About this Quote

This quote by Bernie Worrell speaks to the concept of being comfy in one's own skin. He acknowledges that people appreciate his singing voice, but he is not comfy with the concept of having a microphone in front of his face. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for the idea of remaining in the spotlight and needing to carry out for an audience. It might likewise be interpreted as an indication of humbleness, as Worrell is not looking for the attention of others, however rather is content with his own capabilities. It could also be analyzed as an indication of self-doubt, as Worrell is not confident enough to perform in front of an audience. Whatever the interpretation, this quote speaks to the concept of being comfy with oneself and not needing the approval of others.
