I cherish the memory of being a friend of Frank Sinatra on a friendship level to the point where we really hung out. We worked in Vegas, wed talk on the phone, and if I wasnt doing anything, Id fly out, and I spent time in Palm Springs at his house - on a level the way friends would be, not with a whole crowd of people.

At long last love has arrived, and I thank God I'm alive. You're just too good to be true, can't take my eyes off of you.

Grease is the word, is the word that you heard, It's got groove, its got feeling.

Becoming successful is a relentless pursuit. Its good that its that way: When it does come, you learn to know how to appreciate it, and know how lucky you are to be doing something that you love so much.

I spent many a summer early morning with the radio very low, half sleeping and half listening.

I always believed a singer should be able to sing any kind of song. If I wanted to sing a Cole Porter song, I should be able to do that. Or Sherry, I should be able to do that. Or a Dylan song.

I'm not doing contemporary songs unless something comes along that really knocks my socks off.
