“I’m not Prince or Rivers Cuomo who brags about having hundreds of great songs. And to that I would say, Prince, if you have a hundred great songs or a thousand, how about picking a few and putting them on your record that you’ve put out because your last several have sucked. Same for you, Rivers. I say that constructively, you know.” (The Daily Swarm)

Trent on his own material:

Some songs you realize don’t go as well as you wish they would. When I finished “With Teeth” I thought The Collector was my favorite song on the record, but everytime I played that live – there were lots of blank faces looking back at you. You can judge peoples reactions. Full video interview here.

Radio companies could pay as much as $500 million a year in royalties to record labels and artists if new legistlation is passed. Artists such as Bono and Tony Bennett spoke out in favor of the bill at a recent Congressional briefing. Radio already pays out millions of dollars to songwriters and publishers.

Radio companies argue that they are already promoting and marketing artists for the labels by playing their music. Others say music promotes radio these days since people learn about music from so many different sources.

Shouldn’t radio pay performance royalties? Absolutely. Songwriters get paid and the one singing the song should get paid.
