I was watching the show last year and it didn't even cross my mind that this could even happen.
I want to go to Nashville and get cracking on this album.
I'm still single, but me and Lauren are really really really close friends.
Just the title of 'American Idol' is something that people can look up to. I'm not Saint Scott, I'm not Mr. Perfect, but I want to be that role model.
You gotta *be* country music - you can't just sing it.
Somebody described it to me the best as when you go in to write a song with two people that you've never met, you're pretty much going in and taking off your pants in front of strangers, so it's a really weird feeling.
