I have to own something before I can say it, and I have to own it before I can sing it as well, emotionally. I only enjoy acting and singing if I am believing what I am doing. ↗

I hate straight singing. I have to change a tune to my own way of doing it. That's all I know. ↗

I didn't have to win, and winning wasn't important to me. Being world champion wasn't important to me. What was important to me was entertaining the audience, and whether that meant winning, losing, singing, or whatever it was on the live show we were doing every week, which was awesome, I was game for it. ↗

For me, singing is the most natural thing in the world. I've grown up with it and I know I've got that gift. ↗

I had no desire to become a singer until I heard Billie Holiday. The first time I heard her on a record, it was a revelation. She sounded like a woman singing about herself. ↗

A real active music set, based and really concentrated on what the music's all about. That's what I'm all about - singing and a really good strong music set. ↗

There was a certain feeling I developed as a young person for black people. Somehow they were able to get pleasure out of things that I couldn't see them enjoying. I heard them sing a lot, and I didn't hear white folks going down the cotton rows singing that much. ↗
