More quotes by Kenny Chesney
I'm proud of the fact that I'm at a point in my career that if I want to take a little bit of a left turn and make an album that is more hushed, more acoustic and more personal, that I can do it.
Kenny Chesney
When I was playing for tips in college, I felt a fire in my soul. I had the same principle of focus that I had learned playing football.
Kenny Chesney
I was on one bus with my band and crew for seven years. I didn't come to town with a karaoke tape. I didn't get on a TV show. There were no shortcuts. Anybody who wants to follow my model is welcome to it. You don't want to follow my path.
Kenny Chesney
There were years of that stuff that will never leave me. Never. When the bus turned a million miles - that's a lot of traveling. It's really cool to think about. I'm blessed to have traveled a million miles on a tour bus.
Kenny Chesney
Record labels today are much less patient: Artists have a bad record, and they're gone.
Kenny Chesney
When I'm onstage I just want to feel as comfortable as I possibly can.
Kenny Chesney
In 21 years there are a lot of ups and downs. There are melancholy times. There are sad times. There are happy times. There are unsure times. There are life lessons.
Kenny Chesney
One of these days we're gonna have to grow up, have to get real jobs and be adults, someday, just not today.
Kenny Chesney
He had a voice that was the truth, raw and unfiltered. You can't get any realer, any more tortured or any more alive. No one can do what George Jones does, and that's why 50 years later, he still stands out as one of the greatest singers in any genre of all time.
Kenny Chesney
Believe it or not, I want to keep growing my audience.
Kenny Chesney
I took a complete year off the road, but a big part of that year was making 'The Big Revival.' I needed that down time just so I could concentrate. The one thing that starts it all for us is the music. That's what you create in the studio. That's where the magic happens.
Kenny Chesney
I like to rock and roll, but I'm a mushy guy, too. I want to be the guy that all the girls love and all the guys want to hang out with.
Kenny Chesney
I do sing about drinking, but it's in a party way. I don't sing about drinking in a drowning-my-sorrows way, like in George Jones's If Drinking Don't Kill Me (Her Memory Will).
Kenny Chesney
It's very hard for me to relax.

I want to spend more time with my family.
Kenny Chesney
The title [of the album 'The Big Revival']alone fit what I was feeling. It defined what I was going through. That year off was a time to revive, to reset, to reclaim, to revitalize and to re-focus. It was a revival of how I made music, how I presented it and my connection with the fans.
Kenny Chesney
What good is it if a guy can sing real good but he sits on his ass and doesn't make anybody feel anything? I can connect with an audience every time I play. When I sing, they listen.
Kenny Chesney
I can stay on my boat for a few weeks if I have a guitar and a girl and a Bob Marley CD. After that, I've got to move around.
Kenny Chesney
Just because I don't sing about the normal country themes doesn't mean my songs aren't country. I'd rather sing about having fun.
Kenny Chesney
