Quindon Tarver Citas

• I even have some stories of people telling me how that song has changed their life, how it got them through hard times, how it saved their life when they were on the verge of thinking of doing the worst. That just really amazes me, that that movie [Romeo + Juliet] and that part in the movie are still having a huge effect on people's lives today.

• Estuve en el set [Romeo + Julieta] quizá una hora durante dos días. Fue en una gran catedral de Ciudad de México. Recuerdo que estaba en el balcón, yo estaba delante y había un coro detrás de mí. Delante de mí había una barandilla de cemento, y yo pensaba: "¡Dios mío!". Porque yo era un niño entonces, y yo soy como, "Estamos un poco alto ... Espero no volcar", porque soy muy torpe.

• There's a video that's been floating around on YouTube where [Baz Luhrmann says], "We were looking for a guy that sounded like a young Stevie Wonder but much more we got a guy that sounded like a younger version of Aretha Franklin. His name's Quindon Tarver." I was just like, "Wow, to be compared to her."

• [Baz Luhrmann] is very serious - he wants it done and he wants it done accurately. He was in the studio actually when I recorded "Everybody's Free." I remember meeting him and him being amazed by my voice.

• Tenía que actuar en Dallas, en el Hotel W. Estaba con mi mejor amigo y entré en la zona donde me reuniría con el equipo. Entonces entró mi mejor amigo y me dijo: "La chica de recepción me preguntó: '¿Se llama Quindon? Lo conozco, es ese tipo de Romeo + Julieta, soy uno de sus grandes fans'". Yo estaba como, ¿cómo me reconoce de entonces a ahora? Me quedé asombrada, porque tengo 34 años, fue hace 20, ¿y cómo me reconoce?

• [Romeo + Juliet] is relevant when Hamlet and all of that was out, when [William] Shakespeare wrote it. It's relevant now. It's not a shocker, but then it is. I guess so because I'm in it, so it's shocking that it's still on TV. People are still talking about it. Hey, I'm still getting royalty checks from it. It's amazing to me and I hope it continues forever.

• I didn't see that at all. I just saw everyone having a good time and everyone having fun [on set of Romeo + Juliet]. I didn't see anyone having any spats or disagreements. If they did, they hid it very well. But as far as I saw, it was a positive vibe. It was positive energy.

• Todo lo que me pasaba por la cabeza era: "El mes pasado, más o menos, estaba volando a Los Ángeles y las cosas estaban empezando con la grabación de mi álbum, y entonces aquí está, wow, boom, aquí estoy en una película". ¡Y además con Leonardo DiCaprio! Toda la experiencia fue genial y ese momento fue muy épico para mí.

• [Leonardo DiCaprio] invited me into his dressing room, and then we went into his hotel room where we stayed. We shared caramel popcorn. I think that was the coolest thing, sharing popcorn with this movie star. And then we wrestled! I always share that story with people.

• I still have so much gratitude for being part of something so great that is still around 20 years later, played in school and still getting the recognition that it gets. It is shocking, but then like I said, it's timeless so it isn't.
