Honey, if you've had your eye on a piece of talent and that chick down the road has been getting all the action, then you know what you gotta do... Try A Little Bit Harder.

You can destroy your now by worrying about tomorrow.

I talk to the audience, look into their eyes. I need them and they need me.

My business is to enjoy and have fun. And why not, if in the end everything will end, right?

They asked me, How did you learn to sing the blues like that? How did you learn to sing that heavy? I just opened my mouth and that's what I sounded like. You can't make up something that you don't feel. I didn't make it up. I just opened my mouth and it existed.

I can't talk about my singing; I'm inside it. How can you describe something you're inside of?

You better not compromise yourself, it's all you've got.
