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.

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

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
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.

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

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

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

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

You've got to separate the singer and the songs.

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

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

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.

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

As soon as you get off stage, that's the most dangerous time for a singer to kiss people because your vocal chords are receptive to any kind of germ.
Anita Baker

I can relax in L.A. I think I'm the only person in that town who doesn't want to act. I was an OK singer. I was an OK dancer. But acting? Never could do it.

I was in a Led Zeppelin cover band in high school, and my highlight was playing Misty Mountain Hop at a coffee house in Wayne, Pennsylvania. I wasn't allowed to play any instruments I could only be the singer because I was a girl.
Victoria Legrand
Image
The guys in high school were like, You've got a nice voice you should keep singing, but I never honestly thought that one day I'd be a singer. When you're young, you don't see the signs.
Victoria Legrand

At the end of the day, all people want to do is hear a great singer sing a great song. They don't care about what vocal changes it went through. You can't screw up a great song and a great singer.
Vince Gill

When your dad makes a living as a children's singer, you figure, 'I can do anything.' He made up his own job and did it.
Andy Grammer
Image
There is nothing to compare with the instantaneous feedback a singer gets from the people sitting in front of him. That is where it all comes together - all the rehearsing and working to get everything just exactly right.
Andy Gibb
Image
The eye is the painter and the ear the singer.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Electric guitars are an abomination, whoever heard of an electric violin? An electric cello? Or for that matter an electric singer?
Andres Segovia
Image
I started as a lyrical singer. But it was through the pop universe that I reached international fame.
Andrea Bocelli

The activity of a singer that sings opera is similar to that of an athlete.
