I need to recharge creatively, and get off the clock of having to be somewhere just because, and having to keep juggling all these things.
You'd think I'd have been happiest in my life playing music in front of 50,000 people at Gillette Stadium. But let me tell you, it's an odd feeling to feel alone in the spotlight.
Be As You Are (Songs From an Old Blue Chair).
When she brought that song to me, I felt like I had something to wrap the rest of the record around, ... Who You'd Be Today was the universal song that I didn't have that I now had, and I was able to go from there and find a few other things that were pieces of the puzzle.
wrap the rest of the album around, a song so universally identifiable that it would make the album have more of a foundation.
We were wild, we were crazy, we were mostly young.
I am incredibly happy. I may well be the luckiest man alive. To be so in love with someone who is so perfect for me. It's just hard to imagine that I'm not going to wake up.
I was at the Academy of Country Music Awards and my first record had just come out. Buck Owens walked up to me, told me he really liked my record and said, 'I believe in your talent. I believe you're three minutes ? one hit song ? from being a big star and finding your own path.' Well, two years ago, Buck walked over to me and said, 'It looks like you got those three minutes, didn't you?' You found six, nine, 12 and 15 of them.' And he told me he was proud of me.
I was so tired that I didn't want to be there, for the first time in 12 years,
I'm all right. I'm good. There have been better times, but I'll be OK.
It's not just in my industry... everything is so sensationalized that there's not a lot of heart and soul in a lot of things there used to be heart and soul in.
This is a bit of curveball, but people who are really good kissers never have anything given to them.
My career was really odd, because I literally had a greatest hits album out and nobody knew who I was. They knew the songs, but they didn't know me.
I've gotten to meet so many people who've inspired me as a human being.
