My initial career, really, as a baby, was as a singer.

I sang a lot as a little girl and entered competitions. I loved singing in choirs, but it was as I got older that I really found my voice.

I consider myself as a singer first, but something that really helped me come into my own is that there's not a separation between me singing and me playing the guitar. The two fed off the other.

My mother was a singer, and both of her sisters were singers. There was always music around.

Being the youngest, I was a bit of a daddy's girl and sought attention from an early age by singing. I don't know where I got my voice, but ours was always a musical house.

I've never associated myself with other singers, certainly not female singers.

I have sung, but I haven't sung in any way that I would ever call myself 'a singer.'

I always wanted to sing, as a child.

My mother was the first singer I had contact with. She sang constantly to us around the house, in church.

So don't think in reality I am a singer, I think I am a human being that has sung always all her life, and has learned a little to sing, and has found herself in the middle of a career.
