There are lots of emotions that go with the Fourth of July.

I grew up in New York City, and I've got wonderful memories of the Fourth of July fireworks.

May it be long before the people of the United States shall cease to take a deep and pervading interest in the Fourth of July, as the birthday of our national life, or the event which then occurred shall be subordinated to any other of our national history.

A concert is not a live rendition of our album. It's a theatrica! event.

I didn't spend much time in America, which probably was a mistake. To someone else, having a number one in America would be enough to get them touring.

I always have the most fun on the Fourth of July. You don't have to exchange any gifts. You just go to the beach and watch fireworks. It's always fun.

No other date on the calendar more potently symbolizes all that our nation stands for than the Fourth of July.

How wonderful it is to be an American. We have known the best of times and the worst of times.

My early childhood memories center around this typical American country store and life in a small American town, including 4th of July celebrations marked by fireworks and patriotic music played from a pavilion bandstand.

I've built a solid career there, but America's ten times the size. Now that we're onto the third record, I feel like the stars have aligned and American audiences are embracing my music even more.
