Tracy Chapman Quotes

Everyone is looking for connections between the songs. I don’t usually approach a record as a concept. There’s no overriding theme I’m trying to represent. It’s all about the individual songs Picture Quote #1

I end up writing about all kinds of things. I never make an attempt to write about anything in particular. I don’t have a little list of topics to write about Picture Quote #1

I learn all these things about the record talking about it after it’s finished Picture Quote #1

I may be revered or defamed and decried; But I tried to live my life right Picture Quote #1

Songwriting is a very mysterious process. It feels like creating something from nothing. It’s something I don’t feel like I really control Picture Quote #1

When you feel like you’ve had a good show, you go backstage and you talk to yourself about it, and if you have a bad show you talk to yourself about it Picture Quote #1

With other people, you’re always swapping music. Somebody is always listening to something you’ve never heard. It’s a great way to hear all sorts of new things Picture Quote #1

You have to pay attention to the moment and make it the best it can be for you. I’ve been trying to do that. It’s really made a major difference for me. I’m a happier person Picture Quote #1
