You can be great only if it is your destiny.

I started as a lyrical singer. But it was through the pop universe that I reached international fame.

I change the language with which I use my voice. In opera, I know I have an orchestra behind me; I have to communicate to people very far from me.

In essence, I set myself the objective of doing what I feel is right without having any ambition.

Even in the most beautiful music, there are some silences, which are there so we can witness the importance of silence. Silence is more important than ever, as life today is full of noise. We speak a lot about environmental pollution but not enough about noise pollution.

In singing, you cannot 'cheat' if you want to give emotions to those who are listening. You must have something to tell.

All that counts in life is intention.
