The urge to sing was so strong one day I performed in a club and it was very successful.

Elvis Presley is my spiritual father, and as you may know Maria Callas is my spiritual mother.

I am singing in an operatic voice for the public, to bring something more to Rock and Roll. Because in a Rock and Roll performance, the singer talks to the public whereas in Opera the singer only talks to a character, inside a story. The public sees this as a picture, I want to transport this picture into the room where the public is.

Sometimes I sing very honestly, really as moving as possible.

People are so nice to each other on holidays...especially at Christmas. Why don't people beat up each other at Christmas? Now that would be fun!

My music is L-O-V-E because it's a gift, and you only give something when you feel it deeply.

The way I look is part of it. It sounds affected but I do see myself as a piece of living art.
