If you think you're hearing something and you can't think what it is. If you feel a quiet longing lift your heart into the wind. There you'll find my kindred spirit. There you'll meet me as a friend. It is just a kindred spirit and a song to let you in.

You know, I do speak the Queens English. It's just the wrong Queens that's all. It's over the 59th Street Bridge. It's not over the Atlantic Ocean.

There's ageism in everything. I don't give a hoot. It isn't what other people think it's what you think. But it's hard to come to terms with getting older. I admire people like Vivienne Westwood.

Somebody did complain to me and tell me that my clothes were so loud they couldn't hear me sing.
