The nature of the music business is such that it’s better to have a few chances for some things to be successful than just one, and that’s kind of been my attitude all along.
Adam Schlesinger
When you’re writing for a show, you’re writing part of the script. You have to tell the story.

I’m just like anybody else: I have stuff to do in the day, whether that’s writing a song or recording a song. I try to treat everything I do as just work.
