...You won't get eternal life by just feeling the presence of God in flowers or music.
I did a theatrical musical, Annie Warbucks, when I was 11. We did a tour and we stopped by Los Angeles.
Music is the sweetest language for hearts, kindest prayer for souls, peaceful breeze for minds, and a magical sail for imaginations.
For me there is something primitively soothing about this music, and it went straight to my nervous system, making me feel ten feet tall.
Words make you think. Music makes you feel. A song makes you feel a thought.
My job is to be some sort of music/lyric psychic, to figure out that that's the right song to not fight the lyric.
The blues is a mighty long road. Or it could be a river, one that twists and turns and flows into a sea of limitless musical potential.
I'm 48 now and whatever I get music-wise, I get from my kids and that's it. I don't think I'll ever be hip again!
I was in my late 20s, in the process of shaping my musical outlook and what I wanted it to be about, when I first encountered Woody Guthrie.
Musicals have clearly gotten more physical. You never saw Ethel Merman doing step aerobics.
I think it's important for fans to know that but if I'm doing something that inspires me musically then I think it will inspire someone else too.
I never wanted to go longer than five years off the stage. Not necessarily musicals, but just doing a play or something.
In so many musicals today, the story is moved forward by a song. I don't think we're gonna try to do that.
I think I was affected quite a bit by musical and creative influences that go all the way back to my childhood.
The world is full of poetry. ~ The air is living with its spirit; and the waves dance to the music of its melodies, and sparkle in its brightness.
If you look at 'West Side Story,' a lot of those numbers are actually pretty cutty, but the cuts are always musically motivated.
I enjoy the healing music and touch of love, touching my heart and soul when I give it away.
Smiles are the dance of our soul, with the music of love, to express the beauty of mind, for the happiness of spirit, and for the joy of the world.
I did a lot of musicals when I first started my career, so I can carry a tune well.
I have to go back to my younger days, when I just adored Hollywood musicals.
House music is about love, and lots of hip hop is about hate and intolerance, so in that respect, it's not good at all.
