If you give a good performance, something that gets some feeling across to people, that's such a rare gift. It's underestimated at this point in history, when the music biz is inevitably turning into a kind of politics.
When I say 'rare,' it's my own term. It's like you're doing something with a photo that is dominant that no one has ever seen before. #Rare means that it can only be seen here. It's just a rare moment that I'm sharing with the world.

When it comes to best new artist or album or song of the year, yeah, it's very rare that you see someone in country win one of those.

Any feeling that I was enriching my mind from those surrounding me was unfortunately rare with me.
Friendship without self-interest is one of the rare and beautiful things of life.
