I've been asked a million times to move to Nashville, but I just can't seem to do it.

Nashville is my home, and the reason why I get to do what I love.

Nashville is wicked. It's like a proper music community, but it's also quintessentially American. You bump into people there with cowboy hats that spit in jars and call you 'boy.' I just love that.

One of my pet peeves about Nashville is that it tends to be copycatted. I don't want to do that. I've got to be different.

I've always been a big fan of Nashville, and I have friends that live there.

Nashville feels like a big little town to me. It's got lots of culture and lots of interesting things to do and lots of interesting people. At the same time, it feels very small and tight-knit and very close. Everyone feels like they know each other.

Nashville's like any other hometown - after a while, it's stifling.

Nashville is a boys' club of redneck conservative ideas. But they're ready to embrace gay people. I never felt for one second that someone was judging me. Some people are like, 'Oh, I love gay people' in that 'I have lots of black friends' kind of way. It's awkward, but you have to appreciate that they're trying.

Ooooh, I love Nashville! It seems like everywhere you walk, there's great music coming out of every wall.

Whenever I've seen shows or films set here, they just don't feel like the real Nashville to me.
