Sometimes people have a difficult time understanding my English.

I am a lover for sure. I love to be loved.

I want to sing simple things for the simple lives of simple people.

When the painting is hanging on your wall for a long time, you don't notice it. You get tired of it, even if it's a Picasso. When the next generation inherits the painting, they sell it. I don't want to be sold.

I listen to the people. That was a big reason for my life, maybe the main reason, I'm singing because I love it when people say to me, 'Thank you.' I thank them. It's a marriage.

People in love look into each other's souls, and it is that feeling that I try to capture when I sing.

I don't believe in frontiers, and I don't believe in races or nationalities.
