More From Etta James

That's what is so great about being able to record a 13-song album. you can do a very eclectic group of songs. you do have some almost pop songs in there, but you do have your traditional country, story songs. you have your ballads, your happy songs, your sad songs, your love songs, and your feisty songs.
Country Song Eclectic Style
I can't stress enough how important it is to write bad songs. there's a lot of people who don't want to finish songs because they don't think they're any good. well they're not good enough. write it! i want you to write me the worst songs you could possible write me because you won't write bad songs. you're thinking they're bad so you don't have to finish it. that's what i really think it is. well it's all right. well, how do you know? it's not done!
Song Stress Writing
We cannot choose how many years we will live, but we can choose how much life those years will have. we cannot control the beauty of our face, but we can control the expression on it. we cannot control life's difficult moments but we can choose to make life less difficult. we cannot control the negative atmosphere of the world, but we can control the atmosphere of our minds. too often we try to choose and control things we cannot. too seldom we choose to control what we can ... our attitude.
Attitude Optimistic Expression
I'd had my whole life to write my first album. i had my no. 1 and my third single out, and they go, 'hey, guess what? we need to start recording the next one.' i'm like, 'uh oh, i got to write another album. well, how am i gonna write 'should've been a cowboy' and 'ain't worth missing' and all that again?' it took me forever to write the first one.
Writing Cowboy Forever
I start songs all the time. if i weren't so lazy, i would finish them. it's like when i have a deadline i have to. i always feel very lucky that i am forced to make records at certain times. if i was forced to make 2 records a year, i would write twice as many songs. i can't make myself finish something unless i am forced
Song Writing Years
We've always had the blame-america crowd. we've always had the hate-america crowd. but we've now had at least two generations of education where this has been indoctrinated into the young skulls full of mush of young people. they've heard how horrible america was back in the days of slavery. they've heard how horrible america treated women. they've heard how horrible every minority group was treated. they've heard how mean-spirited the founders were. they've heard all kinds of literal lies.

Love Art Lying
Barack obama thinks he's universally loved and adored because of that approval rating, which is a lie or a misrepresentation. it's mainly people that don't have the guts to tell a pollster that they disapprove of the job because of the racial component, because whenever obama's policies are on the ballot, they get skunked! if he's on ballot with them, not so bad.
