My favorite diva is Dame Shirley Bassey from the U.K. I just love that every song she sings becomes crazy and intense with feeling. That's how I feel in my daily life.
Singing from the heart is my only goal.
I've always been very emotional when I sing.
Janis Joplin didn't just sing a song, she took it over. She swallowed it whole, then sent it back through her gut and her heart.
When I perform Strauss, it is as if the music fits me like a glove. My voice seems to lie in a happy area in this music, which is lyrical and passionate at the same time.
One who sings with his tongue on fire, gargles in the rat race choir.
Tell the truth. Sing with passion. Work with laughter. Love with heart.
The reason my voice is sounding more passionate is because I'm singing directly from the heart.
