“There's something weird, something phenomenally dreary about Christian singing. The Gospel singers are the only singers that just go crazy, joyous and it's fucking amazing! And it's born out of kidnapping, imprisonment, slavery, murder, all of that - and this joyous singing!”
Eddie Izzard
“A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.”
Maya Angelou
“Music is the purest form of art... therefore true poets, they who are seers, seek to express the universe in terms of music... The singer has everything within him. The notes come out from his very life. They are not materials gathered from outside.”
Rabindranath Tagore
“I would never want to be a member of a group whose symbol was a guy nailed to two pieces of wood.”
George Carlin
“When a singer truly feels and experiences what the music is all about, the words will automatically ring true.”
Monserrat Caballé
“I always wanted to be a singer, it's what I wanted to do since I was little. I'm doing it now and I couldn't be happier.”
Britney Spears
“I don't really have time to sit down and write. But when I think of a melody, I call up my answering machine and sing it, so I won't forget it.”
