Sara Bareilles had writing block so badly she worried she’d never write another track for her latest record.<\/p>\n
The ‘King Of Anything’ singer became panicked when she couldn’t finish any tracks for ‘Kaleidoscope Heart’, and it took a huge breakthrough in the shape of the track ‘Uncharted’ to get her back on track. <\/p>\n
She told BANG Showbiz: “I was having a terrible bout of writers block and couldn’t finish a song for the life of me. <\/p>\n
“It went from being a nuisance, to actually being really scary. I was having irrational thoughts of, ‘maybe I’m never going to write another song again, maybe it’s all been a fluke; maybe I actually can’t write songs?’<\/p>\n
“You start reaching all these incredible new depths of self doubt and then ‘Uncharted’ just came out of nowhere. It was a place for me to put all those fears, and it was like a lightning bolt. <\/p>\n
“As soon as that was finished, the rest of the record came together.”<\/p>\n
Sara, 31, added when she hits her stride, a song can come to her very quickly, and a quick flash of inspiration resulted in her biggest hit to date, ‘Love Song’. <\/p>\n
She added: “I’ve been writing for years and I have songs which came out in a couple of hours.<\/p>\n
“‘Lovesong’ was a very quick write, it came in a couple of hours, sometimes when it comes out quickly like that, it signifies you may be channelling something. Those are really special songs.”<\/p>\n
‘Kaleidoscope Heart’ is out now and Sara is currently on tour in Europe with Maroon 5.<\/p>\n
