D'Angelo could sing the phonebook and it would sound good.

I can sing, but it takes an incredible amount of work for me to sound acceptable.

If I can talk, I can sing.

If I'm able to use my voice to do good in the world then I definitely want to do that.

As long as I can sing and hit the notes, I want to do that.

Own every note I sing and sell it. Make a connection to the audience. That's what it comes down to, you know?

I sing the songs that people need to hear.

I know that I have a voice and can use it for good or bad. It's a gift from God.

I use my voice as an instrument.

I could read music and sing all the right notes at the right time. And over time, I literally found my voice, found a way to make sound.
