There's a category for me. I like to be referred to as a good singer of good songs in good taste.

What was the competition? Well, I remember this Puerto Rican who came out in a short skirt and a gun.

I am not a special person. I am a regular person who does special things.

Judy Garland was the singer I most wanted to sound like then, not to copy, but to get some of her soul and purity. A wonderful young voice.

My dream is to do whatever I want without any interference from the record company.

They always ask me the same questions. Where was I born? When did I start singing? Who have I worked with? I don't understand why they can't just talk to me without all that question bit.
