Keith Urban's Quotes
- It's what we're torn between, isn't it? Bitching and moaning and complaining about this life, and yet not wanting to give it up for anybody or anything
- I knew I could contribute but people would offer me all sorts and behind my back they just found my quest laughable. It was awful, I'd be crying driving down to the studio some days, just crying, thinking I hate this, I don't want to sit in this room with some guy I've never met before and try and write a song. That's really awkward.
- It was the frustration, not being able to get in my car and drive home to center myself. I was in this surreal world full of nobody I trusted and getting hit on the head constantly. You're thinking `this is the best I can do and it's not working, what more can I do?' It was a cheap escape - well it wasn't cheap - but it was just a pathetic escape mechanism. I couldn't leave so I left by being somewhere else in my head. It wasn't the greatest career move, it distracted me from music. But when your entire life is centred on this one goal, are you really going let the drugs take it away from you?
- I'm grateful when anybody can start to have his or her limited perception of the genre open up a little bit. There's a lot of great music in the country genre that doesn't get heard because people say, 'Well, I don't like country.'
- "It makes me feel a bit naked and vulnerable, but I think that's part of being true to yourself and committing to your music. It's therapeutic too going to the studio everyday is like lying on a therapist couch.
