Whatever I'm doing, I'm in that moment and I'm doing it. The rest of the world's lost. If I'm cooking some food or making soup, I want it to be lovely. If not, what's the point of doing it?

I've never associated myself with other singers, certainly not female singers.

My daughter and stepson are really broad-minded.

I have no technical training and am completely uneducated in music.

I don't get easily bored. I'm not that kind of person.

When I go into the studio, I completely detach. I let my emotions come out.

I look a lot like my father and his mother.
