Vocal Quotations

And I've had vocal training on and off for years.
Julia Barr

I'm sure any vocal teacher that listens to me would rather cut my throat than do anything - I do everything all wrong - but I think for me that's the best - because I don't think I have a voice so I think what I project would be style - if I learned to sing I'd lose my style.
Julie London

I do not know whether there be, as a rule, more vocal expression of the sentiment of love between a man and a woman, than there is between two thrushes. They whistle and call to each other, guided by instinct rather than by reason.
Anthony Trollope

My vocal style I haven't tried to copy from anyone. It just developed until it became the girlish whine it is today.
Robert Plant

Even if I don't have the money to take vocal lessons, I'll practice in the house by myself singing out loud.
Christina Milian
