Work for the fun of it, and the money will arrive some day.

Now is now, and I live everything one day at a time. The fact that I'm still on the planet and able to still make music is such a miracle.

This business is always changing. If you're going to be a leader, you've got to take chances.

I'm a singer, not a vocal stylist. My breathing is correct; my enunciation is precise. Because of that, I can sing anybody's music. Yet there are stylists whose technical skills are so underdeveloped they can sing only their own songs their own way. They might be remembered for their hits longer than I am. I'll probably be working longer than they are. I can sing whatever the times and the trends demand.

I love the 'Delilah' show. I've been listening to it for years and years. It's incredible. She's always got a song for the right occasion. Many people call in, maybe their spirit it a little down, and she lifts them up. She is really somebody special. She's a lifeline to a lot of people.

They say love will find a way. I know determination will.

You can walk out on me tonight, if you think that it ain't feeling right, but darling, there's no getting over me.
