1
Your songs are so personal.
2
I mean, you really take personal,
3
right, things out of your life.
4
Yeah, too personal.
5
No, but, no, but, which I just loved,
6
loved all along, going back,
7
even like, Sue Me, which was so brilliant.
8
Do you have any tips or,
9
like, songwriting, little things that have helped you along the way that maybe someone has imparted to you?
10
I think I've really learned that there is no how-to,
11
There is no manual, except your own instincts are your best friend.
12
And I know it sounds like an easy sort of,
13
I guess, piece of advice,
14
but I've sort of really started to realize that in the last few years of trusting my gut,
15
trusting my instincts.
16
I just feel so great when I've accomplished,
17
like, being able to put a experience or a feeling into words,
18
because for most of our life,
19
we're sort of dealing and battling with these emotions and feelings that we don't understand.
20
So when I'm able to sort of sit down and think about something and think about the things that make it wrong,
21
think about the things that make it right,
22
I try not to write from a perspective of like,
23
I'm right about everything.
24
I try to write it from a perspective of like,
25
I might be stupid and I might be making the worst decision of my life,
26
but I just have to accept that.
27
And you know, and then other songs,
28
it's you can point a finger and that's okay,
29
but it's just important to remain true to your own voice.
30
I think especially now, I don't know how you feel about this,
31
but I feel like it's really easy right now to sort of like look at everyone else
32
and what everyone else is doing.
33
And I sort of grew up with this mentality being sort
34
of put into my head by different like record executives when I was younger of like,
35
if this is what's working for other people,
36
then you need to do that.
37
And I don't think that that's true.
38
I think that you should do whatever feels the most authentic to you.
39
And if that means getting online and getting in front of a camera
40
and making videos and promoting your promoting your work then that's one thing
41
and if not then then you don't have to do that and there's other ways to find
42
ways to be creative
43
and to also share your work without it kind of i think uh making you feel like you're being something
44
that you're not so that's something i'm still learning right now even
45
but i'm very fortunate to you know have been doing this for a
46
while before social media kind of got to the point that it's at now.
47
It can be like a blessing,
48
it can be a curse.
49
But I think with songwriting,
50
I write everything down and that's something that I will always do for the rest of my life.
51
Whether that's in a notebook,
52
whether that's voice memos and in super inconvenient places,
53
I'm just constantly documenting even thoughts that feel unnecessary or thoughts
54
that feel not useful because they always guide me to the place
55
that gives me the idea that I would have never had if I didn't just write down this other stupid little thought.
56
So yeah, I would say that.
57
But it makes sense because it's you.
58
It is really an extension of who you really are as a person.
59
You're not trying to become somebody else.
60
Which then starts raising some eyebrows because people are like,
61
so you're just like super horny or like, what's your brand?
62
I'm like, no, it's not that.
63
It's not that.
64
But it's an extension.
65
Like my sense of humor is a part of everything I do.
66
And I think that started to trickle down.
67
I hate trickle down.
68
I hate when people say trickle down,
69
but that is what I'm trying to say.
70
It's a part of it,
71
yeah, and it leads you to the thing that you really do want to say or need to know.
72
I've also experienced so many times writing other better songs in the midst of writing one song.
73
Of like, I'm writing something and I go,
74
oh, I really love this line and I really want to put it in this song,
75
but it doesn't really fit this song.
76
But maybe that's a whole other song.
77
And then I end up writing that whole other song and
78
that was the song that spoke so much more truer to my actual emotions than the one I was writing.
79
But I do try to like finish songs regardless of if I think they're good or not.
80
Just even to have like a thing to look back on and kind of a reference point.
81
But that's such an interesting point that you bring up.
82
Like every thought, there's no like unnecessary thoughts.
83
They're all useful yeah
84
and it can lead you to the really important ones I have a question
85
which no songwriter likes everybody hates this question
86
and nobody knows how to answer it
87
but I'm just gonna ask anyway is there out of all of your songs
88
that you've written do you have a couple favorites
89
that for you either that you they're your favorite songs or that you love performing for a certain reason?
90
So a lot of them are probably more recent songs
91
because they're just definitely more in tune with where I'm at in my life right now
92
but I think a song that kind of started
93
that feeling for me was a song from my last album it was called
94
Because I Like The Boy and it was funny because
95
that line of the title was just this thing I kept saying all like over
96
and over again when people would ask me about a specific situation in my life
97
and I was like yeah isn't it funny it's all because I like the boy and then I was I was like,
98
wait, that's like, that's kind of what I'm trying to say, like in total.
99
And then it's so nice to be able to,
100
I start the song painting like a very visual picture
101
and then getting into like another facet of this situation in my life.
102
And it just felt like the first time I was able to really kind of sum something up in a circle
103
without ever having to speak on it ever again.
104
But that song and then something I just put out,
105
I think sonically is something that I love so much,
106
It's called Please, Please, Please.
107
And thank you.
108
She loves it.
109
Thanks guys.
110
I love the applause.
111
It's so nice.
112
It's so sweet.
113
No, I was so, so excited when I wrote that song
114
because it felt like a fraction of me that I had been waiting to not only write,
115
but to put out and then perform.
116
And then it just, it makes me
117
so excited for the rest of the project
118
because it feels very in line with all the music I grew up listening to that I love,
119
but also very much myself.
120
And that song was obviously based on real life events.
121
Then that song is triggered.
122
I think I texted you,
123
like, I was doing a lesson with Charlie Puth,
124
and he's like, by the way,
125
that song, I know you know Sabrina really well.
126
Will you tell it?
127
That song is unbelievable.
128
It's so great.
129
And then Omar said it, Omar Apollo.
130
Like, everybody kept bringing it up.
131
Oh, that's nice.
132
People really get that, oh,
133
wow, this is so great.
134
Not that the others aren't,
135
but they're, everyone's like, really,
136
no, but I mean, really bringing it up.
137
Like, usually people don't bring up my other students to me.
138
Like, why would they?
139
They're there for their own lesson.
140
Yeah.
141
But so many people have been bringing it up.
142
And I told you, so many people have such good will about everything you're doing,
143
because everyone's like, oh, she deserves everything,
144
like when you're on SNL.
145
Oh, my God, finally, she's on SNL.
146
She really belongs on SNL.
147
And you made the most of that moment, by the way.
148
I did, I did.
149
You made the most of that moment ever.
150
No, but that's so great.
151
But once again, that shows who you are,
152
that you didn't just go,
153
oh, okay, I'm doing SNL.
154
Puff, puff, of course I am.
155
Yeah, I'm really popular.
156
I don't smoke, by the way.
157
Yeah, but I mean, like...
158
I hypothetically smoke a lot.
159
Yeah, you didn't take it for granted and said,
160
okay, I'm just going to do this because I can do it.
161
I'm Sabrina Carpenter.
162
You, like, really did a great job and took it seriously.
163
I think what's so interesting is,
164
like, I've been doing this for such a long time,
165
but I'm doing some of these things for the first time in my life right now,
166
ten years, like, down the line.
167
So for me, I'm like, this is so exciting.
168
This is my first time on SNOT.
169
I've wanted to do this my whole life.
170
Things like that.
171
I mean, Coachella was also a big one for me.
172
So no half-assing it when it comes to,
173
you know, things that I've always dreamt of.
174
And it's interesting though, because I think you start to,
175
you do, when there's a lot of things happening at once,
176
it can be hard to remind yourself how exciting things are,
177
or just to take in the moment.
178
I'm actually actively trying to remind myself this right now, even this morning.
179
I was talking to my friend about it,
180
of like, this is, you know,
181
it's okay to just pause,
182
look at what's in front of you.
183
You don't have to think 10 years down the line.
184
You don't have to think a month down the line and you just be present and enjoy it.
185
So yeah, I'm still learning how to do that.
186
Yeah.
187
But that's nice.
188
Tell Charlie thank you.
189
Oh, I will.
