Sister Act Quote
Delores: [at her first choir rehearsal, the choir sings a chord badly with Mary Patrick singing an octave above everyone else] Okay! Okay! Okay! Very nice! [to Mary Patrick]
Delores: Um, sister can you just slide over here please? That's a powerful instrument you have there!
Sister Mary Patrick: Thank you.
Delores: But I think it's probably a good idea if we bring you down out of the rafters, everybody wants to be close to God I'm just not sure you can do it vocally so I need you to sing an octave below where you've been singing.
Sister Mary Patrick: Okey dokey!
Delores: And Sister Mary Robert, can you just come, yeah, come on over. I noticed that you're moving your mouth but nothing's coming out so I'd like to hear just you by yourself if you don't mind. Sister Alma, can you give me an A please? [pause]
Delores: ALMA! Check your battery. Can you give me an A please. [Mary Robert sings in a whisper]
Delores: Ok, try this. Close your eyes. Visualize yourself in room full of people, lots of silverware, people talking loud, dropping stuff, drunks, women with trays going 'whadda ya gonna have?'. Your voice has to carry across the din, you have to get up over all of that to be heard in the back of the room where I'm sitting, listening, straining to hear you. Ok? Keep that in your mind while we do this.
