There're lots of musicians in my family, too. My mother sings incredibly well. I've got to make a record with my mother's voice on it. She sings a lyric soprano. We do the opposite. I'm a baritone. She's a star singer in her church. She always does her solo.

Grace Jones
I don't like people who hide things.
Grace Jones
Prescription drugs can be even worse than illegal drugs. The only difference is the legality.
