As a songwriter or artist, there's only so many ways you can say, 'I love you' or 'I think you're beautiful.'
I base my track-listing and what songs I pick by what my fans expect from me and what they want and what I think they want.
The industry is always changing, but country music is like a force that always comes back.
I say that I get paid to travel, and I play the shows for free.
Every show I play, whether it's for an audience of 15,000 or 50, I look at it as a party, and I'm the host.
Every artist has a moment where they think about quitting music for a moment because it's scary.
I listen to Lil Wayne, and then I listen to Merle Haggard.
I'm just like my fans, and that's the way I like it.
I'm a romantic at heart.
'Honky Tonk Badonkadonk' wasn't some serious song, but it was huge! It was funny.
Just because you've got a hit doesn't mean you've made it.
From an early age, I was infatuated with music. I always loved it and was always dancing or playing something.
