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.

More quotes by Reba McEntire
I've got CDs in my car, listening all the time for that next song, because everybody's looking.
Reba McEntire
And so we were asleep there in San Diego. And our pilot called us. And his brother was on one of the other planes. And when he was leaving the airport, he saw in his rear view mirror that there was an explosion.
Reba McEntire
I think it's a wonderful time for a woman.
Reba McEntire
I always like story songs, Dolly Parton, Tom T. Hall, Mel Tillis, Red Stegall, when they'd do their story songs. I was totally enthralled.
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
Finding a good bus driver can be as important as finding a good musician.
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
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
Never have doubted it, even when the plane crash happened. I wasn't mad at God. I just knew that there was a reason that I didn't know about why it happened.
Reba McEntire
I always wanted to be an actress. I always wanted to be a movie star.
Reba McEntire
The upside to anger? Getting it out of your system. You got to express your anger. Then you have room for more positive things. If I hold something in a long time, and then I speak it, it's amazing how the light shines so much brighter.
Reba McEntire
If dreams give you power, then I'm strong enough to walk through my heart till you love me.
Reba McEntire
If you're happy, you've got the Lord on your side.
Reba McEntire
I've never turned my back on country music.
Reba McEntire
I had lots of breaks. I guess the one that got my foot in the door was singing the National Anthem at the National Finals Rodeo in Oklahoma City in '74.
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
When you're a very ambitious person, the things that are disappointing are when other people around you aren't as enthusiastic.
Reba McEntire
There's a lot of power in putting it out in the universe. It's telling your subconscious mind, 'This is what's gonna happen.'
Reba McEntire
Growing up is not being so dead-set on making everybody happy.
Reba McEntire
Without God, I don't see how folks cope.
