I know I'm no glamour girl, and it's not easy for me to get up in front of a crowd of people. It used to bother me a lot, but now I've got it figured out that God gave me this talent to use, so I just stand there and sing.

When I'm on stage I feel at home

Just don't give up trying to do what you really want to do.

I guess what everyone wants more than anything else is to be loved. And to know that you loved me for my singing is too much for me. Forgive me if I don't have all the words. Maybe I can sing it and you'll understand.

Just don't give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don't think you can go wrong.

Music is the universal language ... it brings people closer together.

She is amazingly creative, bringing so much more to a song than just a singer. She is a first-class musician and the most gracious person in the world.
