Bruce Cockburn

The second half of the '60s really was a kind of learning period, in terms of writing, for me.

learning
I woke up one morning with this song in my head, and the opening line of the song is, 'My name was Richard Nixon, only now I'm a girl.'

-Bruce Cockburn

morning
I'd always loved poetry and I'd always loved writing music and composing music, but I hadn't thought of putting the two together until around that time.

poetry
I like to think that if it hadn't gone as well as it has, if I wasn't able to make a living off of playing music, I would still be playing the music. But, of course, I wouldn't likely have had the opportunity to travel, and a lot of the places have inspired songs.
