Rihanna wants to make 'timeless' songs

R&B star Rihanna has confessed she wants to start making "timeless" music.

The Diamonds hitmaker said she no longer enjoys performing a lot of her hit songs from her successful 10 year career as she feels she's outgrown them, reported MTV online.

"I've made a lot of songs that are just really, really big songs that just blow up and I wanted to just kind of get back to, well not that they weren't real music, but I just wanted to focus on things that felt real, things that felt soulful, that felt forever.

"I wanted songs that I can perform in fifteen years. I want an album that I can perform in 15 years, not any songs that will burn out. I find that when I get on stage now I don't want to perform a lot of my songs because they don't feel like me so I want to make songs that are timeless." she added.
