I Never Had The Influence Of Any

I Grew Up In The New Zealand Countryside. We Didn't Have Television Until I Was 14, So Sing-alongs Were Our Only Entertainment.

I Really Believe I've Been A Good Person. Not Perfect - Forget About Perfect - But Just Learning By What I Was Taught And Living By My Own Values. I Might Have Stepped On A Few Ants - And A Few Other Things As Well - But I've Never Hurt Anybody.

When I Perform Strauss, It Is As If The Music Fits Me Like A Glove. My Voice Seems To Lie In A Happy Area In This Music, Which Is Lyrical And Passionate At The Same Time.

I Felt That The Studio Recording Process Makes You Stand Still Too Long.

That's Been My Sort Of Aim In Life, To Never Miss An Opportunity.
