I never took any kind of vocal lessons or teachings of how to - I never even took piano lessons. And a voice just came to me and said, go play the piano in the church.

My fans have written me such kind emails. My management at Daptone helped me heal, too. I'm in a good place.

Singing is my life. And when I can do that, that's when I'm free. That's when I'm at my happiest, I'm at my most.

I know for one thing that alcohol will have no more part in my life.

I'm grateful to be alive, because I really did not think I was going to be alive, onstage performing songs.

Everything I've done and everything I've gained in my life has been with my music.

I've got to find local farmers and get natural foods.
