We all need a place that we can go, And feel over the rainbow

Country artists have advantages all over the place. The radio support is incredible. The fanbase is rabid, all over.

Across the board, from my mother to my father to my aunts and uncles, everybody has always given me a lot of love.

I can relate to soul, R&B... whatever people want to call me is fine. I just hope it makes them feel something.

I'm always flattered and honored when people cover my music or sing my songs, no matter where it is.

I don't really know what 'folk music' means anymore.

I don't really know that there's any real rules for songwriting.
