It's nice to marry your best friend. It suits me.

I grew up in Tennessee where you either play football or you don't do anything at all. So I was a bit of loner, being interested in music.

I didn't put out this album because I wanted everybody to know I was grown up. I'm 21 and that's not grown up.

I get way more nervous playing golf in front of 500 people than being on stage in front of 20,000 people.

I will always come with something that's aesthetically pleasing.

I'm a very melody-driven writer and I have a rule that I don't write anything down because if I can't remember the melody than it wasn't worth remembering. So it's my way to test myself in the studio. When I was a kid I could sing pretty well so melody always made a lot of sense to me.

The Grammys used me for ratings. And they were up 18 percent!
