I actually started singing those songs six or seven years ago, when I was an opening act for Frank Sinatra.

When I lost the use of my hi-hat and bass drum legs, I became basically a singer. I was a drummer who did a bit of singing, and then I became a singer who did a bit of percussion.

When I'm singing I try not be a singer with a capital S. I just try to get it out so I feel comfortable with it.

I remember when the candle shop burned down. Everyone stood around singing 'Happy Birthday.'

We used to have a main female vocalist. But she had a baby. Now we do the singing ourselves.

When you're doing the traditional musicals, singing songs that are 40 and 50 years old, you realize there's a reason why those musicals are hits. These are amazing songs!

I'm facing upstage, with my back to the audience, and the spotlight comes up on my back as I start singing.

I don't sing country music because I'm not capable of singing other kinds of music; I sing it because I think it's the most beautiful kind of music there is.

I will play my part by singing the spirit into every open heart.

Singing was the big focus and outlet for me.

I was never interested in singing in the church choir or in school. I was more interested in becoming a musician.

My grandmother sang, too, and she was really loud. It was this wild kind of singing. I count her among my influences.

Justin Timberlake is terrific in this film. I told him it's time to stop singing.

The old jazz singers or old blues singers, you always just saw them kind of sitting down and singing. They weren't worried as much about their voice sounding perfect. They would make the song kind of fit their voice.

In so many interviews, they bring up the sexual aspect of the record. I've had some journalists say it sounds like I'm lying down in bed singing with a microphone. It gets so old!
