Maybe some people thought I was 'safe' so they didn't really bothered to vote for me at all.

For me, I want my kids to find their way. If they're interested in something, I want them to try it out.

I don't want to say I can't wait to get back to normal life, because I don't. I don't want to get back to normal life.

I was always in bands before, but on 'American Idol,' it was about getting my voice out there. It was always my goal, though, to get a band together again.

I'm not ashamed of selling millions of records. I'm very fortunate to be in that position.

My wife, if she wants it, she will just go out and buy it.

I get to hang out with Billy Bob Thornton at his house. We hang out over there every time we're in L.A., because he doesn't go out. We'll hang and he'll play us some of his tunes. It's pretty awesome.
