If the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall. Or the mountain should crumble to the sea. I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear, just as long as you stand by me.

It's a different thing when you go into a studio and you record with the intent of going somewhere and you're marketing yourself for that direction.

I don't care what studio I'm in, I don't care what producers is producing it and I don't care what song it is because they taught me those things I feel so protected wherever I go as far as music.

If there's anything about the business that I love and that I'm extremely happy about, is that my career started at that time and that I met some of the greatest entertainers at that time and some are still here.

A singer has got a different attitude, they're they're so whacked out they don't know what they're doing half the time. Singers, they don't, they're spoiled too.

I still perform it in all my shows. I'll do it as long as I'm breathing. I'm so proud it has stood the test of time.

I do like what Alicia Keys and John Legend are doing. With their music, you keep your clothes on.
