I really love things with melody.
God bless Ray Charles. It was such an honor to meet him and sing with him and actually just to watch him sing from just two feet away.
I should have a therapist. I have plenty to therapise about.
Come away with in the night Come away with me And I will sing you a song Come away with me on a bus Come away where they can't tempt us With there lies I want to walk with you On a cloudy day In fields where the yellow grass grows Knee-high So won't you try to come Come away with me and we'll kiss On a mountain top Come away with me And I'll never stop loving you And I want to wake up with the rain Falling on a tin roof While I'm safe there in your arms So all I ask is for you To come away with me in the night Come away with me.
I could do without 'cool' publications calling me 'mom jazz.' But I laughed all the way to the bank, baby.
I like songs with a lot of heart and feeling and subtlety.
I'm always going to do that - record and make music.
On the first album I was saying, that's just one part of me. And then I was thinking, well, am I going to hide the rest of me now just because I'm afraid of something? No. I'm just going to be myself.
I would love to make a real jazz album someday because I never have. But that's something I'm not in a rush to do.
Making records is fun. It's not some big statement. You're allowed to make mistakes.
I'm not a great piano player.
I hope there are some audiophiles still out there.
Songwriting is something I really need to work on. I don't have very many songs but I really love it. I would love to be a great song writer some day.
I don't want to be the next big anything. I just want to play for people and that's it.
