To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funnybone.

I think it's a wonderful time for a woman.

So, I think it has to do with the product and what you take to the public. If they like it, they're going to come see you, and if they don't, and if you're kind of getting out of the trendy line of things, then they won't come see you.

Being a strong woman is very important to me. But doing it all on my own is not.

For me, singing sad songs often has a way of healing a situation. It gets the hurt out in the open into the light, out of the darkness.
