music thinking guitar
So you do shorter versions of the hits, or you take out a long guitar solo or things like that to make time for the hits and new music as well. But I don't think any of us ever get to do as much new music as we would like to.
music country thinking
I came to town thinking that everybody had the same idea of what country music was that I did.
girl past thinking
I think a lot of it had to do with, you know, I was always a daddy's girl. I was always wanting to please him, and I think he was pleased when he'd walk past my room and I was listening to those records.
mom home thinking
It's hard either way, at home or on the bus, I think the hardest thing probably for me is going one second from being mom to right out on the stage and having to be that person too. It's hard to switch gears.
thinking important individual
I think it is very important in this business to be an individual
art jobs thinking
And I think that's a singer's job. You know, to really interpret a lyric. There's an art to it, and I think some people are really great at it, like Tammy Wynette and George Jones and Tony Bennett.
beautiful country thinking
I don't sing country music because I'm not capable of singing other kinds of music; I sing it because I think it's the most beautiful kind of music there is
success congratulations thinking
I think you can have moderate success by copying something else, but if you really want to knock it out of the park, you have to do something different and take chances.
figuring year
I don't have any idea what I'll do next. This year I'll be figuring that out, and something will just come to me, just like it did with this record.
amount bar feels
Having that amount of nominations makes me a little nervous, because you feel that the bar is really high, the expectations are really high, but it also feels great.
cut promised tried
With this album, I tried not to think too much. If I heard a song that I loved, I promised myself I wouldn't over-think it. If I loved it and if I wanted to cut it, I would.
love room
I love my little back room of the bus.
people want i-can
I want to reach as many people as I can
love artist people
But I just love that music scene so much, and I enjoy really being around those artists and watching them even more than I do performing, because they are a whole group of people that do it because they love music.
