Drums just always sounded like the most fun part of that good music for me.

Music is what our feelings sound like.

I was a big fan of Middle Eastern elements of music and experimental electronic and tribal sounds.

I love sad songs. They say so much. I love country music but even the happy songs sound really sad.

All that stuff about heavy metal and hard rock I don't subscribe to any of that. It's all just music. I mean the heavy metal from the '70s sounds nothing like the stuff from the '80s and that sounds nothing like the stuff from the '90s. Who's to say what is and isn't a certain type of music?

I like music that's more offensive. I like it to sound like nails on a blackboard get me wild.

I think it's important for people who love music to retain physical CDs or even vinyl because it sounds so great and so much warmer than music over the internet.

I was lucky enough to be the lady that was asked to be Maria in the Sound Of Music and that film was fortunate enough to be huge hit. The same with Mary Poppins. I got terribly lucky in that respect.

All my concerts had no sounds in them they were completely silent. People had to make up their own music in their minds!

Because of the Thames I have always loved inland waterways - water in general water sounds - there's music in water. Brooks babbling fountains splashing. Weirs waterfalls tumbling gushing.
