But the throat just kind of falls into line once you realize in your head what it is. You got to remember the musicality of a character you're going to do.

I think that people who have Vegas throat are people who sing from their throats only.

My musical knowledge is so bad it's embarrassing. When composers discuss music with someone as primitive as myself, they have to talk about it in terms of senses and emotion, rather than keys and tempo.

I'm not an intellectual composer.

Music is the voice that tells us that the human race is greater than it knows.

Composers are the only people who can hear good music above bad sounds.

The voice is an instrument that you really must take time to develop. It's like a good red wine Give it time.

The human voice is the most beautiful instrument of all, but it is the most difficult to play.

As a singer, you can't hear what's coming out of your throat; you're only hearing it from the inside, so you need a trusted person who knows how your voice works. It's like a car. You take it to the same mechanic because they know it inside out, and every time you get it back, it works fantastic.

As musicians, and as people who sell material for people to hear and absorb, it's important that we use that voice wisely.
