My mother was the only one who encouraged and inspired me for singing. She was singing all the time in the house, playing records also.

The international travelling gets harder as I get older, but when I'm performing on stage, it makes it all worth while.

When I did the video for 'Holding Out For A Hero,' we filmed that on top of the Grand Canyon, and that was quite frightening. I was close to the edge, and there was a helicopter hovering about, creating a lot of wind, and I was nervous I was going to fall off.

My voice was left with its husky sound after surgery on large vocal nodules.

When I tour with the new album, I still do the classics, and I love the atmosphere it creates with the whole audience singing along.

My father used to tape 'Top of the Pops' for me every Sunday, and I would sit in my bedroom, write down the lyrics of all of my favourite songs, and sing along. I was always singing in my bedroom with a hairbrush.

I suppose I don't have to work, but I do love working. I class myself as a working-class girl, and I've never stopped working. When I'm offered shows here, there and the other, I do an awful lot because I feel other people would love to be offered what I'm offered; who am I to say no? I'm definitely working class, and I always will be.

I love watching movies with happy endings or anything with Steve Martin or stuff like that.

I am itching like hell to play America because I know that if I did the show over there, they would love it.

I love Tina Turner. I'm one of Tina Turner's biggest fans. Tina Turner was a big influence on me to become a singer. A role model and in a way she gave me back my confidence in choosing my material.
