On the road, I weigh 168. At home, ten more.

I think a lot of men are afraid of pretty things, and I'm not, I like pretty songs.

I try and eat good. On the road, that's next to impossible. And we eat a lot of unhealthy things when we're in Texas - that's what you do there.

My parents split up when I was about 2. I realize more and more how much I'm like my father. My gentleness comes from my mother.

I love Motown, but I've obviously always been more of a Memphis soul fan. If it's Stax or Motown, I go Stax.

I discovered the same thing Gram Parsons did, that soul music and country music are practically identical. Based off of the same chord structures, and the songs are of heartache and loss. The main connection is they both came up in church.

I know I'm never going to be a big pop star, because I'm not willing to conform.
