Even though I've been doing it for so long, I still feel fresh. Even when I walk out on stage, I still feel pretty much the same as I've always felt.

I'm not out there trying to change the world. I'm just out there trying to sing country music the best way I can.

I listen to Mark Chestnutt and think he's a great singer - and he really does good material.

I think that all my albums are different enough where I don't feel like I did this the last time.

You know, legends are people like Haggard and Jones and Wills and Sinatra. Those people are legends. I'm just a young buck out here trying to keep in that same circle with the rest of 'em.

Swing is my favorite kind of music.

My son had toyed with the idea of writing and trying to write a little bit, so that kind of gave me the bug to write also.
