Four Quote by Andrew Bird

“I think any songwriter or record, no matter how good it is, can become tedious if it's the same person's point of view. After four tracks, you start to get worn down no matter how good it is. It can be relentlessly good, but it's still going to wear you out.” quote by Andrew Bird — Download Open image
