The music itself could never take the place of my own passion in life.

Some singers want the audience to love them. I love the audience.

If I could live my life over again, there is one thing I would change. I would want to be able to eat less.

I am a tenor buff. I hear myself.

I want to be famous everywhere.

People have a right to criticize.

I am a very simple person. In spite of all that has happened to me, I have tried to remain the simple person I started out.
