I love my wife more than anything in the world, but boy when she had our babies, it quadrupled. There's just something about the connection.

Some say it's too country, some say it's too rock n' roll. But it's just good music if you can feel it in your soul.

I'm coming up on 40 next year, and after making so many records and doing music for so long, I'm looking for a change and a different perspective. And every now and then, I think I have something I want to say.

It's innate in me to be a blue-dog Democrat. I'm not saying I'm right or wrong, but that's what I am. My wife and I and our family will do everything we can to support Obama. I like his ideas, I like his energy, and I like the statement he would make for our country to the world.

I think the best thing, or the greatest thing my girls have going for them, is having their mother as a role model.

I mean, I grew up riding. I can't ever remember not being able to ride or rope and all that stuff. It was part of my life growing up, so it was fun for me.
