Getting comments like that from even the young people at the shows who probably aren't singers, the girls who just tell me that I'm an inspiration to them, for one reason or another.

I have eighteen titles in the German language. I had a number one song in 1965.

It seems like the good things that have happened in my career are things that you don't try to plan and push, and make it happen, it just seems to happen.

And it wasn't until '84 when I was first asked to come to Sweden and do an album and concert tour.

Well, I didn't really have a plan. I just wanted a hit.

I learned so much about recording and about singing on records from Ken Nelson.

I never kissed a bear, I've never kissed a goon, but I can shake a chicken in the middle of a room.
