I plan to make records as long as people wanna keep listening to them.
When I was growing up, I always knew that if I ever got anything, I was going to give back as much as I can. I learned that all you have to be willing to do is give your time.
You always wanna make the best record you ever made, and if I feel like I didn't do that, I wouldn't put it out.
When I was in high school, I read all of Neil Simon's plays.
We raised almost 2 million dollars at the last golf tournament that can be used for minority scholarships and Junior Golf programs. The payoff for the work we do is so much more valuable than the work we actually do for it.
I've known Tiger since he was 18. Tiger is a great guy. I am so happy for him right now.
I just wanted to go out and make a record that I've always wanted to make since I was a kid.
Remember the Stax label and how if you liked one record, you liked all the others as well? You don't talk to a lot of people who tell you how much they love their record label. I don't care how many records they sell.
It was important to me to find a label that wouldn't back out after a first single. Everyone's so used to hearing me with Hootie, they're going to be skeptical.
I'm a kid who grew up in an all African-American neighborhood and got into schools and aspired to just be me, and didn't worry about labels or anything. Just wanted to be a success at what I did.
I think people who go out and tell you how much they're gonna change things are the people who end up being just another whatever. I'm never trying to change anything. That's not for me.
My family lives a pretty normal life.
I work hard to let my wife know how much I love her. I try to do that every day.
It's hard to be married to me, and it was a lot harder when I was younger!
Arnold Palmer is my favorite, just getting to know him and all of the film on him and his game. He was the first real superstar in golf. You had Bobby Jones and all of those guys, but Arnold Palmer was bigger than life.
The thing that really gets me about the game is I've never played two rounds that were anywhere close to being the same - ever. Even with the same golf course and setup, nothing is ever the same. I love that about golf.
Romantic stuff is not something I really remember.
Golf is the greatest but most maddening sport there is.
I used to love watching 'Hee Haw' on TV when I was a kid. My brothers and sisters weren't happy about it, but I just loved the music.
It's about the music, not the color of the person playing the music.
