I mean, if you asked me what I’m going to be doing when I’m 85, I’d make a quick picture in my mind and, well, I’ll be singing.
Singing is a trick to get people to listen to music for longer than they would ordinarily.
I went to Canada and played in this tiny bar where the windows were steaming up and everybody was so animated and singing along right there at the foot of the stage, looking up, and I got my mojo back .
What's a farmer's market without some guy singing Here Comes The Sun in a way that makes you wish the sun would stop coming up.
I'm probably more into a more spacious, even meditative, quiet delivery of singing.
I used to struggle a little bit with the idea of how to separate singing from acting and entertaining.
I like singing all songs, really, but I find that writing social commentary comes naturally.
I used to prefer rapping over singing, but now I'm a little 50/50 about it. I like doing both, a lot - equally.
I would love to sing with Ella Fitzgerald.
A friend of mine's sister was on a TV show here in Toronto, a popular show. I don't know I guess it must be some Canadian come line. Well Mr. Dressup a friend's sister was on Mr. Dressup and I just never understood - knew that I could know someone in the flesh that was on the TV. It was just a bizarre thing for me. I grew up drinking Coca Cola, singing to Michael Jackson and the '80s a pretty stand by me life.
I've been singing my whole life and I've always wanted to be able to pursue a music career.
I've been singing ever since I was little, but I didn't start taking it seriously until I was about 15 or 16.
I grew up singing. My mother was a music teacher.
What dancing has helped me with is blocking; it makes me comfortable with my body. You know how to hit your mark, you know how to embody a swagger. But sitting down and looking across the table at another actor and being able to go to battle on screen is nothing to do with singing or dancing.
Occasionally I play the music for my mother when she demands to hear it and she always just says, 'Who is that singing? I don't like the singing.' And then she says 'Who's doing all that bumpety-bump noise?' It's all noise backing up horrible singing as far as she's concerned. She's not a show-biz mother.
I really idolize everything my sisters do,so I went into singing contests and won also. That's how I really got into singing.

Music's always been a big part of my life, but it kind of all happened in one big ball of storytelling rather than splitting acting and singing apart.
North Korea is a necrocracy, or a mauselocracy or a thanatocracy in which the one [Kim Il-sung] is diffused into being with the other [Kim Jong Il], and where both of them are said to have had miraculous births attended by miraculous phenomena such as, for example, birds singing in Korean, when they were born.
For a while, I couldn't decide whether or not I should pursue singing in the opera or acting. And I'm glad that I chose the latter because I wasn't a very good singer.

Sometimes, especially in the last six months, I still feel like going to the window and singing out all my troubles.
I still have my eyes on the prize: I want to be that old lady onstage shaking her hips and singing her greatest hits.
You know what, I'm very interested in acting, but right now I'm busy promoting my album and going on tour because that's my first love, but I'm very interested in doing some parts that may come my way. I've been offered a few movie parts so far, but I have to really concentrate on singing. But it's something I'm interested in doing eventually. I haven't been offered a part that truly inspires me to take time off, though.
Cartooning isn't really drawing, any more than talking is singing... The possible vocabulary of comics is by definition unlimited, the tactility of an experience told in pictures outside the boundaries of words, and the rhythm of how these drawings 'feel' when read is where the real art resides.
