Zitat des Tages von Jo Stafford:
I had a very unusual contract. Most artists actually pay for their record dates and it comes out of their royalties. I paid for nothing.
There was never anything like it before in history. It was a different kind of joyous, happy screaming.
When rock came in, I wasn't bitter about it. I was puzzled.
I've got a computer, but I won't go near it.
I'll probably never put out another album because I'm a tough critic of my work, and I don't think I could come up to those standards any more.
The world is a pile of grunge.
I wasn't driven. I just really loved what I did.
Whatever fame came did so not because I sought it.
You knew after eight bars that you were hearing something just absolutely new and unique.
Songs suffer at the mercy of the performer.
Songwriting is an art unto itself, not to be confused with performing.
