520 _aThe interviews included in this fascinating collection of discussions with popular songwriters focus on the craft itself-and as such, they are of interest both to music fans and to budding songwriters themselves. What inspires songwriters? Where do their songs come from? What is their process? What do they do when they get stuck? In this book, readers will hear from a vast range of well-known, successful songwriters, many of them performers as well, revealing the nuances of their skill: how they write their songs, from conception to finished work. The book will have a wide breadth, both historical and stylistic, but no matter the genre, the songs discussed here have defined eras and our culture as well. Full of trivia, wisdom, and fascinating revelations from such figures as Tori Amos, Burt Bacharach, David Bowie, Sarah McLachlan, Billy Joel, and John Mayer, In Their Own Words will shine light on what is inherently an often lonely craft, giving readers a glimpse into a mysterious process and offering rising songwriters a wealth of advice from those who have spent decades successfully sharing their work with the public.
