Zitat des Tages von Chely Wright:
I recruited my dad to be my bass player and fired him on several occasions. He stayed on as a bus driver.
I came along at a time when the industry was eating its young.
I've learned a lot about my voice, and about things I can do with it. Maybe that's why my sound has become a little more pop.
All I ever wanted to do was write songs and get on a bus and go play them for people.
Being born in Kansas City, Missouri and raised in the very rural parts of Kansas led me to believe that everything was simple, everything made sense and that anything was possible.
I'm a Scorpio, and who knows if there is any validity to it, but I'm very emotional. I have high highs and low lows.
I guess we guess our way through life. How many times do we really know for sure?
I'm very much a traditionalist, but I think it's important to know about tradition so that you can evolve the music you are deciding to make.
As a young girl, there were the obvious messages about what girls could and couldn't achieve. And to compound the limitations I felt being leveled upon me, I realized at the age of nine, that I was gay.
I wish I had a great relationship with my mother.
I grew up in a very modest house. We were poor-we lived on the poverty level. We all got jobs as young kids.
I'm not a Democrat, I'm not a Republican-I'm an American, I'm a human.
I've saved every dime I've made in my life.
If I wanted to be a pop singer, I would have done that 20 years ago. I love country music.
