I Try To See The Good In

My Music Is So Mine, It's Hard To Turn It Over To Someone Else. I Have To Be Really Involved In The Production. It's Like Someone Else Taking Care Of Your Kids - If They Don't Treat Them Well, You're Going To Be Pissed Off. I'm Actually Co-producing [backwoods] With My Guitar Player Of 20 Years, Kent Wells. We Make A Good Combination... I Think We're Going To Have A Real Good Record.

I Think [music And Acting], They Are Connected, All That Stuff. It's Your Emotional Self, Is Pretty Much How You Do It, I Think, From Whatever Place You Do It, Whether You're Acting Or You're Singing.

I Think Gay Couples Should Be Allowed To Marry. They Should Suffer Just Like Us Heterosexuals.

I Had To Get Rich So I Could Afford To Sing Like I Was Poor Again.

I Think My Life Actually Changed At 40. That's When You Realize You Can't Ride The Fence Anymore. You Either Have To Get On One Side Or The Other. I Think Some Of My Best Years Were Between 40 And 50: I Got My Priorities Straight And Life Is Good To Me Now. It's Only Other People Who Say, "god, She's 50 Years Old!" As If I'm Over The Hill. I Feel Like I Just Started.
