I've been getting into Nick Drake lately, the folk singer. Sad, gorgeous stuff.

My mother was an amateur singer, my father was an amateur drunk.
Ozzy Osbourne

With few exceptions, every major pop singer in the US during her generation has been touched in some way by her genius. It is Billie Holiday who was, and still remains, the greatest single musical influence on me. Lady Day is unquestionably the most important influence on American popular singing in the last twenty years.
Frank Sinatra

So many of these comics are just frustrated singers or actors - they want to get a gig doing a sitcom. It's paint-by-the-numbers comedy, lame joke-telling. They're drawn to it as a career move.
Sam Kinison

I knew that I wanted to be a singer/songwriter when I was much younger and, um, I've been able to, you know, to realize that dream and I'm very pleased with that...I want to branch out. I want to write. I write poetry...Music is an extraordinary vehicle for expressing emotion-very powerful emotions.
Annie Lennox
Image
In my lifetime, there have been three vocal miracles: Caruso, Ruffo and Ponselle. Apart from these there have been several wonderful singers.
Tullio Serafin

If I hadn't been a singer, I might have been a photographer or an artist. But it's singing I love. I sing all the time, and I feel really good that I've expressed myself.
Annie Lennox

First of all, ladies and gentlemen, you must forget that you are singers.
Claude Debussy

Jazz radio is not very friendly to pop singers who decide to make a jazz record. But a lot of people have been. A lot of the people I've talked to like the record.
Rita Coolidge
Image
I never was strutting through the hallways like, Yeah, I'm a singer/songwriter. That's never a cool thing to do - to be the brooding guy.
Tyler Hilton

Rock 'n' roll is meant to entertain. Hippie folk singers are supposed to be singing about leftist views, but I don't think rock 'n' roll was ever that way. I don't remember the early rock 'n' rollers ever expressing any political views.
Johnny Ramone

I'm very fond of the Talent series, and also the Crystal Singer trio.
Anne McCaffrey

Pieta Brown is a great singer/songwriter who possesses major star power magnetism.
Don Was

It seems like people get afraid of a certain music if they can't pigeonhole it to their satisfaction... Good music is good music, and that should be enough for anybody.
Bradley Nowell

A man told me that for a woman, I was very opinionated. I said, 'for a man you're kind of ignorant'.
Anne Hathaway

You can't stay the same. If you're a musician and a singer, you have to change, that's the way it works.
Van Morrison
Image
If you're a pop singer, you don't need to evolve. You just get a set together, have some hit songs and play them over and over.
Van Morrison
Image
You've got to separate the singer and the songs.
Van Morrison

Lots of opera singers are just boring.
Anna Netrebko

When I started, my teachers told me that I had to sing Mozart, Mozart, Mozart. I said, No, I want to sing all the other stuff. If you do not push yourself, you will stay the same. Maybe some singers are happy with that, but I have to move, I have to do something new always.
Anna Netrebko
Image
As I was not a good singer - I have started to sing. And because no one could write an appropriate song for me - I started to write songs by myself.
Verka Serduchka
Image
I was always a singer, it was nothing anyone planned on me doing for real, because it's an unusual thing. I was just sort of saying, even having modest ambitions to have a small career at singing, it's still really difficult to do that. Everyone wants to sing or act or whatever.
Lana Del Rey
Image
Yes. My mother was and still is a Folk Singer. She was very involved in the political movements for Unions and Civil rights. She sang with Pete Seeger among others. My father was an Actor.
Vicki Sue Robinson

So, you play today! You don't worry about what's gone, 'cause that's already gone and you can't bring what's gone back. It doesn't happen that way. So, every day's a new day and just play it as it comes. And I turned out to be a singer that was not on dope.
Anita O'Day
