The ability to play the piano or any other instrument is cool, no doubt, but it's not exactly rare. Have you written a classical piece?
I ask because many people play instruments. I myself can play guitar at a fairly high level, but because I find the instrument to be sonically exhausted in music, I've moved on to electronic synthesis.
What I'm saying is that playing an instrument == being a talented songwriter.
Yeah - I agree that guitars are getting boring now. I have heard a few people say this as well. Indeed - it may be the reason behind the decline in guitar bands over the past ten years.

Sick setup man. Nice lute too. I could spend hours in a space like that, esp with a J

Regarding the OP's question...
I write my best music when I am just absolutely sick of all the music that is out there. However, I will hit writers block when there is a record out there that I enjoy listening to. Is my music my favorite? Yes and no. There are elements of songs that I write that I think are above all, but there are also elements that could have beed done better. The problem is, the longer you take to perfect something born from creativity, the more mediocre you will make it. There is no perfect song from start to finish. Its flaws are what give it character. When you try to write a perfect song then you just end up writing a song that sounds like everything else in the genre. Make sense?
