One night I was sitting listening to some Hank Williams songs - and they'll change your life in a hurry.

It's funny, now that we have Twitter and Facebook and stuff, you can really see how you affect fans. Before all that, fans couldn't tell you exactly how they feel, unless they came up after a show, and even then you can't stand there and talk to everybody in the audience. So it's nice to see people tweet me and say, "Your music has changed my life," or "I had my baby to your music," or "I got married to your music." I've heard so many things, and it's amazing to hear people's stories and how you affect their life.

As an artist it's exciting to know that you've made someone's life decision after them listening to your song.

Whether an artist wants to admit that or not.
