Patsy Cline belongs shoulder-to-shoulder with Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald.

I get very frustrated by this term 'genre exercise.' I mean, what exactly is that? Genre is not really relevant when you are writing a song; hopefully you are doing it to explore something, to create something, and I don't agree that any of my albums are genre exercises.

I've always felt writing a song was a bit like going on location. That's true in an almost literal sense. Where you are seeps in somehow.

Elvis Presley and Puccini shall return.

Funny, now I can see, how looks can be deceiving.

The way you look I understand how you were not impressed, but I heard you let that little friend of mine take off your party dress.

Maybe I just never learned my harmony part, because what everybody says sounds odd to them sounds perfectly natural to me.
