I really feel like life will dictate itself. You should allow it to unfold as naturally as possible. Just go with the flow. When you're really desperate, you say a few prayers and hope for the best. That's the way I've always lived my life.

The red-carpet spotlight is a little bit more nerve-racking when you haven't been doing it all the time.

If foundations made of stone can turn to dust, then the hardest hearts of steel can turn to rust.

Ain't nothing better, we beat the odds together.

It always disappoints me when I go to a concert and they don't play my favorite song, or at least one of their biggest hits.

It was just like a dream. I could have ended up with an album that's not all that different from anything else coming out of Nashville. Mutt made the difference. He took these songs, my attitude, my creativity, and colored them in a way that is unique.

I do not see my family life in any way, shape, or form as an opportunity for a photo.
