There's A Lot Of People I'd Love

I Think It's Important To Do Things That You're Interested In. I Think It's Important To Have Other Outlets Away From The Music Industry.

People See You Onstage And The Glamorous Side, But They Don't See You Traveling 600 Miles A Night, Eating Truck Stop Food And Spending By Yourself Staring At Walls.

To Me, A Critic Is Someone Who Gets Paid For Their Opinion, And They're Entitled To That Opinion But I Don't Really Put A Lot Of Stock Into Their Opinion. I'm Going To Cut The Kind Of Records And The Kind Of Songs That I Like, And The Kind Of Things That I Enjoy Doing. If Critics Dig It, That's Fine, If They Don't, That's Fine.

I Think Every Artist Wants To Have That 'grammy Award Winner' Tag In Front Of Their Name.

I Didn't Want My Records To Sound Like Anybody Else, And When I've Got My Guys In The Studio, I Have A Language With Those Guys Because We Work Together Every Day. A Lot Of Times, You Bring In Outside Guys, Studio Players, Whatever, And They're Great Musicians. It's Just That They Don't Necessarily Play The Way I Want It To Be Played.
