Who cares about the clouds when we're together? Just sing a song and bring the sunny weather.

Dale Evans Rogers

I used to sing with them.

Bettye Bullock

[W]e have always resented the natural inclination of most white people to demand spirituals the moment it is known that a Negro is about to sing. So often the request has seemed to savor of the feeling that we could do this and this alone.

Countee Cullen

When you sing it in meditation technique it harmonizes your own life -- you make the connection with things in your life that are near and dear to you.

Doug White

Birds sing after a storm; why shouldn't people feel as free to delight in whatever remains to them?

Rose F. Kennedy

It's very difficult for me to say 'I love you' but to sing 'I love you' for me is easier.

Neil Diamond

You've waited this long, you can definitely sing the song.

Yolanda Adams

I don't use backing tapes when I am singing and dancing on stage. I can do cartwheels and sing.

Beyonce Knowles

I'll love you, dear, I'll love you till China and Africa meet and the river jumps over the mountain and the salmon sing in the street.

W. H. Auden

A bird in hand is a certainty. But a bird in the bush may sing.

Bret Harte

We can't forget what happened on May 4th, 1970, when four students gave up their lives because they had the American constitutional right of peaceful protest. They gave up their lives. And to sing that song in that spot on that anniversary was very emotional for us.

Graham Nash

I wanted to be a Broadway star when I was younger. I wanted to sing and dance until I realized I was a horrible dancer and could probably never do it.

Michelle Branch

We haven't done anything for him yet. We'll probably sing happy birthday to him or something.

Mike Imoh

I can't really make another Blur record that's a big landscape sort of thing, due to my very basic guitar ability, ... I want to sing and play so it has to be three chords. I can only do three chords and not look at the guitar.

Damon Albarn

Can, too. All right, people would be surprised to know I sing, rap ? and like English class. I like to write.

Dejuan Blair

We were joking the other day about which fight song we should sing when we win. I guess both right now.

David Mcauliffe

All music if folk music. I ain't never heard no horse sing a song.

Louis Armstrong

I cannot sing the old songs now! / It is not that I deem them low; / 'Tis that I can't remember how / They go.

C. S. Calverley

Everybody in town wanted to sing with Ray.

Rick Blackburn

We have played hymns and songs that people know like ?The Star-Spangled Banner? or ?Battle Hymn of the Republic.? Sometimes people like to sing along.

Brooks Yang

In almost everything that touches our everyday life on earth, God is pleased when we're pleased. He wills that we be as free as birds to soar and sing our maker's praise without anxiety.

A. W. Tozer

There's not only emotion in the way you sing but also in what you sing. That way I can compensate it.

Beth Gibbons

Hit television show American Idol is the perfect example of this. Thousands of hopefuls sing their heart out (sometimes very badly) for a shot at the brass ring of fame. Now, it looks like all you have to do is log on to eBay and make a bid.

Doug Garrison

I used to watch the Connie Francis movie Where the Boys Are. I would throw a T-shirt on my head and make believe that I had long, blond hair and sing with a Coke bottle.

Holly Woodlawn

We don't compare. It's not my poem is better than yours. We're like a chorus. Some sing alto, some sing baritone, some sing bass.

Mary Hilaire Tavenner

When did I decide to go into business? Well, it wasn't a business, when I decided. It was simply a need to sing.

David Crosby

It was a lot of years before I got something I wanted to sing in front of other people.

Chuck Brodsky

No disrespect to you, Mr. President -- I am privileged to be here with you tonight. But I really came because I got a chance to sing with B.B. King.

Della Reese

There wasn't a particular point where I realised that I could sing.

Hayley Westenra

I mean it's weird because the thing that I love about acting is the fact that I can help people feel things, know themselves or feel less alone. It's my form of expression, in the same way that someone might paint a picture or sing a song in that you're hoping that it moves somebody outside of their own way of thinking.

Naomi Watts

It says the right things. When we do the song live, people stand up and sing along by the first chorus.

Gene Johnson

Everyone was on their feet and he was so touched with their affection that he came back in the encore to sing eight more songs. It was unbelievable.

Lazaro Megret

You can sing anything you like -- When I'm 64.

Cherie Blair

They just love listening to (the Golden Harmonizers) sing and perform. They put on such a great show and are very funny!

Jimmie Yakel

Somebody did complain to me and tell me that my clothes were so loud they couldn't hear me sing.

Cyndi Lauper

It's Creed meets Zeppelin meets Doors with 7's (influence). So it's going to have some thump in the back and rock over the top of it -- but I'm not going to rap. I'm going to sing.

Scott Stapp

Nothing much. I can't sing, I can't act, I'm no good with conjuring tricks. You don't need me for your bally concert.

Anthony Blair

You'll see the team run over to the band section in the north end zone and sing the fight song.

Mike Hill

It's good family entertainment. They are unique in their own right because of what they sing and how they sing.

Charlie Samples

If your body is not in shape to sing [from the diaphragm] you will push and push but keep falling back on your throat to make the sound. This will ruin your voice.

Luciano Pavarotti

When they go out for tribal fighting and they fight and kill a man... they come back to the tribe and organize a sing-sing like that because they are happy they have killed the enemy.

Howard Willia

I would love to sing with Ella Fitzgerald.

Crystal Waters

I knew from a young age that I could sing and it was impressed upon me that if I got a classically trained education in voice, it would serve as a foundation for whatever I chose to do.

Shuler Hensley

Calabash portrays Jamaica as a highly educated and sophisticated literary society, that we have talent and that we cannot only sing music but we can also write books.

Justine Henzell

Now cracks a noble heart. Goodnight sweet prince, may flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

Wellington Mara

We are trying to prove that the blues lives on forever and anybody in this place can sing the blues.

Ruth Brown

They want a Beatles song, people want us to sing, they want me to sing?

Cherie Blair

Golden slumbers kiss your eyes, / Smiles awake you when you rise. / Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry, / And I will sing a lullaby.

Thomas Dekker

The national anthem is kind of a hard song to sing sometimes, and God gave me the strength to put it together.

Darryl Reed

We try to educate and recruit people to sing with us. We have two membership drives a year, but anyone is welcome to come to a meeting at any time if they are interested in becoming a member.

Julie Macgregor

The pen wherewith thou dost so heavenly sing Made of a quill from an angel's wing.

Henry Constable

I'd start to sing, and the record would start skipping. You'd be skipping along with it. Those were the days, my friend. We'd look so stupid, but the kids loved it.

Wilson Pickett

Are you kidding me? The thing is, I sing so much better now. I wish I could do the whole first record again. I'm going to try to have a new album out in a year.

Kathy Valentine

I didn't carry on with music much as an adult, but my daughters sing and play in band. It's a great way for kids to use their talents constructively. You'll rarely hear of any of these kids being in any kind of serious trouble.

Susan Sauer Sacher

But thousands of people march to my songs, some just ignore me and shuffle along, some other tip me, hah, and sometimes they sing right along.

Jon English

God gave me a voice to sing with, and when you have that, what other gimmick is there?

Whitney Houston

We met the first day and sang in the choir together, ... We played guitar at churches. We used to borrow the priests' guitars and take the microphones from church to sing. So many times we would sing in the bathrooms in Cathedral because the acoustics were awesome.

Robert Vega

Ray hooked us up with that. The song is called 'Whole Lot of Nada,' and we're going to play it that night. We're in the works of shopping it around to some people for someone to sing it.

Robert Vega

When mosquitoes work, they bite and then they sing.

Malayan Proverb

I tell them 'I'm going to sing with a bunch of old guys. They're like, I don't know, they just don't know how to react really. It's pretty funny.

Collin Lapp

When I sing, trouble can sit right on my shoulder and I don't even notice.

Sarah Vaughan

Steve's teaching ability is second to none and each Monday night is like a free voice lesson, ... If you like or want to be able to sing, this is the place for you to be.

Bob Miller

I'm shy, yeah.There's a huge industry at the moment of celebrity and it's really evolved over the last 10-15 years and, um, although I'm somebody that's in the public eye from time to time, I don't play that game too much. I don't like it because I find it very superficial - I just like to make my music and I like to sing. I don't really hang out.

Annie Lennox

Every year we celebrate the holy season of Advent, O God. Every year we pray those beautiful prayers of longing and waiting, and sing those lovely songs of hope and promise.

Karl Rahner

We really just started to say this is really kind of what we want to do, as opposed to let's recapture our youth. Let's embrace the melodies and the things we really want to sing.

Julissa Martinez

It's ill-becoming for an old broad to sing about how bad she wants it. But occasionally we do.

Lena Horne

A good lyric sings to me. And another lyricist might sing another lyrical song to me.

Barry Mann

God spreads it around pretty good, he allows me to sing, so I'm not going to be picky.

Angie Mcwhirter

We picked this day so we could come see this. We like hearing people sing about God.

Amy Turner

I call it event-appropriate, meaning you don't just have one style that you wear when you sing the national anthem at the Super Bowl and when you sing on a concert stage.

Tina Knowles

Whenever I attempted to sing of love, it turned to pain. And again, when I tried to sing of pain, it turned to love. Thus were love and pain divided in me.

Lotte Lehmann

Children and adults alike will sing until we shut it down for the main event.

Lisa Mcbride

All I needed to do was sing the lyrics that had already been written. I don't know those guys; they seem kind of kooky and crazy. I like their vibe.

Adam Levine

There's a lot of vocal harmonies in our music, ... We sing loud, hard and in harmony.

Paul Duncan

They did try, but I always said no, I can't. I think I would panic in front of all the people. I like to do it just for fun, but I'm afraid. I will sing to people I trust, but not around people I don't know.

Miguel Ojeda

I could sing before I could talk, Everything's Gonna Be Alright.

Sharon Lewis

No one knew she could sing until one day in drama class we were working on a musical and she belted a song out. We were all blown away.

Samantha Poplin

We'll sing certain programs of music, such as an Irish one or holiday tunes.

Joyce Mitchell

I wasn't actually trained by my mother, she said she never taught me but she was a great singer herself and I can't remember when I didn't listen to her sing and imitate her.

Joan Sutherland

When we first got together, we didn't talk about who was going to sing what. We did 'Church on Cumberland Road' and it was undeniable when we hit that first chorus. We felt like we had to do it. We felt like it was ordained.

Gary Levox

He's a has-been. He'll never sing like he did.

John Walton

We represent peace, goodwill, understanding. We sing songs that speak to those issues.

Troy Fisher

I think the individual writers are out there punching away but the market is not there. The Top 40 as we knew it was a kind of open forum where people could come and sing their songs and that's not there any more.

Jimmy Webb

I don't sing for anybody. I wouldn't sing for the Queen dear.

Joan Sutherland

I would say to anyone attending the opening ceremony who wishes to pay their respect to the Queen to go ahead and sing the royal anthem anyway.

Peter Ryan

Josh is one of the performers who enjoy getting everyone involved. Some performers just do a show and don't even look at the audience; he loves getting people to sing along.

Bob Blackman

She would get up and sing and dance. People looked forward to her coming. She was a real ball of fire.

Debbie Dool

I was lucky that way. I always held on to it and appreciated it, ... The songs on this album were more personal and I really wanted to sing them.

Jason Mraz

He is the best singer on the team. If he was in here, he would sing it for you along with some other stuff. I know it to a certain extent, but I'm not going to sing it for you.

Justin Vincent

She used to sing and dance all over the house. She loved music.

Lucille Ventrelli

I learned quite a bit. They were very supportive. It took me a while to pick it up. That's the cool thing about this group, we sing all styles. We get a range of everything. We're pretty much like a family.

Chelsea Wallace

I'm happy right now but am always striving to do better, ... Today, I can sing with anybody. But I also know it's a gift.

Susan Tedeschi

I got a Johnny Cash voice, but I'm gonna sing Kenny Rogers. I'm sure I'm the oldest here. I'm 62.

Mike Duffy

The ladies who ran the contest said, 'Well honey, don't you sing while you sew or maybe you tap dance while you sew?' I said, 'No ma'am, I just sort of sit there.' That was not what they wanted to hear.

Deborah Norville

Any subject is good for opera if the composer feels it so intently he must sing it out.

Gian Carlo Menotti

I used to look down on Christian singers who sang in nightclubs. I'd be, like, 'How can you do that?' And now I think, 'Who was I to judge?' I'm a Christian man who can sing good music and it doesn't conflict with my beliefs.

Angelo Petrucci

I don't care which song the grownups pick as the single. I never have. I'm just happy I was able to sing the song and Kevin's happy with it. My mom likes it. Everybody likes it. I'm glad. I like it, too.

Bif Naked

I'll sing as long as people want to hear me, and I'll be able to sing as long as I'm alive.

John Raitt

A bell's not a bell 'til you ring it A song's not a song 'til you sing it Love in your heart wasn't put there to stay Love isn't love 'til you give it away!

Oscar Hammerstein Ii

My hope is that by the time this new Ring comes along, she will be ready to sing it.

Peter Gelb

I have a girlfriend and she hasn't minded, ... She thinks it's funny I have to sing about that stuff.

Patrick Stump

It works. Fans sing; they create their own words to it.

Teresa Shear

This is far from over. The fat lady's not singing yet and probably won't sing for a while.

Susan Macmanus

A lot of people say they can sing and they really can't. I just remember thinking, 'OK, who is this 19-year-old kid?' To be honest, I kind of ignored him.

Mike Fluno

I used to sing the 'Sound of Music' when I was 2.

Hunter Hall

I've had a wordless phase, and that's still not entirely over: what I sing is not always literally meant that way, and you can hear that in the way it is sung.

Beth Gibbons

When people start knocking those bands, those bands that sing all that harmony, it's hard, I can't do it. Course, there's only one of me.

Randy Newman

My life is singing. I don't plan on retiring. I plan to die on a stage. I can have a headache but when it's time to sing and I step on that stage there is no more headache.

Celia Cruz

If you think you've hit a false note, sing loud. When in doubt, sing loud.

Robert Merrill

Tell the truth. Sing with passion. Work with laughter. Love with heart. 'Cause that's all that matters in the end.

Kris Kristofferson

It's a pretty happy civil environment. It's a sing-along, ... I've never been there without the band.

Graham Spanier

If someone in Lamar County wants to come sing, they're welcome too. We're not going to turn anyone away.

Mark Mcdaniel

Part of being a Master is learning how to sing in nobody else's voice but your own.

Hugh Macleod

Because David was becoming well-known for his noises he wanted to show he could actually sing.

Mike Wengren

I like to dance and sing when there's no one around, but, if I'm out, I'm really shy about it. So it takes a lot to get me going, but I enjoy being around music.

Derek Jeter

Or merry swains, who quaff the nut-brown ale, and sing enamoured of the nut-brown maid.

James Beattie

It's going to be pretty neat. The best part will be when they sing the national anthem and the jets fly over and you're getting buckled in. That's when you know it's all about to start. I'm sure it will be pretty exciting, but I don't think I'll be nervous.

Reed Sorenson

Sacred texts are universal and their truths are eternal. There is not a thing that we sing that doesn't have our personal conviction.

David Chalmers

I am definitely shy in front of a camera... there were scenes were I have a guy in the video and I have to get in his face and sing and I am so shy. I just couldn't do it. I have come to the conclusion that I just can't act. I don't think I really belong in front of a camera.

Michelle Branch

We have 20 previous choir members coming back to sing with our regular choir. And a few trumpets.

Terrell Mosely

I'm the kind of person who can hear that stuff. If you sing along to the radio and you're not going to sing unison with the melody, but find the harmony, I find that pretty easy to do.

Art Garfunkel

I can sing as well as Fred Astaire can act.

Burt Reynolds

There would be even more performances if Butterfly wasn't such an incredibly difficult role to sing.

Benton Hess

I always want people to - to get the message that I'm trying to send out. You know, I've been through some things, so when I get up there and sing my songs, I'm like, Hey, I've been through it, and I want to encourage somebody else that if you're going through it, you can come out.

Fantasia Barrino

Kelsey's always loved singing. When she was a baby, we bought her a play radio and discovered she could sing along with any type of music.

Salina Hickson

Not everybody has to sing the melody.

Pete Seeger

I'm not really religious but very spiritual. I give money to this company that manufactures hearing aids on a regular basis. More people should really hear me sing. I have a gift from God.

Christina Aguilera

To get the timing right was so difficult. When it's live, I look at him and know what he's going to sing.

Nancy Riebau

I sing of brooks, of blossoms, birds, and bowers: / Of April, May, of June, and July-flowers. / I sing of maypoles, hock-carts, wassails, wakes, / Of bridegrooms, brides, and of their bridal cakes.

Robert Herrick

I thought these songs were constructed very well. All the lyrics were very strong. I won't sing things that I wouldn't say in conversation, or things that wouldn't be believable.

Bettye Lavette

We might do a date here or there if there are opportunities to get a special guest to sing. That's been discussed. More likely at this point we'll do benefits rather than paying gigs.

Bill Siddons

I had a girl in Seattle sing 'Hopelessly Devoted to You,' you know, Olivia Newton-John from Grease and she just killed it, she rocked it out. That was cool.

Michelle Mcnulty

I take my hat off to sing the 'Star Spangled Banner. I was a Boy Scout, but I am broken right now, because I am seeing things that are wrong.

Richard Scrushy

My singing wasn't horrible, but my dancing really made it look silly. It's not like I'm a horrible singer that can't sing. But I don't have the consistency or the presentation skills that a good performer has.

William Hung

She is truly incredible when she listens to the radio and is able to sing the harmonies. I?m jealous of that ability.

Michelle King

Because it's the way that you feel and the stories that you are listening to that usually happen to people... like... the things I sing about are basically, somewhat, what goes on in my life. They're stories and I enjoy telling the stories.

Bobby Bland

Hopefully, we'll see all our favorite bounty hunters from Empire and others including Aura Sing searching the galaxy in the hunt for the scalps of any remaining Jedi, ... Maybe we'll see how Yoda ends up on Dagobah and what Alderaan does to annoy the Empire sufficiently to have it destroyed.

Mark Hamilton

But I knew if I ran I'd never be able to sing, so I had to take my punishment.

Aaron Neville

You've got to sing like you don't need the money.

Glenda Jackson

It was Elvis, and they were going to have a party or something... So he came over to the house and... whoever was at the house knew that Elvis was coming over, so they were hiding behind the curtain. My father was out watering the garden. And he would always ask me to sing, and he'd want to sing harmony. And it was all very exciting.

Connie Stevens

There were times that Harvey (Fuqua), myself, B.B King, we almost had to go to jail to sing this stuff.

Ruth Brown

He loved to sing spirituals because they told a story.

Murray Walker

You just can't go out and find somebody who's going to sing the anthem with respect.

Jim Nantz

We did find one that can do pretty good. But he's still not up to par because he can't sing background. He can do the front but not background. You have to be versatile.

Clarence Fountain

If somebody sings, 'Baby I'll fly to the moon for you, I'll bring the stars down,' that's a damn lie. I sing about the events of the world as it's going today. It's more like gospel than anything else.

Henry Townsend

I've always loved gospel, ... My mom was involved in church music. I sang a lot in church. It's an opportunity to learn music and sing uplifting music.

Jack Hall

There may be music they're familiar with from the movies or something like that. And it sounds so much better played by a full symphony. ... I sing along in my mind and love it when they play Broadway.

Susan Jones

Sing, Muse, of the anger of Achilles, son of Peleus...

Homer

He would sing Rent songs to me. He told me how much he really loved musical theatre, which you would never know.

Idina Menzel

Being the songwriter that I am, the easiest way to translate what you're doing for people is to give them hooks, something to latch on to, something they can sing themselves.

Fred Leblanc

We're a choir that is not limited to one genre of music. Even though we are a predominately black choir. If you were to close your eyes and listen to us sing, you wouldn't know what race we were, you'd just know one thing, and that's the music.

Antonio Witherspoon

I have such a feeling when I hear this girl sing. When she lands a song the right way, with that amazing voice of hers, I sob from my bones.

Andrea Marcovicci

I'm just the instrument for the song to do whatever it's supposed to do-heal, inspire or encourage. It's not all about me, it's about the song. I'm just the lucky girl who gets to sing these songs.

Martina Mcbride

I celebrate myself, and sing myself.

Walt Whitman

People used to call us a funk band. But it was a little more complicated than that. We were a fusion group made commercial. We had a lot of progressive chord changes and bebop horn lines and then hooks that a child could sing.

Ralph Johnson

One thing I don't do is, I don't listen to Sinatra before I record or before I go out live. Because if I did, I'd have to say, "What am I doing?" I couldn't listen to the greatest singer in the world and try to go out there and sing. I'd be too depressed.

James Darren

Darcie, this is when you sing, 'Off we go into the wild blue yonder, climbing high into the sun...'

John James

When I sing, I pick out people in the audience and pinpoint on them. So if you feel that I am singing just for you, you may be right!

Glenn Hughes

To hear them sing, I couldn't stop crying. The tears just couldn't stop. I just love them so much.

Janice Cook

Live well. Sing out, sing loud, and sing often. And God bless the child that's got a song.

Nanci Griffith

The biggest reward from that record was the enthusiasm everyone had to sing on it. The Grammy nominations and the chart positions are great, but ultimately the way you interact with other musicians is the most important thing to me.

Chris Botti

One of the obligations of the writer is to say or sing all that he or she can, to deal with as much of the world as becomes possible to him or her in language.

Denise Levertov

A lot of Irish people perform. They perform in drawing rooms. They sing songs and they play piano.

Fiona Shaw

Blacks began to sing out of necessity because they couldn't speak. We wanted to honor that.

Linda Wilson

We all sing about the things we're thinking; musicals are about expressing those emotions that you can't talk about. It works a real treat.

Anthony Stewart Head

With a lift of his chin, and a bit of a grin/ Without any doubting or "quit it,"/ He started to sing, as he tackled the thing/ That couldn't be done, and he did it.

Edgar A. Guest

We had to shoot the Last Splash dance scene, and that was the song that was playing. So we probably heard that song about a hundred times, and I got back to L.A. and they asked if I wanted to sing that song.

Emma Roberts

I sing about political accountability and revisiting ideas about democracy and I also open my heart in my songs.

Ember Swift

Then sing, young hearts that are full of cheer, with never a thought of sorrow; the old goes out, but the glad young year comes merrily in tomorrow.

Emily Miller

In my secret life, I wish I didn't have to be a university professor. I wish I could sing full time.

Elaine Richardson

I never thought I'd get a chance to sing with Wilson Pickett but we did.

Eddie Floyd

I can make them voting machines sing Home Sweet Home.

Earl Long
