Melissa Etheridge
I tell people that anything that could ever happen to you on stage has happened to me. My clothes have fallen off. I've fallen off the stage. I've gotten sick - anything.
Melissa Etheridge

Melissa Etheridge

Melissa Etheridge
Be strong, believe in who you are be strong, believe in what you feel.
Melissa Etheridge
I've sold my soul for freedom. It's lonely but it's sweet.
Melissa Etheridge
I'm only lonely when I'm driving in my car. I'm only lonely after dark. I'm only lonely when I watch my TV. I'm only lonely occasionally.
Melissa Etheridge

Melissa Etheridge
I've worked since I was 11 years old, playing music and following the dream, and shaking and moving and doing it. And then, you have cancer and it was like 'Ooooohh.' It was like a big eraser. It was the only thing in my life that had ever made me just stop.
Melissa Etheridge
I'm one of those people that will say, 'My cancer was a gift.'
