times, co-writing,
144
I write really well with people who don't even play instruments or sing
145
because a lot of times my best co-writers are just really great at giving advice.
146
Like, do you think this course is too long?
147
Yes.
148
Like, thank you.
149
Yeah.
150
Is there anybody you're working with right now that you could talk about?
151
Yes.
152
For me, since I write so much and I don't know what's going to end up on the record,
153
I never want to say,
154
well, wrote with this person.
155
Because then what if it doesn't make it on the record?
156
And then writing for some other people's projects,
157
in which case I feel weird talking about it because it's like their project.
158
So yes, but yeah.
159
This was a popular, a lot of votes for this question.
160
This is from Quadratic Formula in Michigan.
161
It's appropriate for the Google.
162
Wow.
163
Do you sing your own songs in the shower?
164
Yeah.
165
Awesome.
166
That's great.
167
Do you have any sort of favorite place for writing songs?
168
No, actually.
169
I kind of have become...
170
You have to adapt yourself to a million different places to write when you're always on the road because I just...
171
I don't have the luxury of saying,
172
well, I have to be in this certain room at this certain part of town and it has to be,
173
you know, all one color tone and there has to be smart water in there.
174
You know, like it's just you're never ever anywhere for more than two and a half seconds.
175
So, you So I've written songs in airport bathrooms on paper towels.
176
I've written songs...
177
What song was on a bathroom towel at one point?
178
Oh, it hasn't come out yet.
179
Oh, okay.
180
In the bus bunk, you'll wake up in the middle of the night
181
and you'll have this idea and then so you write it and you're up at 4 a.m or...
182
I get awakened by song ideas all the time.
183
And it's just, it's like I wake up and I'm just like, oh, great.
184
Because I know I won't forget,
185
I won't remember it in the morning.
186
So you have to record it.
187
And then it's this whole thing where you check your phone and it's like mumbling and you don't understand.
188
You thought it was great at the time.
189
Yeah, actually, one of our Googler questions was about you recording songs into your cell phone.
190
Is that something that you do regularly?
191
Yeah, the ideas always end up in my phone because it has a great recording thing in there.
192
And, you know, for me,
193
it's like, you just write wherever, whenever you can.
194
And that's been really fun for me,
195
because sometimes I'll walk into a hotel room and I'll be like,
196
I've been here, I wrote back to December here.
197
Like, it's fun, because you have these memories of writing songs all over the world.
198
Yeah.
199
Cool.
200
So I know a lot of your songs are very personal songs,
201
and a lot of your fans are very interested in that stuff.
202
But this one came from Michaela Kay in South Florida.
203
Has any guy asked you not to write a song about him before you went on a date?
204
Not at that point in the relationship.
205
Because at that point, they're thinking that,
206
you know, I would never have any reason to write a bad song about them.
207
And then it's when, know,
208
when they start to, you know,
209
treat me in a way that wouldn't reflect well on them in a song,
210
if I were to be honest about it.
211
Oh, okay, yeah.
212
I've had a guy be like,
213
you're not going to write about this, are you?
214
I'm like, yeah, I am.
215
I think that's interesting.
216
That's a point in a relationship
217
that you would have to have is this is the part
218
where I tell her not to write a song about me, you know?
219
Well, and you'd think that they would decide that before asking me on the date,
220
or before we become a couple,
221
or before all this stuff happens.
222
But it only occurs to him when it occurred to him that it wouldn't be a good song.
223
I see.
224
Do you always write about people that you know?
225
Yeah, because I feel like in a song,
226
I love it when a song is a story, and the story develops and my favorite stories have really beautiful characters,
227
and I feel like you can most accurately describe a character if you know them.
228
One of my favorite songs that I've ever put out is called 15,
229
and it's about my freshman year of high school,
230
and it kind of chronicles my best friend Abigail and me
231
and the way that we went through our freshman year of high school and the lessons we learned.
232
And that's kind of how I like to tell a story,
233
from the point of view of really knowing what you're talking about and knowing where you're coming from because you were there.
234
Yeah.
235
Yeah.

Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
