More quotes by Reba McEntire
I grew up in southeastern Oklahoma on a working cattle ranch, and it was always very romantic to me: The West, the cowboy, the Western way of life.
Reba McEntire
Every song that has been a hit for me has been honest and truthful. I have to believe that same formula will work on this (television) show. It has to be believable and honest.
Reba McEntire
And I was mischievous. I was always into something. So when I got good attention from the singing, I knew that was probably where I needed to land.
Reba McEntire
My mama is my best friend. We have fun, we can talk about anything, she always is on my side but really quick to tell me when I'm wrong. That's a true friend. She's loyal, smart, witty and intelligent. She loves family and loves to travel. All the things I love!
Reba McEntire
A good song has to have a great melody, and the lyrics have to touch my heart. Now, if it's just a little toe-tapper, got to make me feel good somehow or another, or when I sing it I can't make you feel good.
Reba McEntire
I don’t think there's ever been a point in my career where I've said, 'I've made it.' What does that mean, 'I've made it?' Made it to what? If you say, 'I've made it.' then are you finished? I don't want to be finished. I don't want to quit.
Reba McEntire
I use all my skills that I can muster up, but the fun thing is that I find some untapped skills every once in a while. I get that from my daddy.
Reba McEntire
When you're a very ambitious person, the things that are disappointing are when other people around you aren't as enthusiastic.
Reba McEntire
My grandma was a huge believer, very spiritual, probably the most spiritual person I've ever known in my life.
Reba McEntire
Being sexy is kind of funny to me.
Reba McEntire
Without God, I don't see how folks cope.
Reba McEntire
Be different, stand out, and work your butt off.
Reba McEntire
I totally love to act. I don't care if it's a musical, a comedy. I just like to work and interact with other people.
Reba McEntire
Make sure you're always giving, way more than you're taking
Reba McEntire
But I like to listen to demos. I like to hear the finished product. It's like listening to a song - I mean, a story. If you're going to sit here and tell me a story, I just like to listen. I don't want to make them up.
Reba McEntire
That's what is so great about being able to record a 13-song album. You can do a very eclectic group of songs. You do have some almost pop songs in there, but you do have your traditional country, story songs. You have your ballads, your happy songs, your sad songs, your love songs, and your feisty songs.
Reba McEntire
It's funny how many people will come to Vegas to see your show where they might not come out to see you unless you come to their hometown.
Reba McEntire
Waiting makes me restless. When I'm ready, I'm ready.
Reba McEntire
But I think a song that is really emotionally packed, with a great melody that just will soar, that's the keeper.
Reba McEntire
If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose, If I'm not that arrow to the heart of you, If you don't get drunk on my kiss, If you think you can do better than this then I guess we're done. Let's not drag this on, Consider me gone.
Reba McEntire
