I Have A Lot Of Memories, But

Mostly Singing Was Cathartic, Writing Was Cathartic, Therapeutic. I Don't Think I Had A Goal, Particularly, To Sing Or Put It Out There For Anybody.

I Take A Situation, Analyse It, Break It Down, Put It In The Form I Want It To Be In, And Then I Toss It Away. Let Somebody Else Go Deal With It.

I Was Quite The Spoiled Brat. I Have Quite A Temper, Obviously Inherited From My Father, And I Became Very Good At Ordering Everyone Around. I Was The Princess; The Staff Were Absolutely Terrified Of Me.

People That Were In My Life For A Long Time Turned Sinister And Tried To Control Me, And All Kinds Of Weird Stuff Happened. But There Was No Conscience Involved; That Threw Me More Than Anything.

A Couple Of Months Ago I Hauled My White Ass On Stage Alongside Chaka Khan And Stevie Wonder For Divas Las Vegas, Singing In Front Of A Celebrity Audience. If I Can Hold My Own There, I Can Hold My Own At Top Of The Pops, Trust Me.
