I have to choose songs that represent my personality.

You can pick songs that sound like hits, but if it's not something that somebody wants to tell their friends, 'Hey man, have you heard this song?' then I don't think it's worth it. The only way to get your music out there, is for someone to tell their friends about it.

You have a song, and people know it. It's like a calling card for you.

If you have a song that you think sounds like another song you should contact the publishing company and say I have a song here, let's cut a deal that lets everyone walk away feeling good.

If I had to associate myself with one song, it would probably be Let Love Rule. It's so simple and to the point. It speaks for itself.

I think of a song in terms of lyrics and stories, and that's what keeps it country for me.

Well, I make every song I sing personal. I've never chosen a song that wasn't.

Most of my songs have names of people I've met or are dear to me. There are people who have privacy issues and about people knowing about their private life. But for me, I like to include few special names and few details about them to make the song very special to me.

My music is inspired by my life: the people in my life, the people I have relationships with, the people I love, the people that make me feel something.
