Zitat des Tages von Patty Loveless:
When I listen to my own records, I always think, 'Oh, I could have sung that so much better.' But you have to finish something and turn it in. If I didn't have folks who say, 'Come on, we need the record now,' I probably would never finish one.
It's kind of odd when you think of Loretta Lynn, when she was first traveling and recording country music. It was all built through word of mouth. If you pleased the fans, they would pass it around to their friends and family.
My sister, Dottie, suffered from COPD for quite a few years before we knew what it was. Hers was a form of emphysema, and she was 48 when she passed away.
I love Miranda Lambert; I think she's wonderful. I love the song 'Love Letters' and 'Famous in a Small Town.'
Music was always a big part of my family. Only a few of us had the talent - or the courage - to walk out on a stage.
I recalled how a lot of my older siblings would go to a friend's house and borrow records to play and sometimes borrow a turntable because we didn't have a turntable in the house until I was 8, about the same time we had a TV.
I go out and walk around the yard. Sometimes I'll cut grass.
It's hard for me to sit still. Now if you'll sit me in front of a great old movie, I'll sit still, because I love that, too.
I started to perform when I was 12... I don't talk too much. I let the music do the talking.
My dad never missed a day of work, and he was always smiling when he came home.
I've had a wonderful career and shared the stage with Vince Gill, who was my second love.
I look for songs that the listener, when they hear it, they believe what I'm singing about, that I know what I'm singing about. That's my whole deal. I try to choose songs that a male or a female can perform and relate to.
