I started dieting. I dieted dieted dieted and tried all the diets and I would lose and then I would go back to normal eating and would put it on and then some.
Both my grandmothers had upright pianos and I just knew how to play since I was a child. Nobody taught me. I sounded like a grown-up and then I learned how to read music. I played so well by ear I could fool the teacher to believe I could play the notes. She'd make the mistake of playing the song once and I could play it.
