Page "Augie March" Paragraph 2
from
Wikipedia
Songwriting for Augie March is primarily initiated by Richards ; he delivers demos to the rest of the band members who then collaborate with him to develop the music.
Kathy McCabe of The Daily Telegraph suggests " almost every songwriter in Australia has name-checked as one of the finest tunesmiths of his generation " and that " Richards is a storyteller who is spoken of in reverential terms by peers ".
Richards simply states that he enjoys " dabbling with words ", and that people often appreciate him doing so.
At the 2006 ARIA Awards, Midnight Oil's Rob Hirst called for more political songs ; Richards told Simon Collins of The West Australian he saw great risk in writing political music, and would rather write music that rung true, so that " I can sing the song a thousand times after it's been written ".
