A Quote by Elton John

I've watched other people singing, I've become a much better singer. I've become a singer that plays the piano instead of a piano player that sings. — © Elton John
I've watched other people singing, I've become a much better singer. I've become a singer that plays the piano instead of a piano player that sings.
My original dream was to become a singer-songwriter, so I sent a video of myself playing the piano and singing to all the big agencies.
I'm a piano player and singer who can't play piano very well or sing very well. That isn't a recipe for success. I have to get better.
It's kind of great being a group without a lead singer, because the possibilities are sky high. Odd things become the lead singer, noises become the lead singer. It actually makes the thing much more flexible.
I cut the scene out, but there was a moment where Christoph Waltz plays the piano in 'Django [Unchained]' - Jamie [Foxx] is a magnificent piano-player but there's never a moment where Django plays the piano.
Paul Sinha is a very good piano player and singer.
My first instrument is piano, I play some piano and guitar. So my solo music is more like real singer/songwriter type stuff.
The piano is just a different animal. It's expensive, it's big, it's heavy, and it doesn't fit in the mix easily. Everyone grew up with a piano in their living room, so rocking out on the piano was accessible - it wasn't an upper-class thing. Now pianos have become very much a piece of furniture.
I would be happy at a piano bar, singing. I just want to home in on being the best singer I can be.
I think I've become a much better singer and a much better player. Years and years of playing a couple of hours every day will do that.
When I started as a kid, I wanted to be a piano player and songwriter. I only became a singer by accident.
All of my kids are into music. My older daughter plays guitar, piano, sings. My young son, he sings.
I started out as a pianist and singer in gay and piano bars - they were the only places I could get a job singing show tunes.
I can play piano, and I write everything on piano, but I don't really feel like a piano player, necessarily.
It's much easier to work on other people's music and play in other people's bands as a guitar player instead of being the main songwriter and singer. That's a really big job to do that.
I'm not a pop singer; I'm not a jazz singer. And I know I sing like not a whole lot of people do; I also know that a lot of other people act like I do. And better than I do. But what informs the singing is the acting. They're not separate from each other.
I've never felt anything that moves me as much as my piano. I'm an emotional player. I don't really like people. I prefer my piano to people. It's totally reliable and it's alive. I can hear what it's saying.
