Success and the art of making music are two different things for me.

During my first photo shoot, I was unhappy because they put so much makeup on me and straightened my hair. I've been stubborn ever since.

I always try to do something different. I don't think I've made the same record over and over.

I've learned now to talk, act or walk famous. I can still walk around New York, without being molested or bothered. I don't mind autographs - that's part of it. I just do not see the point of being "out there" or behaving outrageously. It will bring nothing but trouble.

I wasn't very aware of pop music because I attended an arts school. For me, it was all about jazz.

I'm super-fortunate to have any fans still.

When I moved to New York, I fell head over heels back into country music and probably 'cause I missed something about Texas.
