It's nice to look good, but the most important thing is to be you.

There were wonderful moments when I was singing for the first time in the Olympia Theatre and I was pregnant with my son, which was very, very strange for a singer.

The Berlin Wall go down, that was the most wonderful thing that could happen, absolutely. I celebrated with everybody in Berlin that day when the Wall was down.

All children are my children.

Every time I would open my mouth to sing, everybody was paying attention to me. It became a habit.

For my convalescence, I had to exercise my voice only with vowels. It is a medical rule after a long loss of voice.

I do believe that if you haven't learnt about sadness, you cannot appreciate happiness.
