As I go back and listen, the other girls weren't singing quite like I was.

And in singing, what my voice lacked in quality it made up for in volume.

I was a loud child, and if my mother sang to me, I would be quiet.

I was putting forward too much of myself when I was singing.

I was singing before I could talk.

I first started to sing when I started to talk. As soon as I could form words and sounds together, I was singing.

When I started singing, I couldn't be shut up.

I didn't sing, but I did play the drums.

I never tried to sing like anybody else, fortunately I didn't sound like anybody else. It just happened.

The louder I sang, the more it brought out the basic quality of the voice.
