I wanted to be the sassy voice of reason. I was also going through a tough breakup after five years in my first real relationship. At the same time, my career was starting to take off. So Hero was part breakup record, part me finding my independence. Over the next few years, I started to become more of a boss and a sort of CEO for myself, putting my band and crew on salary, giving them health insurance, becoming the head of this machine. I also fell in love. I started to open up more to my fans. Q2: GIRL meditates on everything from craving sex and being in love to moments of yearning and the more emotional nuances of being a woman.

Country music isn't for everybody. But the current pop-country genre that is so popular right now thanks to Taylor Swift is proving to have a wider appeal than the traditional honky tonk country sound of the past. Country music will always have its place, and there are always new stars stepping into the spotlight to take the place of classic stars like Shania Twain , Reba McEntire , and Dolly Parton. Success in the music business is not only about having catchy songs. It is about stage presence, and a certain sex appeal. Ask most guys you know and they'll say they used to hate country, until they saw Taylor Swift. But the women of country music have just as much sex appeal.
