I've been performing my whole life.

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 find that the very things that I get criticized for, which is usually being different and just doing my own thing and just being original, is the very thing that's making me successful.

I temporarily lost my hope in love, and it was temporary, thank goodness.

So what do you think you're Elvis or something, whatever that don't impress me.

I feel sexy when I get out of the tub - your skin is fresh and you've put up your hair without looking.

So many people bare their midriffs, I don't know why mine is such an issue.
