I'm a proud family man.

Texas is a pretty free state.

Oklahoma is very entrepreneurial.

We've always believed in our music.

I've got angels watching out for me.

The crowds in Milwaukee are awesome.

Don't misunderstand good manners for passivity.

I'm a romantic fool. I always end up getting hurt.

In a phrase: I always hope it keeps getting better.

Christmas albums are not something you do frequently.

Most of our shows are about two and a half hours long.

We felt like, first and foremost, we were songwriters.

We're Midwestern guys who grew up listening to soul music.

Everybody has their demons; everyone has their challenges.

Being an entrepreneur means being a creative businessperson.

I joke that we're not dissimilar to a rock band in the '70s.

People my age don't always know where their music comes from.

The nice thing about England is that they actually speak English.

Eventually, the bad boy image affects fans' willingness to show up.

We have always adapted ourselves to the songs instead of vice versa.

Everybody has their ups and downs, and that's what makes you tougher.

We said from the very beginning that we're in this for the long haul.

One of the things I want to do as an artist is to connect generations.

There are very few people who have done more than one Christmas album.

We've sold over 100,000 records so far, and we're an independent label.

I'm doing what I do for the right reasons. I love the music that I make.

Taylor being married and so on, that does evolve the dynamic on the road.

We were writing songs about girls when we still thought girls had cooties.

As an artist or musician, you want to be remembered for the music you make.

Word of mouth is way more important than millions of dollars spent marketing.

We didn't want our kids raised in a place plagued by smog and plastic surgery.

There's something extraordinary about selling millions and millions of albums.

I think downloading is both saving and killing the music industry at the same time.

Careers are like roller coasters. You go up, you go down, and you spin yourself around.

We can do things that are very, very simple to us that can have a huge impact on others.

There are some seminal things that happened in the '70s for me: Billy Joel and Jackson 5.

I want my kids to know that what I do is work. It's fun, it's a great job, but it's work.

You could say singing is in our genes. Both our parents sang and made up songs constantly.

I feel like, in some level, in our biggest moments of success we were always the underdog.

But anyone who knows anything about the music industry knows it's not only about the music.

Love is giving up your needs for the sake of someone else, in some other words its sacrifice

I enjoyed making this album a lot because of the knowledge we acquired over the last 3 years.

My parents were never condescending to us. They treated us like adults from a very young age.

Getting to make the music, and having a good time doing it, is the most important thing to us.

Actually, I don't think there's anyone that represents the artists, except the artists themselves.

We legitimately walked into 'Anthem' head-on, not paying enough attention to internal band tension.

I just want to write a great lyric and write a great song, and everything else is icing on the cake.

Brick-and-mortar at the end of the day matters because viral is great, but it comes and goes as fast.

We've done enough - and made enough mistakes - to pretty well know how to guide our careers ourselves.

As much as we were very proud of being a pop band, I know we never felt like we fit into that category.
