I know what I'm missing. I know what I have to work on. Coloratura. And I sing sharp sometimes. It happens when I'm nervous.
I believe that anyone can be what they want to be; it just comes down to hard work.
If you had a record company believing in you enough to cut an album then you had better have the ability to work the album on the road.
Surround yourself with people you can always learn something from. Always work with people that are better at their craft than you are.
Sandy fidgeted with his pen. “There’s something I didn’t write down. Maybe I shouldn’t tell you, you being a judge and all, but, well, Jake Wexler… he’s a bookie.” No, he should not have told her. “A small-time operator, I’m sure, M...
'Friday' is about hanging out with friends, having fun. I felt like it was my personality in that song.
I've thought about doing other dramatic roles besides westerns, but I grew up in the West and I know the West.

I realized that I didn't want to do anything else. Plus, I realized I was good, and, most importantly, I actually loved to sing on stage.

Any song I have to work on longer than a day, I just leave it. It's not gonna work. Everything that's good is really instant.
The Jews don't like Farrakhan, so they call me Hitler. Well, that's a good name. Hitler was a very great man.
The social networking sites are such good way to keep in touch with your fans, it's quick and simple and it keeps your fans interested in what you're doing.
