christian stories want
I just want to make stories. They don't have to have a moral or a reason. There might be some mild cautionary notes, but they're not moral. They don't impart any Judeo-Christian ethic of any kind.
men thinking guitar
I think if you're a lady playing a guitar, other ladies need to see you playing the guitar, and they don't need to see men come out and fix your equipment for you. It just looks incredibly pussy. So I just do it all myself.
country hate independent
I don't know anybody who doesn't hate being called alt.country. It just sounds like a website. I don't mind being called Americana, I don't mind being called country noir, or independent country is fine, but the words alt.country make me insane.
girl want way
I didn't want to be the girl who posed in 'Playboy' and then - by the way - made some music.
animal thinking rights
I think I've kind of been mistaken for somebody who's trying to be a spokesperson for animal rights, and the fact is I'm not qualified to be a spokesperson. I am passionate about it, but I'm not trying to make other people do what I do.
pressure sometimes lays
It's like sometimes, you can just lay back and it takes the pressure off of you.
night drug
What drug will keep night from coming?
giving feelings balance
Making music makes me feel vulnerable in the best possible way. It gives me a feeling of balance.
song writing people
I try not to be overly literal. When I'm writing songs, I write down a lot of words, and then I try to simplify it. I like to give people hints or words that make visual pictures for them.
believe want band
Every band wants to go believe me, not everybody makes it, but they want to.
hypocrite way would-be
I would be a huge hypocrite if I didn't tell you that at one time in my life I thought the way that you made music was you got on a major label and you got famous.
champion important physical-activity
I get outside a lot. I am a huge champion of physical activity. It's so important.
home long band
Everybody in my band is married, pretty much, and have lives at home, and I don't want them to be away from their families so long that they just start to feel psychotic. You have to go home and stand around in your bathrobe doing your dishes to feel like a normal person sometimes.
nervous stage feels
I don't feel nervous or fearful when I'm on stage.
