"Christmases past, my sister Carolyn and I - we'd been waiting for Santa all night. Nothing! Where is..." — Aretha Franklin

You could call my piano my trademark, or one of my trademarks.

I didn't really want to sing at first, but my dad insisted that I do.

I've met my share of guys who have insulted and assaulted my intelligence with their stories and games. I say hello and goodbye!

I'm really an old-fashioned girl - I like to be romanced.
