People saw me as just a singer - yeah, a pretty face who could sing - and not more than that.
Watching DBSK and Super Junior brought me up to be a singer.
I've always preferred actors who sing to singers who act in all the shows I've done.
I hate cliché. And when you're a rock singer in 1966, or whatever it was, psychedelic blues, through to the '70s, which we know all about, and the '80s, which was a scramble to hang on in, and the '90s, which was a great time for experimentation... and I'm really still excited. The huge vast diagonals within the music that I've been involved with.
So much can be gained from watching other singers, seeing what they do and what they don't do, seeing how they look when they breathe, how wide they open their mouths for a high note.
When I was very young I wanted to be a professional horseback rider. Then I wanted to be a pop singer. Then I wanted to be a psychiatrist. Then I wanted to be a movie director.
I just always wanted to be a singer. My mom said I was even singing in my cot!
A stand-up comic is judged by every line. Singers get applause at the end of their song no matter how bad they are.
I am absolutely not a roll-on-stage kind of girl! I would be totally freaked out if I didn't warm up, and I don't know how other singers do it.
I enjoyed hearing people do their own songs. I became attracted to singer-songwriters. I became interested in them as people; was curious about what they wanted to say.
I started out to be a person on the street, just like everybody else. I didn't start out to be a singer. But I got sort of swept up in this singing thing, and after I got involved in it it got really important to me if I was good or not.
A singer for me is more like someone who is standing alone with a microphone like Scott Walker, rather than someone who is bashing a plank and is spitting all over a microphone.
It was harder to break into comics than it was to become a singer in a rock band.
Imagine the clouds dripping Dig a hole in your garden to put them in
Amazingly talented singer who sang like an angry angel
I've always felt myself as being a serious singer.
Sometimes, I ask myself how any other singer could substitute the inspiration of god in their songs
You ever heard of a guy named Jeff Buckley? He's one of the best singers I've ever heard.
I don't understand the music but I certainly understand the girl singer!
It's in my genes. My mother was an opera singer. I'm clearly dramatic.
My audience wants to see me beautifully gowned, and I have spared no expense or pains . . . For I feel that the best is none too good for the public that pays to hear a singer.
But I was singing loud, and most singers weren't singing loud.
I think it gets boring (for the audience) for the lead singer to have a guitar hanging on them all the time
The way I see it, all the popular singers are strippers.
I was always a singer and a dancer, and I always wanted to be an actress. For me, it's all just one thing.
