The music business is a weird business. Sometimes licensing doesn't happen because some business component that you never knew about stops it.

I'm older than I was, and I'm still washed-up, and I haven't changed my music one iota. It's just much easier to do this when people are being nice to you.

I don't leave my neighborhood. I don't go anywhere. There are four blocks I live in and there are two coffee shops, one at each end of the block... so I don't do much driving... Some people would say they never see me because I don't go anywhere. I stay in the blue state of Nashville, in my bubble.

White people don't sing together very often, and when they do, it's about the celebrity of the song. The singing at my shows is all about harmony.

Billy Joel and Joe Jackson were both great, and they both play piano.

I'm not really a strange person or anything, so if there's music I like, usually there's other people who like it too.

Being capable of anything is a bullshit concept, unless it means you also admit that you're capable of cheating, lying and killing.
