#singer

Every time I talk about this, I say: when the singer is singing, he must be respected, you must be able to hear what he's saying. You can't put a trombone and a drum up there, and a microphone on the drum, microphones on everybody. You can't hear what he's saying. ↗

I think every singer should be able to jump in for a singer who has been sick, for instance, and learn an opera in two days. I know people who can do it. ↗

People think top singers are overpaid, but opera houses have a top fee, which is a good thing. Of course concerts are different- everyone wants to make as much money as possible. ↗

The way I see it, all the popular singers are strippers. ↗
