I would hope my legacy would be bringing smiles to faces. Happiness with my music.

I was out once and had wine and I got sick to my stomach, and I vowed I would never drink again.

To have someone to relate to and hopefully enjoy the music and get a positive message out of it, to make the best music that we possibly could, those were the goals.

I was a very quiet kid. A really sweet kid, I might add.

I was two when we left Indiana, and I don't really remember it that well.

When you hear bad things about yourself, just put your energies into something else; it's no good crying about it. Just put it into your music - it'll make you stronger.

My parents were strict. They weren't as strict on me as they were with the others, but my mother didn't want us to get on anyone's nerves... Go to someone else's house and drive their parents crazy. Another thing was they didn't want us to get into a lot of things that a lot of kids - if they're not careful - can slip into.
