Quotes by Jason Aldean

“I remember being 4 or 5 years old, sitting in front of a record player with headphones listening to my dads albums,”

“I went and took it to the label, and they loved it, so we put it on the record.”

“I think hes just a great songwriter, and obviously, artist-wise, that speaks for itself.”

“Why are you always on the verge of goodbye, before Ill show you how I really feel inside.”

“I think anytime we can do anything for anyone its good. We just happened to be in a position where we could help out. … Anything that has to do with family and kids, it doesnt take much convincing for me.”

“I got off stage and this guy walked up to me. Hes like this ball of energy. His name was Lawrence Mathis, a manager. He said. I like what youre doing, and Id like to talk to you. What are your plans? What are you doing? I said, You caught me at a bad time, because Im probably moving home in a couple of months. But I met with him that next Monday and told him what was going on. He said, Give me a year to work with you. I said, l dont have a year. Ive got six months, at best. He said, All right. Six months. Five weeks later we got offered a deal from Broken Bow.”

“I do believe that if its meant to be, it will be. Luckily for me, things worked out.”

“Theres many an artist that comes to Nashville in hopes of doing the same thing Im doing right now,”

Youre not going to hear me singing songs about Wall Street because I dont know anything about that.

Shes young and the worlds wide open.

I think its important for artists to work together. Its great for fans to see, like, Ludacris came out to our show in Atlanta and kinda made a surprise appearance there, it shows a mutual respect for what each other does.

But for me, I thought you made a record, you got on a bus, went out and played your shows and made a lot of money. That was the way it was supposed to go down. But theres a lot more to it than that. There are a lot of early mornings, late nights, a lot of traveling, a lot of being away from home, being away from your family.

I dont think I really have any wisdom. Stay out of trouble. Good luck. Stay away from women because they will burn you, haha.

The Night Train has already been a crazy ride for me. We flew around making TV appearances and stadium announcements all over the country, fueled by little more than coffee and adrenaline... so many fans jumped on board with us, and I couldnt be more thankful.

Country music in the mid-90s was a big influence on my career, and I played all the songs that are referenced in 94 back in my club days. Joe Diffie was rocking a sick mullet, and he was hotter than ever... just putting out monster hit after monster hit. It totally takes me back to those days, and it makes me smile every time I hear it.
