I Was Brought Up In This Part

I Look Forward To The Future - And Going Into The Studio To Make New Music.

A Reporter Once Asked Me If I Ever Cried. I Wonder If People Think I'm Just As Hard As A Rock And Have No Emotions At All.

I Listen To Most Everything That's Out There Because I Need To Stay Aware Of What's Happening In The Industry.

All Of A Sudden I Feel More Womanly, I Feel Like I Got A Figure. I Was Always Really Straight Up And Down, The Skinny One In The Middle, Like That Poster At Elaine's Of The Supremes At Lincoln Center - It Was Done By Joe Eula. To Me That's Really A Reflection Of The Way I Was. I Was Just Like A Bean Pole. Now I'm Getting A Few Curves And I Like It.

My Father Worked Hard, But We Were Still Very Poor; And I Didn't Want Anybody Arguing About Money, So I Became The Entertainer, The One Who Wanted Everyone To Be Happy. I Didn't Want There To Be Any Problems.
