Singing Quotes

Singing has opened so many doors for me. And that’s definitely a true passion of mine. It’s a natural, God-given gift Picture Quote #1

There is something powerful about singing to God as an act of worship, but it is time to reframe our perspective and our language to genuinely encompass all of life as worship Picture Quote #1

Starting in my teens, I was always standing on the corner near our apartment singing harmony with friends. We’d also go to the park and sing under the bridge near the lake for the echo. When it was cold out, we’d stand in the little heated lobby in the project’s administration building, where my mom paid the rent each month Picture Quote #1

I don’t think you can cover a song unless you love it and have a relationship with it. With ‘Golden Heart’ I felt a sense of responsibility. And when we were recording it in the studio, it felt almost dream-like. Something you might hear if you were in Senegal, with someone singing from the mosque in the morning just as the sun’s coming up Picture Quote #1

Singing always came naturally but the writing side is something I have always had to work hard at to get from good songs to great songs Picture Quote #1

As for singing, my parents say I have a good voice, but then again, they have to say that Picture Quote #1

My singing wasn’t horrible, but my dancing really made it look silly. It’s not like I’m a horrible singer that can’t sing. But I don’t have the consistency or the presentation skills that a good performer has Picture Quote #1

If you get a lot of good feedback from people, thats a sign that you have a strength or gift in writing, if not ... try singing Picture Quote #1

I am a moderately good singer. I am not a great singer but I can interpret a song, which I don’t think is quite the same as singing it Picture Quote #1

For a while, I couldn’t decide whether or not I should pursue singing in the opera or acting. And I’m glad that I chose the latter because I wasn’t a very good singer Picture Quote #1

I would think, to me, growing up in the south, growing up with all the gospel music, singing in the church and having that rhythm and blues - the blues background was my big inspiration Picture Quote #1

Gospel music is so ingrained into my bones. I can’t do a concert without singing a gospel song. It’s what I was raised on Picture Quote #1

I think in music there is just something inherently spiritual in singing together and harmonizing, and gospel is the truest form of that Picture Quote #1

There’s a little bit of gospel in everything I do. But I don’t know if I will ever do a gospel album. There’s a big universe out here, and I don’t want to just sing to the church. I want to sing to the world and bring them a message of love. I love going to church and singing gospel songs, but right now there’s a message that the world needs Picture Quote #1

Then when I was in grammar school I played the clarinet, and then, after clarinet I played the flute in college orchestra - besides singing in the college chorus and things like that Picture Quote #1

I think I’ve been influenced by everything I’ve ever heard. The first thing I ever heard was my grandma, who was an opera singer. The first song I ever learned was the ‘Nessun Dorma’ from Puccini’s ‘Turandot.’ My father was a big band singer, so I used to hear him walking around the house singing standards all the time Picture Quote #1

... We’re all about trying to play better every night, not just singing hit songs ... we ad lib, and every night there’s jamming .. it’s almost like the Grateful Dead meets Buck Owens some nights, because we’ll go off on little adventures and sometimes we do crash the bus! Picture Quote #1

Being a recording artist and having thousands of people listening to your music and singing your songs, and paying for it? It feels great! Picture Quote #1

I love singing and I think I have a really nice voice, but I don’t think I have an unbelievable singing voice. I think I have a great character voice Picture Quote #1

I feel comfortable singing in the great cathedrals of the world because I spent so much time as a child singing in church. And it isn’t very different. Of course, nothing looks quite like Notre Dame de Paris Picture Quote #1

When I write a play, and we read it for the first time, the great fear is that everybody is going to say, ‘You’re a bum and you can’t write. This stinks.’ and throw the script in the garbage. The great hope is that they’re all going to lift me up on their shoulders and carry me to the streets, singing, ‘He’s a genius, he’s a genius!’ Picture Quote #1

I think playing a horn has had a great influence on my singing. I’ve tried to approach singing from an instrumental mindset. Space is just as important as sound Picture Quote #1

There will always be some kid who’s the new Kurt Cobain writing great lyrics and singing from his soul. The problem is they’re not marketing that anymore or putting it out there Picture Quote #1

I’m glad I went through the training because I’ve met such great mentors and lifelong friends/collaborators along the way. Also, any training (acting, movement, dance, piano, singing, etc) allowed me to hone my skills and find an inner space of self-generating creativity Picture Quote #1

There is nothing else that I would rather do than sing. I have such a great passion for it. Even if I don’t become successful or famous I am still going to continue singing Picture Quote #1

Great Spirit when we come singing. When we face the sunset the last song, may it be, without shame, singing It is finished in beauty. It is finished in beauty! Picture Quote #1

Not everybody’s a great singer, but people can get better at singing. There’s great singing teachers out there. It’s a muscle, you just have to train it Picture Quote #1

I am singing a genre of music that people are very protective of. I am being compared to the greatest vocalist of all time Picture Quote #1

‘Doc, I can’t stop singing the green green grass of home. ‘That sounds like Tom Jones syndrome’. ‘Is it common?’ ‘It’s not unusual.’ Picture Quote #1

I believe in singing to such an extent that, if I were asked to redesign the British educational system, I would start by insisting that group singing becomes a central part of the daily routine. I believe it builds character and, more than anything else, encourages a taste for cooperation with others Picture Quote #1
