"Music is a very powerful ' tool that can change a person's outlook," she said. "Everything we sing touches our emotions and, hopefully, the emotions of those who listen. Our songs let people know who we are and what we believe in. They are a chance to sha*e with people what we feel." The duo has been honored with 30 major industry award nominations since they first began recording together in 1987. Be Be (Benjamin) and CeCe (Priscilla) Winans were born in Detroit, Michigan, the seventh and eighth of 10 children. "We're two people who love music," says CeCe, "and we're singing to try to help as many people as we can. That's who we are ? just two young people try ing to bring a smile upon people's faces."
