I love Tina Turner. I'm one of Tina Turner's biggest fans. Tina Turner was a big influence on me to become a singer. A role model and in a way she gave me back my confidence in choosing my material.
I wish I could sing. I don't technically have a terrible voice, but it's certainly not as good as most of my friends. Whenever I hear myself on a record, it just reminds me I'm not a very good singer.
I feel comfortable singing in the great cathedrals of the world because I spent so much time as a child singing in church. And it isn't very different. Of course, nothing looks quite like Notre Dame de Paris.
I make sure I sing a cappella to let people know I can sing.
I can't sing very well but I'd like to try.
I'm slowly working up the courage to sing in front of other people, but I can carry a tune. I do some mean karaoke.
I couldn't even sing when I started.
You know I don't have any gimmicks really. I don't have any silly things that I say; I don't know, I guess I'm just going to have a really hot dress and a nice pair of shoes and just go out there and look fabulous and try to sing my best.
I am comfortable with anything I sing: jazz, gospel, classical. It doesn't matter. I can do it all.
I didn't have to express myself to anybody; I would just sing. And most of the times, when I initially used to sing, I used to get scared of my own voice.
I never thought of myself as a good singer.
I believe I can sing anything.
I don't even sing in front of really close friends. It's embarrassing. I don't really sing when I'm alone, either. I just hum enjoyably.
A popular song is one that makes us all think we can sing.
I'd rather not sing than sing quiet.
I don't want anything to get in the way of me and my singing. I want my mind as clear as possible.
When you're singing, you're using extra muscles, and it requires a lot of exercise and breathing. You can't do that if you're a sissy. If I have any fitness advice for people, I'd tell them to sing more. It's good therapy, too.
I'm not the guy that thinks I'm a perfect singer.
I'm also taking singing classes as well, not that I ever plan to sing in public in my entire life. I actually have a phobia of singing, so I decided to take some singing lessons to help me get away from the phobia.
Every time I would open my mouth to sing, everybody was paying attention to me. It became a habit.
I never saw myself as a singer; I never really thought I had the voice for it.
I sang a lot as a little girl and entered competitions. I loved singing in choirs, but it was as I got older that I really found my voice.
I wasn't even singing when we first started Lion Babe, so my voice has only gotten stronger.
I was always so scared to sing in front of people. That was kind of my weird thing.
There's lots of singers that I love; I don't know if I used any of them as role models. Maybe I would have been a better singer when I started if I had.
