I've always wanted to sing, just as I've always known that one day I would have my own niche in the annals of song. It was a feeling I had.

To sing is to bring to life; impossible if the words are mediocre, however good the music.

As far as I'm concerned, love means fighting, big fat lies, and a couple of slaps across the face.

I don't want to die an old lady.

Performers and their public should never meet. Once the curtain comes down, the performer should fly away like a magician's dove.

People say that I could sing the phone book and make it sound good.

Singing is a way of escaping. It's another world. I'm no longer on earth.
