Chris Young Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Chris Young:

One of the first records I bought for myself was a Keith Whitley record. I still love the 'L.A. to Miami' album. There were so many things on there - 'Miami, My Amy,' 'Ten Feet Away,' 'Nobody in His Right Mind Would've Left Her.' I can put that album on repeat and listen.

Finding new books to read and relaxing is what I enjoy when I do have some time to spend on my own.

My family and I are very close, and they mean more than anything to me, but I'm also the kind of guy who likes to go out with my friends and have a good time on Friday nights.

I studied and sang lot of jazz when I was growing up. I think that plays a little bit into some of the things I do vocally, notes that I pick in chords.

I'm a huge fantasy football fan.

If you aren't already a songwriter, try it. When you can say what you want to say, in your own words, it's incredibly easy to show an audience who you are.

I really love something that's strong vocally and a little more difficult to sing because it's fun.

We didn't have a whole lot of cash growing up. My mom was a single parent for a while before my stepdad came into the picture.

There's probably a couple someones that are gonna hear the songs and go, 'I think that might have been about me,' or, 'I know it's about me.' I do play that pretty close to the vest. I don't think I'm ever gonna write a song and drop somebody's name in it.

My standing gig in college was playing the El Chico patio on Murfreesboro Road. I got $100, tips, and free quesadillas.

When I was making my second record, I was in studio, and I was like, 'No more ballads! Absolutely not!' And somebody walked in with 'The Man I Wanna Be' and I heard it and was like, 'Ah, crap!'

Some of my favorite records growing up were Christmas albums. The ones I liked best were the albums that you could listen to from start to finish. You could put them on while you're decorating the tree or driving around looking at Christmas lights.

Everybody's like, 'You're tall. You didn't play basketball?' They asked me when I was a freshman in high school, and basketball practice was the same time a lot of stuff happened with choir. And I picked choir, which, normally, people would scratch their heads at, but it worked out okay.

Chris Young

I write a lot of my music, but not all of it. I have always subscribed to the 'best song wins' theory when making an album.

Chris Young

Your family are people you lean on and learn from. When I told my family I wanted to do music, they were really supportive.

Chris Young

Everybody has their favorite sad songs. That's part of what I love so much about country music. Country music is never afraid to go with a sad song.
