What is creativity? Where does it come from? Whether it is defined as coming from God, the universe, or some collective font of eternal knowledge, most creative individuals acknowledge that at times their inspiration seems to emanate from a mysterious metaphysical source.

In this collection of insightful and inspirational interviews with the world's top songwriters, we get an inside glimpse of how some of our favorite songs were created, and how songwriters often call on a higher power to help facilitate the creative process.
