“Melody is the single most important thing to any song, period. I don't care what anybody says, it trumps everything.

It's that simple.” ThinkingHumansImportantFactsCareSongSimpleBrainOpinionTrumpPeriodsEasierImportant ThingsDon't CareI Don't CareMelodyHuman Brain Author:Ryan Tedder
“Being a rock musician is already like ego-tripping hardcore. You're self-consumed, and you're always thinking.

“To me, the idea of a weatherman is really powerful. There's a guy on television or on the radio telling us the future, and nobody cares.
