Quote

I would love to hear someone write a song like 'He Stopped Loving Her Today' rather than 'You're hot. I'm hot. We're in a truck.' It's just mind-numbing to me.

I made records in the past that are as traditional as any other country records that have been made, but at the same time the records have a contemporary slant on it too.

My mom said, What I want is a happy kid, not a rich kid. That's what I root for. She saw how much joy I got from playing music, and those years were leaner than lean!

I do not like being famous. I like being normal.
Vince Gill
Image
I never aspired to be up front. When I was a kid, I didn't ever look in the mirror with a hairbrush going, Hey, I'm Elvis!
Vince Gill

I've always been the high harmony singer. It's never my job to know the verses! But I know the chorus of every song ever made.

Image
It is not that I don't like contemporary country music because I do. I love it. I have recorded a lot and have had great success recording records that have not been very traditional country records.

I've always been more drawn to being normal than being famous.
Vince Gill

My last two records that I made were both quite pointed in one direction and I think I do my best stuff when it's all over the map, when there's a couple traditional things, a couple pretty rocking things.

It really does take a lot of time to make records, to be in the studio and do all that stuff.

When I look back, I don't remember the best of the best. I don't remember arena shows with 20,000 people. I remember funky little bar gigs where nobody shows up. The weirdest of the weird are what you retain.

I don't want to impress somebody, I want to move somebody. Say the most with the least.

I'm a musician, so for the most part I've always thought that the musicians were equally as inspiring to listen to - maybe more so, in some cases - in addition to the artists.

Success is always temporary. When all is said and one, the only thing you'll have left is your character.

Image
I formally proposed. I'm a good Southern gentleman.

You can't define the ache that's in George's voice. It's just something inherently him. It doesn't need definition. It doesn't need clarification. It doesn't need a lot of things. You just sit back and appreciate it. It's just greatness.

When you ask a songwriter, What's your favorite song? he goes, The next one.

So I didn't have anything to do with picking the songs, but I got to musically take them in places I thought might be interesting, so it was a real neat collaboration among the three of us.

Whether it is successful or not is not the exercise for me. It is not up to me. It is out of my hands now. I am not going to in two years have hindsight and say I made a big mistake.

It would be fun to go back and see where all my songs stopped, because I think I'd have every number in the top 100. It never ceases to amaze me. It still hurts when one doesn't work, because you put your heart and soul into it.

I am responsible for me. I can kind of take care of what I need to do and should do what I like to do.
