I'm Quite Shy, So I Hate Seeing

I Started As A Lyrical Singer. But It Was Through The Pop Universe That I Reached International Fame.

I Have Always Felt An Excellent Rapport Ever Since My Very First Concert In Britain At Hampton Court. I Have Always Felt Understood. The British Understand Opera Very Well.

The Fact That I Am Blind Is Not What Defines My Life. It Should Be Of No More Interest Than My Blood Type. People Wonder If There Is A Relationship Between My Lack Of Sight And The Way I Sing. But There's No Connection.

I First Started Playing In Piano Bars For Three Reasons - To Make Money, To Be In The Company Of My Friends - And Also To Hook Up With Young Girls. I Always Knew, Even Before I Played In Piano Bars, About The Effect Of My Voice.

I Do Not Think Anyone Can Ever Do Anything Without The Help And Will Of God.
