Country singer Gwen Stefani says the new music she worked on following her split from Gavin Rossdale was a eased her pain.
The "Used to Love You" singer penned her latest album, 'This Is What The Truth Feels Like,' after ending her marriage with Gavin Rossdale and for her the music came as a "band-aid from God," reported Female First.
"I feel like God just handed these songs to me as a kind of Band-Aid, to help me through this crazy time in my life. And it's all about finding your talent and then sharing it.
"I think of being able to pour my emotions into songs as a gift. It's very gratifying to be able to go through those difficult and negative feelings and use them to create something positive," Stefani, 47, said.
The singer said she was being selfish in not sharing her work and talents in the wake of her marriage split.
"It was a wake-up call. When things started to unravel in my life last year, I thought to myself, 'Get back on track and stop being insecure about writing and what you're here for. Stop being selfish and share what you've got.
