I think I'm a better singer than I used to be. When we started I didn't see vocals as that important, it was just another instrument. I've changed my mind about that now.

She learned it all, she does it all. ... Everybody's doing everything. They're really singing on the set. We recorded their vocals with the orchestra before we shot, but then we had them sing live on the set, so that when I got to editing, I ... could use their recorded vocal or their live vocal.
Susan Stroman
The choir has become a huge international success. Their concerts are an incredible experience. They use dancers and drummers, and the vocals are profoundly beautiful and uplifting.
Kathy Hotchner
Stacey's realistic lyrics and vocals are easily understood; soothing and gentle in parts, but angry and outspoken in others. Stacey has a lot to say and sings it well!
San Antonio
The Rutgers Jazz Ensemble is a very fine group so it was a natural to have the students involved in this. We wanted to have a real mix of musical styles, from vocals to the Hammond B3. And also, for this series, I felt it should be mostly artists from around the area who you might not hear in New York.
Holly Hofmann
It was nice to be able to look at the guitar player and suggest something else, and feeling comfortable with that. We even used scratch vocals on two of the songs. That's how comfortable I felt. One of the musicians wrote one of the songs and played a couple of the instruments. He also did background vocals with me and I also did some myself. We kept it all right there in the family.
Angie Mcwhirter
To me this album seems more energetic and raw, with more space — unlike the first one, which was about stacking up 50 guitars and 80 backing vocals on each track.
Damian Kulash
This small combination allows each instrument and the vocals to really stand out in this sparse arrangement. At the same time, we're able to put enough power and drive to really push the music along when it's called for.
Matt Nozzolio
It was raw and powerful. It certainly lacked the professional polish to it that a Hollywood record producer could bring to it, but the depth of his voice and the intense emotions contrasted with the incredibly sweet background vocals.
Melanie Morgan
The first thing people look at with Four Seasons records is the vocals. But for me, the drum fills and rhythms are as much a part of it as anything. They're the base on which the harmonies were built.
Bob Gaudio
Andy and I had a extreme view about what we wanted, ... We didn't want the music to be shrouded in mystery. We wanted every instrument to sound like itself, instead of double tracking guitars or harmonising the vocals. It was that pursuit of authenticity that Andy and I were looking for. So, apart from a bit of reverb we wouldn't use any tricks.
Jon King
A lot clearer and brighter. The vocals are up. David really taught Julian how to accept his voice and hear it over the top of the mix.
Ryan Gentles
It's just a traditional jazz format. Piano, bass, vocals, and then jazz players just kind of come and sit in.
Neal Connors
We used to have a singer but he didn't work out and we never replaced him. We all do vocals on the record, and live, we, me and Joel, split it up.
Randy Huth
I think one of the things about writing in the studio is that the song hasn't matured, if you like, so quite often the vocals are early attempts. Whereas once you've taken it out on the road a bit, you learn more about a song.
Peter Gabriel
I don't think it was a conscious decision. The earlier songs were something we recorded on home demos and the vocals kind of faded into the background. The new songs are professionally recorded.
Milton Banerjee
Kirk Hammett, lead guitar and attempted vocals.
Kirk Hammett
I didn't learn as much from him on the road as I did in 10 minutes in the studio. He did some vocals, and I learned about microphone technique watching him in the studio.
James Hunter
It was way out in the woods in a beautiful, huge log studio. Keith Richards came in and did the vocals with Levon. Again, a big party, but we did get a good cut out of it.
Scotty Moore
I think we all agree that the vocals are the most important part of the band.
Tyler Bond
I love that guy's vocals.
The League
We don't pigeonhole ourselves in metal. We think our music is more rhythmic. There's a lot that gets attached to metal - the look, the weird vocals that really don't fit our music.
Mike Wengren
Mark's a great singer and great performer and songwriter. He took over the vocals and harmony singing with me.
Chuck Mead
It's very guitar driven music, and we found that it works best if you keep it pure. Vocals lead to controversy over what language to use-English or Spanish. Either way, you alienate part of your audience. The instrumental music is universal.
Jeremy Garcia
We had about 30 songs. I picked some I thought my mom would really like and some I liked. We went in with piano and acoustic guitar, and overdubbed organ on some of them, and a couple harmony vocals. We were just really loose with it.
Alan Jackson
It's a song, but it's a jam because it's without vocals, that's why I say that.
Shavo Odadjian
I got the TLA-50s when I was working with Common two years ago, and I've been very happy with them. I wanted something that was transparent, that worked without coloring the sound. The Summit unit allowed me to have the vocals pop through, where they are fat and clear, but still in control. That's what I needed: a little more color control to help place things in the mix.
Phil Strong
Our music is our strong suit. The vocals take a backseat as opposed to a singer who just stands up there and sings. Sometimes, you don't necessarily need words.
Ryan Confer
He's pretty demanding because our fans are pretty demanding. We know what an audience expects from this group: a high-energy show with choreography and slick vocals.
Terry Weeks
When it comes down to vocals, I want to hear something that's going to be melodic. David's always had those animalistic instincts of making those gut sounds, or whatever you want to call it. But he's developed a really strong singing voice.
Dan Donegan
The song aren't complete without vocals and harmonies.
Michael Lindner
I just like simplicity. I like simple songs, I like simple chords, simple vocals, simple lead guitar. I just like simplicity. That's just the way I like it.
Jeremy Spencer
[The struggling quartet did backing vocals for Crewe productions while lead singer Valli (with whom Gaudio remains partners)] knocked on a lot of doors ... Sherry.
Bob Gaudio
What we started out as isn't what it's going to become. There's a lot of room for growth. We expected to evolve. There's a lot of room for us to shift, whether it's altering the sound or adding vocals. I can see Particle becoming something much different than it is now.
Eric Gould
He worked our tails off. There were a hundred vocals I thought were perfect that he made me sing a dozen more times before he was happy. I got to the point that I just laughed and said, 'OK, Brian, you're the boss.' Now that I've heard the record, I'm glad he worked my rear to death. I really don't hear anything that I'd want to change.
Erik Heimann
I think with Sentinel, and every band's biased of themselves obviously, there's a large element of singularity to us. There really isn't another band like us in the mainstream. There may be a band in the underground that I don't know about, but when you get down to it, the mix of the vocals and the mix of the list that we play, nobody out there is in any way like us.
