God Gave Me A Voice To Sing

When I Heard Aretha, I Could Feel Her Emotional Delivery So Clearly. It Came From Down Deep Within. That's What I Wanted To Do.

I Wanted To Be A Teacher. I Love Children, So I Wanted To Deal With Children. Then I Wanted To Be A Veterinarian. But By The Age Of Ten Or Eleven, When I Opened My Mouth And Said, 'oh, God, What's This?' I Kind Of Knew Teaching And Being A Veterinarian Were Gonna Have To Wait.

No, I'm Not A Drug Addict, And Neither Is My Husband. If That Were So, You'd Get A Lot Less Work Out Of Me. It Would Show In The Performances And In The Work.

I Can Tell You That I Am Not Self-destructive. I'm Not A Person Who Wants To Die. I'm A Person Who Has Life, Who Wants To Live. And I Always Have. And I Wouldn't Mistake It For Anything Else Other Than That.

You Get That Love From The People. It Lets Me Know That All The Madness I Go Through, All The Stuff That The Business Has To Offer With All Its Madness; It Makes It Worthwhile.
