This is just strictly me wanting to make a record that is the real deal. It is all the stuff that I have learned and know that I remember. It's what I perceive as country music is about.

More quotes by Vince Gill
And from my place, and from the time that I went through my divorce, I also had my father pass away in the middle of all that. And it kind of made everything else just kind of like the back burner, you know.
Vince Gill
I don't chase what everyone else is looking for. Being creative is all about you.
Vince Gill
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.
Vince Gill
We all get caught up in the process, especially when you have a wave of success. But to me, being creative is not about rehashing everything you've done over and over. It's to continue to grow, continue to get better.
Vince Gill
I've never been in the studio where it felt like I didn't have a voice. Whether I was co-producing or producing by myself, this community is the one place where I really see democracy at its purest.
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.
Vince Gill
When you lose people that are close to you it brings everything into focus, and the rest kind of gets put on the back burner.
Vince Gill
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.
Vince Gill
I do not like being famous. I like being normal.
Vince Gill
I've always been more drawn to being normal than being famous.
Vince Gill
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.
Vince Gill
The real beauty of it - key to my life was playing key chords on a banjo. For somebody else it may be a golf club that mom and dad put in their hands or a baseball or ballet lessons. Real gift to give to me and put it in writing.
Vince Gill
A lot of people play to impress, but the really gifted ones play to move. That's the greatest point of ever doing this.
Vince Gill
It really does take a lot of time to make records, to be in the studio and do all that stuff.
Vince Gill
The real amazing thing about all of this is I think I've maintained the mentality of a musician throughout it all, which I'm proudest of. And I'm still playing on people's records and singing on people's records.
Vince Gill
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.
Vince Gill
You learn a whole lot more about a person if they have bad breaks and all those kind of things.
Vince Gill
Success is always temporary. When all is said and one, the only thing you'll have left is your character.
Vince Gill
The funny thing is, people's perceptions of what a song is about is usually wrong a majority of the time. But they're still going to read what they want to into it.
Vince Gill
Yes, the companionship is amazing. You know, you can get that physical attraction that happens is great, but then there's an awful lot of time and the rest of the day that you have to fill.
