buying weakness watches
I have a weakness for watches. I have to stop myself buying more.
sexy voice way
You can't be a sexy person unless you have something sexy to offer. With me, it's my voice: the way that I sing, the way I express myself when I sing.
morning real successful
I think it's good that I had some experience of the real world before I became successful. You know, having to get up in the morning and going to work in construction.

The Musto Skiff combines the thrill of skiff performance with smooth control and well... it just blows your pants off!

Try to remember the kind of September When life was slow and oh so mellow Try to remember the kind of September When grass was green and grain so yellow Try to remember the kind of September When you were a young and a callow fellow Try to remember and if you remember Then follow-follow, oh-oh
voice long people
There's plenty for me to do. There are more albums. I'll record as long as I can and as long as my voice works as well as it does now and for as long as people want to hear me.

I've always liked to dance - I've got a natural rhythm.
love-is thinking age-love
I think teen-age love is a great thing. There's nothing quite like it and never will be for the rest of your life.
voice important done
I would want to be known as a great singer; that the records I've made and the performances that I've done to be remembered. But the voice is the most important thing. The showmanship goes along with it. But I want to be remembered for my vocal ability.
thinking hands looks
I've tried wearing more than one ring on one hand and it doesn't look good. It's overkill, I think. So I think a ring on either hand. Nine times out of ten I'll go for pinky rings, but not always.
integrity voice sound
There is nothing like the sound of a Welsh Male Choir and the Treorchy is the finest. They have represented the best of the Welsh voice for generations with honour and integrity. They are international ambassadors.
people culture stage
People never talked about my music. They just counted how many knickers were on stage.
