When you sing a song the way I sing it, you have to use your whole body. It's almost like working out.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I sing full-on I use my whole body. I open my throat and let it fly out.
It's like a runner or a swimmer training all the time. I sing every day.
Someone told me that you could learn to sing, and that there are muscles that if you build, you will sing.
You have to keep fit being a singer - that's part of the job. You can't do it unless you have incredible stamina.
Or if I have my head in the results, I can't work with what I have, because I'm trying to force something to happen. And with singing, any time you force it, you tighten up. If you tighten up, you're screwed, nothing will work.
When I was a model, everybody was scrutinising me and I felt I had to go to the gym because my figure had to be fantastic. Now that I'm a singer, I've got a different kind of body - it's more athletic.
And singing is a physical thing - your vocal cords are these muscles.
Sometimes you sing songs about the way you want to feel more than the way you actually do feel.
I just sing. You have to use it.
If you don't ever stop singing, your voice stays in shape. It's like the marathon runner. You've got to run, run, run to stay in shape.
