I left the table where there were important people and had lunch with my husband and a few friends. The reception was organised in my honour, so it was rather amusing.

When I started to work with UNICEF, it was a new way of giving some love and care to the world.

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.

I have been so lucky to receive so much love from those who enjoy my music, that I feel I have to give as much of it as I can back to children.

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.

When I was singing, everybody liked me.
