Bette Midler On Singing And Performing: “I don’t like to scream anymore. And now I’m much more interested in the whole process of finding a song, learning it, arranging it with a band. I’ve sort of become a student. Growing up, I was always on the outside, wanting to be paid attention to. And I was so anxious to become a star, I would do just about anything. I had to satisfy those feelings first. Having done that, now I’m just happy in the the creation of art.” (The Record, 1994)
