Country radio is much more like a family than any other group of people that I've met.

Wondering why we bother with love, if it never lasts.

I like to write about relationships. I like it when my friends come over and we crowd around the piano and sing Journey songs at the top of our lungs... And I like things that make me feel seven again. I don't ever look down on people for the way they choose to have fun; it's just not necessarily the way I like to have fun.

I like organizing things. I like organizing my closets, so that I know where everything is. And and I used to color code it.

There are two ways you can go with pain: You can let it destroy you or you can use it as fuel to drive you.

(Talks about a school production) 'There was one solo; but it was a guy. It was this character called 'Freddy Fast Talk' and it was the bad guy. I didn't care, I was like I will dress up like a guy, I want to sing that song. And so I remembered we drew on eyebrows, and I had like a moustache,and we put all my hair up in this hat. So I dressed like a guy and sang the solo.

The truth of it is that every singer out there with songs on the radio is raising the next generation. So make your words count.
