“I fell in love with the song and thought it was written just for me. Turns out it was written just for my sister.” (*Dee Dee recorded ‘Alfie’ 1.5 years before Dionne, but the song was released after Dionne’s version, for which she received a Grammy)

“Dionne sings taut, like a doubled-up fist. I’m more relaxed in my singing, even though it is strong. I don’t think I want to tighten up like that, to reach the pitch she has to reach mentally. If I start to do that, it may influence me – I might start sounding like her. I have my own sound. I just want people to know it when they hear it.”

– Dee Dee Warwick
