'Need You Now' is a universal subject matter. It's something that not just country fans, not just pop fans - everybody's been there. And the production was a little left of center.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If we were to use the success of 'Need You Now' as the barometer for every other song, then we'll probably be highly disappointed. That song will probably undoubtedly be the biggest song of our career. We can hopefully have success for 20 years, but we may not ever have the success of that one particular song again.

I feel like fans who like old Southern rock and country, and more lyric-driven songs in general, have come to country radio. I think that's why you see country radio growing and albums selling: People are craving a little more of the singer-songwriter stuff going on in country.
I'm excited to be part of a movement that's progressing country music. There's always gonna be people saying, 'It ain't country anymore,' but I don't get into that whole deal.
I've always wanted to be accepted by country music fans - without lying.
Before I really knew country music, I listened to pop, and I still do.
That internal ache is the starting point of country music. If it's a happy song and I can still feel sad in it? That's my favorite.
If I wanted to be a pop singer, I would have done that 20 years ago. I love country music.
