Bruce Springsteen gave people faith in rock & roll and in themselves again.
Springsteen - he's the Lord God.
I saw rock n' roll future and its name is Bruce Springsteen.
Bob Seger was a huge inspiration.
I like singing Bruce Springsteen.
I am a big believer in Springsteen, I like his social comment; I like the commitment he puts into his work.
I dare anybody to display a more amazing body of work than Tom Petty.
Oh yeah, alright, take it easy baby, make it last all night. She was an American Girl.
I'm a big fan of Bruce Springsteen and Tom Petty, they're my two favorites.
My music is the chicken soup kind. I want people to get a good feeling in their soul from these songs. Roots rock, heartland rock... whatever you want to call it is OK with me.
When you go back and listen to 30 years of Tom Petty records, they are pretty consistent. I love that.
Some of my biggest commercial musical influences would be people like Merle Haggard, George Jones, of course, Johnny Cash. People that wrote and sang their own stuff, I really admired.
One of my favorite albums in the world is Bruce Springsteen's 'Nebraska.' Each song has this very distinct character who has something profound to say.
I'm the world's biggest Bob Seger fan. He's like my Elvis.
There are albums that I listen to religiously just because I'm such a big fan: any Bruce Springsteen album, or old George Strait albums because the songwriting's so strong.
I love Tom Petty the way a lot of people love him. He's got so many amazing songs, and you know them by heart. They're classics.
