The Beatles were raw musically, but I think they really had something.
From Brenda Lee
I was nuts about Elvis, like every girl in America.
The amazing thing is that I'm sane. I'm not bitter. I'm not drugged out. I'm not broke. I'm still married to the same guy. My children don't hate me.
I didn't really have an agenda for my talent. I just wanted to be able to sing.
I only wish Chet Atkins could be here for this joyous occasion.
John Lennon was very irreverent and very intelligent.
I always felt that I was one of the women who helped lay the foundation for rock and roll. But I'd always been overlooked by the Hall of Fame.
I believe I became one of the first singers to be launched via television exposure. I guess I was a new kind of musical stylist for a new kind of media.
The word matters in country music, and it always has. And everybody had lived those words in country songs.
I've always gone to see all kinds of shows and stole what I could, as we all do. We see an artist and hear a song and think, 'I bet I could sing that song. I'll put that in my show.'
