I like that, but isn't he playing in DADGAD? I thought he was a C tunings convert.

#5 has been a big one for me over the years - after hundreds of forgotten lyrics, I now make a note of them on my phone if I don't have a notebook handy.

I'm not sure he doesn't contradict himself a wee bit...
In #3 he seems to suggest that tunes come first (or, at least, they do for Andy Cutting) but, in #4, he suggests words come first. Or maybe he doesn't. What do I know?

I'm not sure #3 necessarily means tunes come first. If you write words first, you still have to come up with a tune. And I'd interpret #4 as being applicable both ways too - sometimes the music needs to be adjusted to fit what you want the words to say, but sometimes the words need adjusting to fit a particularly nice chord sequence or melody line. But I'd definitely agree with you on the last bit Leo...what do I know?
