As a singer-songwriter, a solo artist with a guitar, I can only write so many weepie little bedroom songs.
If people have to put labels on me, I'd prefer the first label to be human being, the second label to be pacifist, and the third to be folk singer.
My wife is a very talented singer. She sang a lot on 'Roswell,' and I am embarrassed to sing around her.
I consider myself to be an inept pianist, a bad singer, and a merely competent songwriter. What I do, in my opinion, is by no means extraordinary.
I'm a singer-songwriter. So I play guitar, and I sing. Along the lines of, I guess you could call it, alternative rock.
Everybody would grab a guitar and listen to somebody else and call themselves a folk singer. When they didn't know no more songs, they'd run out of them.
Some of my favourite record and album covers and stuff have all been the singer, and they create a character, and they dress up a little bit.
Being a mother, singer and actress is a definite juggling act, but I don't think I would be comfortable any other way.
As you know, I was a solo singer, something I just got very much used to. Turns out I'm quite enjoying being in a band!
I'm not only a SINGER, I'm an ENTERTAINER... I make people dance away their sorrow and I put smiles on people face
My favorite singer to this day is Nat King Cole. I've tried to emulate his phrasing. It is so absolutely beautiful to listen to his lovely voice.
Fools, their wisdom weak, are their own enemies as they go through life, doing evil that bears bitter fruit.
I think that freshness and that innocence is something that is missing from a lot of female singers. I'm certainly not denying that I'm young, but I'm not fluff.
I always did go against the singer-songwriter form. I think I've always had a lot of storytelling songs.
My mother, Evelyn, was an actress and singer, and my father, Jack, was an actor. My earliest recollection of my father is being taken to see him in a matinee.
Randy Newman seemed like an even worse singer than me. I liked Ray Charles, Levi Stubbs, Jack Jones, Joe Tex, Wilson Pickett.
As a singer, I float around. I'm kind of scatty, bouncing around a lot. I try to adapt to what's going on around me in the song and the arrangement.
Sometimes songwriters and singers forget that. They get a melody in their head and the notes will take precedence, so that they wind up forcing a word onto a melody. It doesn't ring true.
Dorsey played the upright bass and steel guitar, as well as acoustic guitar. Johnny played acoustic guitar and together they were fabulous songwriters and singers.
I was always a singer and a dancer, and I always wanted to be an actress. For me, it's all just one thing.
Army Officer: Mr. Singer. What an appropriate name for a man who can't shut up.
