I've always been more drawn to being normal than being famous.

The funny thing is, people's perceptions of what a song is about is usually wrong a majority of the time. But they're still going to read what they want to into it.

I formally proposed. I'm a good Southern gentleman.

My mom said, "What I want is a happy kid, not a rich kid. That's what I root for." She saw how much joy I got from playing music, and those years were leaner than lean!

A lot of people play to impress, but the really gifted ones play to move. That's the greatest point of ever doing this.

I had just lost my dad and I remembered all the songs we used to go and hear at concerts, and the records around the house and sometimes we'd play together.
