I Like Music To Soothe Me.

I've Been In A Serious Conversation With One Of My Children, And A Fan Has Come Up. I've Been In A Public Bathroom And Had The Hand Come Under The Stall With A Paper And Pen. That Sort Of Thing Anybody Can Live Without.

If You Had Told Me When I Was 18 That I Wouldn't Have Made It Until I Was 29, I Would Have Said, Forget It.

I Was Very Strongly Influenced By Women's Magazines And I Really Believed Tha A Woman Could Not Be Married And Raise A Family And Have A Successful Career All At The Same Time.

My Audience Is The Baby-boomers, The Bulk Of The Population. This Is Also A Group That Is Being Ignored By Most Record Companies Because They're Not The Top 40 Hit Singles Market. They Forget These People Still Listen To Music.

It Took So Long To Make It In America. The Year I Arrived Was A Bad Year For Women Singers, The Record Company Told Me. So I Starved. I Lived In A Hotel So Dreadful I Can't Even Talk About It.
