More quotes by Alan Jackson
I could have done a hundred songs, really. It was hard to narrow them down, because I tried to pick songs for the most part that actually did have some effect on me or influenced me in the past.
Alan Jackson
What I enjoy doing more than anything is, I have my little antique car collection, and when the weather is pretty I like to get out one of my old cars. I have a little route I run down in the country, down Nachez Trace Parkway. The loop down through there is just really relaxing, not much traffic.
Alan Jackson
Oklahoma's always been good to me.
Alan Jackson
You have to be tough-skinned and willing to accept criticism, and at the same time, just try to do music that you like and you are proud of and not just whatever you think it's going to take to get you on the radio.
Alan Jackson
I don't write all my stuff. Everybody always thinks that. But in just about every album I've ever had has been about 50-50 songs I've written or co-written and other people's songs.
Alan Jackson
I've always wanted to make a bluegrass album.
Alan Jackson
Hee Haw was probably my biggest exposure to live music at a young age, because there wasn't any live music around my town and no one in my family played instruments.
Alan Jackson
You think a lot of people get to be big stars and get a little crazy, but most of the ones I've ever met have always been surprisingly normal, and I've enjoyed that.
Alan Jackson
Faith, hope, and love are some good things He gave us but the greatest is love
Alan Jackson
I like to write sad songs. They're much easier to write and you get a lot more emotion into them. But people don't want to hear them as much. And radio definitely doesn't they want that positive, uptempo thing.
Alan Jackson
Wembley way is beginning to blacked with people in terms of red and blue
Alan Jackson
I grew up with nothing, so whenever I got to where I could have something I felt like I needed to have everything I couldn't have when I was young.
Alan Jackson
A country song is a song about life.
Alan Jackson
Pour me something tall and strong, make it a Hurricane before I go insane. It's only half past twelve but I don't care, it's 5 O'clock somewhere.
Alan Jackson
As long as I'm still able to have a hit on the radio and sell a few albums and some tickets, I don't see that it would be worth retiring.
Alan Jackson
He's written some great songs. I thought that Blues Man was a perfect song for me to do as a tribute.
Alan Jackson
If anything good came out of 9/11, to me, was that people were so cynical about the world - all you hear about on the news is all the bad stuff everyday, but what was refreshing to me was after that, you saw how many good people there are out there. For every one bad one, there's a thousand good ones.
Alan Jackson
I mean, my voice has gotten a little deeper sounding as I've gotten older, I think. I noticed that.
Alan Jackson
To me, songwriting is the backbone of Nashville. Looks can go, fads can go, but a good song lasts forever.
Alan Jackson
I'm hooked on my baby's love, there ain't nothing in the jug this strong.
