Percy Sledge Quotes

1. (on his song "When a Man Loves a Woman") When I came into the studio, I was shaking like a leaf. I was scared. I hummed it all my life, even when I was picking and chopping cotton in the fields. I just wailed out in the woods and let the echo come back to me.  






2. (on songwriting royalties) Worst decision I ever made. But I am not at all bitter. I figure if God wanted me to do what I did, and say what I did to tell those guys they could have the song, then I'll leave it that away.

3. (on his song "When a Man Loves a Woman") The granddaddy to all of my songs. The boss of all of my songs. I have great respect for that song. Always will.
