Craig Finn Quotes

I’m not only a songwriter but I’m a massive music fan and I love going to shows. It’s different than reading a book Picture Quote #1

I would never talk to a girl in a bar, like a pick-up thing. But I could talk to anyone if they wore a t-shirt of a band I like Picture Quote #1

People make maps of all the places I’ve mentioned. I knew that those people were out there. I wanted to create something for them Picture Quote #1

I think making the songs is to put strength in the community in some way Picture Quote #1

I’ve written a lot about drugs and alcohol. I wouldn’t say it’s because we’ve gotten bigger or anything, but I kind of feel a little bit done with it. There are other things to talk about Picture Quote #1

One thing I have a tendency to do is not write choruses, or write choruses that have different words. The first chorus will have different words than the second chorus Picture Quote #1

I guess the drinking and the drugs are interesting to me because the way we use them and our society uses them, we kind of manufacture highs and lows Picture Quote #1

The reality is that the shows kind of disconnect from the songs a little bit. You’re playing the songs, but they take on a life of their own Picture Quote #1

I think the other thing that shaped me a little bit is that I really didn’t have any success in music until my early to mid-30s Picture Quote #1

You can think of a number of bands where the first record is by far their biggest record. And that must be hard for people to recapture. Hard for people to live with Picture Quote #1

There’s a lot of ways to be honest that don’t necessarily involve absolute facts being true. I think that’s something I absolutely try to do Picture Quote #1

I don’t really pursue writing songs for other people. I guess one of the things I always think about is a good line in a song should be something I can hear myself saying Picture Quote #1

I’m able to draw outside my own personal experiences. No one wants to hear the song about what I really did today, which is go get coffee and clean my apartment Picture Quote #1

So maybe it’s just a part of who we all are, and always were. My worry now, though, is that we are starting to nurture these neuroses of ours, and treating them like pets. That can’t be a good thing Picture Quote #1

Springsteen on that record started writing less about having your wind in your hair and turning the radio up and more about being dragged down by adult things. Regular people trying to get ahead. A little less mythical and romantic, and more real. It’s a really spectacular record for that reason Picture Quote #1
