Don't change a thing. That's one of the best gimmicks a band could ever come up with.
Nashville, there's people that are ten times more talented than me, ten times better singer than me, song writer than me, but for some reason you get the ball, and now - and now you run with it. And you do the best you can.
You know me, I've got to find some way to get a fresh fire.
My hardest thing was to let go, to be happy for everybody and just to enjoy. And go back to being what you were before you became an artist, and that was just a fan.
We call them cool, those hearts that have no scars to show. The one's who never do let go. And risk the tables being turned.
In our house, everyone's opinion is welcome. I grew up in a house where everything wasn't when it came to politics or religion.
The most important days, more than any Grammy award thing or anything, is the day that you're responsible for snacks after the game.
If we see too much of one person, even though we like that person, we start to kind of pull for other people.
Happiness isn't getting what you want, it's wanting what you got.
You know a dream is like a river/ Ever changing as it flows./ And a dreamer's not just a vessel/ That must flow where it goes.
When I play Make You Feel My Love and it gets one of the best ovations of the night, that makes me feel like we're loved for things we do.
Passion is something you'd easily die for. It's something you'd be honored to die for. It's something that's stronger than any machine man can create. It actually gives a mortal person wings.
The cool thing about passion is that no matter how good or bad a day you're having, tomorrow's going to be better because passion finds some way of doubling itself.
If you want to know how important Portland is to me, there's no Saturday night gigs here. They weren't available. So our whole thing coming into Portland, which is going to be different from anybody else, any other city, is every night is Saturday night.
