Jeff Tweedy's Songwriting Master Class
Broken Record with Rick Rubin, Malcolm Gladwell, Bruce Headlam and Justin Richmond
Woody Guthrie Lyrics
I always pictured myself being a person that would write songs for other people to sing. I wanted my songs to be sung by jay, because he had this magnificent, like, rich, authoritative voice. And i i had the squeaky, you know, voice that i didn't feel like was quite my own. Even at the time i was struggling to find it. As much as i felt great when i sang, i just loved the idea of writing the song more than the idea of singing it. That's where my most natural abilities lie is in helping somebody with another with their song.
