Pilgrims travel to Jerusalem to see the Holy Land, and the foundations of their faith. People go to Washington, D.C. to see the workings of government, and the foundation of our country. And fans flock to Nashville to see the foundation of country music, the Grand Ole Opry.
The nice thing about the world that I've been able to inhabit for the last couple of years is that I'm given a lot of freedom. Not all artists really get that.
I changed my mindset and figured, Why not try to be really entertaining instrumentally?
She's a yellow pair of running shoes, a holey pair of jeans. She looks great in cheap sunglasses, she looks great in anything. She's, "I want a piece of chocolate cake; take me to a movie." She's a, "I can't find a thing to wear." Now and then she's moody. She's a Saturn with a sunroof with her brown hair blowing. She's a warm conversation I wouldn't miss for nothing. She's a fighter when she's mad and she's a lover when she's lovin'.
Anytime you do something from the heart, people just know it.
It should feel a lot like my other albums that way, in that it's a progression and there are different themes and you go from one topic to another and it feels a little bit like a life journey, I think.
The days get boring. The thing I like least would be the traveling. It's never fun to check baggage three or four times in a couple days.
I never thought I'd be singing this for my friend.
Some artists would rather go in there and let some other things dictate the kind of record they do, but I've got such a great team.
Buck gave birth to a movement. At the time when he came through, his music was so different. He was a maverick in the true sense of the word.
I think the way you keep from succumbing to that temptation of Nashville to follow the mainstream is, you have to look inside yourself.
I can't help but include some of the lighthearted stuff. I guess that's the way I observe things. My favorite saying is, 'If you're going to laugh about something later, you might as well start now.
I don't have any interest in doing something that's weak musically.
It's fun to be up for multiple things. It's nice to look at the list this time and it not all be for one song.
