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.

Many composers today don't know what the human throat is.

I think there's always been singers like that and i've done my fair share of cheese as well.

The most famous rumor for me is that I had throat cancer. I never had throat cancer... I don't know why that started... The way I sing, probably.

Sometimes a role might be difficult on my throat.

You'd have a good voice, if it ever came out of your throat.

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've had problems with my throat over the years, playing with loud bands for years, and I've had bruised vocal chords and nodules.

Any artist who goes to Las Vegas is an idiot as far as I am concerned. Whoever goes to Las Vegas can stay in Las Vegas.
