It is important, even if you performed a role the night before, to think, 'This is the first time this is going to happen.'

The first time I sang with David Daniels... I had never performed with a countertenor before. That first time was magic, it was so beautiful. And he's such a great artist.

I was in fittings for the first costume even before I knew I was even going to be 'Deathlok.'

The first time we performed as a duo, we had already been playing together in various situations.

I did 'Showtime at the Apollo' when I was 10, and it was the first time that I'd ever performed on TV, and it felt great.

You don't have to get it right the first time.
