Glen Hansard on a Life of Songs

I don’t feel like I’m too much of a nostalgist, so it’s difficult for me to get behind lyrics that I wrote all that time ago, unless I can sort of reconfigure them into my life now. That’s why certain songs have a life, and certain songs don’t. A song is like a saddle: you ride it for a while, and if it’s the right kind of song you can sing it for the rest of your life. And then other songs are only really important for certain periods of your life, and you move on from them and find yourself not necessarily needing to sing them anymore. I’m happy where I’m at right now with this batch.

― R.I.P. Glen Hansard (1970-2026), quote from Interview Magazine
