I don't believe that human beings are necessarily monogamous.

Country music was a part of my life. Now it isn't. We had a good relationship, really, but we wanted each other at arm's length. The people in Nashville didn't want to be responsible for my looks or my actions. But they sure did like the listeners I brought.

We all love animals. Why do we call some 'pets' and others 'dinner?'

I think I fall into a lot of cracks in terms of I'm too something. I'm too this, I'm too that. And my music has never really had a home. I've been this floating alternative. I'm too mainstream for alternative. I'm too alternative for mainstream. And I'm just kind of wandering.

Television really has been my vehicle. I don't get played on the radio much, so I've relied on TV a lot.

I grew up in cattle country-that's why I became a vegetarian. Meat stinks, for the animals, the environment, and your health.

I never get tired of exploring Americana or country music, and I always have a little bit of a crooner in me that never seems to go away.
