I wanted to be a lead singer in a band. I can't sing. I'm almost tone deaf. I still play. Next life, rock'n'roll for sure.
If I had planned to be a singer, I would have got trained. In fact, I was more into theatre and plays while growing up.
Playback singing has always been my dream.
I used to put all my doll babies on my bed with their hands up and I would do full shows for them. I'd even do the screaming and clapping. I was bugging to be a singer.
I've always wanted to sing, just as I've always known that one day I would have my own niche in the annals of song. It was a feeling I had.
I was in choir in school. I kind of just did it. I already knew I wanted to sing. My music program in my school wasn't really great - people didn't really want to be part of the choir, they didn't want to do the plays and stuff like that. It definitely wasn't the cool thing to do.
After I moved with my mother to St. Louis, my older sister and I went to see Ike Turner, who was the hottest then. His music charged me. I was never attracted to him, but I wanted to sing with his band.
I think I was super young when I decided I wanted to be in music and be a singer.
I was gonna write songs, I was gonna be a star and a singer and I never thought of doing anything else.
I've always wanted to be a singer, ever since I was a child.
I've always wanted to be a voice actor. Well I think at first I wanted to be a singer. Then in middle school I auditioned for a musical and I only really cared because I wanted to sing in it. I had to act as well as part of the audition and that was the first time I ever really acted, and I was like 'Oh hey, this is fun, I like doing this.'
I wish I could be a professional singer.
I grew up in Barranquila, Colombia, and I spent most of my childhood dreaming about becoming a singer.
I saw a concert with Nena singing '99 Red Balloons' on TV and I said, 'I will also go onstage and sing.'
I can't sing. Definitely no ambition in that area.
There were a couple of years when I wanted to be a football player, but I really always wanted to be a singer.
It would be neat to sing with Roger Miller.
By the time I was 14, I had seen only three Tamil films - 'Anjali,' 'Bombay,' and 'Puthiya Mugam.' And I loved the music in the films. When I found out Rahman sir was the man behind the music, I made up my mind that I wanted to sing for him.
That's what we all hope and dream to do, when we stand in front of the mirror with our Goody comb and sing into it, is to have a bunch of songs that have touched people so much that they want to hear 'em every night.
I was probably four when I knew that I wanted to be a singer.
None of my family are musicians, but there was a lot of classic rock and country going on. I always wanted to sing. As soon as I expressed an interest my mom was super supportive of me.
As a little kid, I used to lock myself in my room and put on my Whitney Houston CD's and pretend to be her and try and hit every single note that she hit. I used to dream that one day that would be me.
I want to be able to sing like Whitney Houston did.
I always wanted to sing English songs, ever since I was, like, 10 or 12 years old.
I used to want to be a backup singer. Not a lead singer, because I really can't sing.
