I Only Notice The Clothes I'm Wearing.

Somewhere Out There, Beneath The Pale Moonlight, Someone's Thinking Of Me And Loving Me Tonight.

I Think If The United States Gave Anything To Culture At Large In The 20th Century, The Most Important Contribution Made Was The Popular Song.

I Grew Up Singing Mexican Music, And That's Based On Indigenous Mexican Rhythms. Mexican Music Also Has An Overlay Of West African Music, Based On Huapango Drums, And It's Kind Of Like A 6/8 Time Signature, But It Really Is A Very Syncopated 6/8. And That's How I Attack Vocals.

When You Sing The Same Song Over And Over And Over Again, It Stops Meaning What It Originally Meant To You. It Starts Sounding Like White Noise, Or My Washing Machine.

I Feel Sorry For A Culture That Depends Too Much On Delegating Its Musical Expression To Professionals. It Is Fine To Have Heroes, But We Should Do Our Own Singing First, Even If It Is Never Heard Beyond The Shower Curtain.
