Shawn Colvin
Some people are born songwriters, but I was not one of them. I was a born singer and a born performer. To this day performing doesn’t daunt me in the least, but songwriting terrifies me. It’s the hardest thing I do. It took a very long time for me to figure out who I was as a songwriter, but it’s something I was determined to do. I think I lucked out.
