Whatever you feel is going to be truthful and maybe some artists don't feel like their songs are, have the same impact when they're remixed.
When I first heard that song, it was a ballad but it had a lot more. It felt like a gospel song when I first heard it and it just moved me.
They've got the singles and some people have burnt them from different web sites and stuff. So it was something that we talked about for a long, long time, and I just wanted to make sure that this remix album to be really special.
People see that I have my own voice, my own opinion, my own likes. The album really reflects that.
The record was only released in the UK, and then when the idea for the remixed album came about, which was an idea that I've had for the longest time, I said this would be great song to remix as well, and so we did it.
It's really a grand old, legendary theatre where the spirits of like Judy Garland and all these great performers have been. The clubs are way more underground.
From beginning to end it's about keeping the energy and the intensity of the story and not doing too much and not doing too little, but just enough so people stay interested and stay involved in the characters.
So I did 'Something Happened on the Way to Heaven' and the original version is a ballad. The original Phil record is uptempo but we slowed it down and made it a ballad.
I've always been switching around the show to accommodate the audience, and you know it really makes it a lot more fun for me and keeps it fresh so that I'm not complacent with the same show every night and with every audience.
I wanted to do Dreamgirls. If they're doing a stage production of Sparkle, I think that would be hot.
I prefer Princess. I would love to be known as a diva later on in life when I've had far more experiences.
The song came out to be a gem, just came out to be a really, really interesting rendition of it.
I'm not supposed to miss you, I'm not supposed to care
I picked up the Joss Stone album, Josh Groban, and the new Norah Jones. I love, love, love Norah.
