I Felt That The Studio Recording Process

When I'm Alone At Home, I Really Prefer To Listen To Wagner's Orchestral Music Rather Than Any Vocal Music. I Find It Illuminating Not To Have To Pay Attention To Voices In The Recordings.

I Grew Up In The New Zealand Countryside. We Didn't Have Television Until I Was 14, So Sing-alongs Were Our Only Entertainment.

I Really Believe I've Been A Good Person. Not Perfect - Forget About Perfect - But Just Learning By What I Was Taught And Living By My Own Values. I Might Have Stepped On A Few Ants - And A Few Other Things As Well - But I've Never Hurt Anybody.

The Word 'no' Is A Very Good Word In A Singer's Repertoire.

My Children Are My Children. There's No Doubt About That At All. They're Very Strong Towards Me, Very Protective, And I Towards Them. It Works Both Ways.
