As a singer, I float around. I'm kind of scatty, bouncing around a lot. I try to adapt to what's going on around me in the song and the arrangement.

When I sing, trouble can sit right on my shoulder and I don't even notice.
I enjoy the more floaty, exposed, elegant singing.
I have never sung a whole song on my own before and I am not the best dancer in the world, but I would rather try and fall than not not try at all.
The more I push myself to really live and really experience things and step outside of my comfort zone, the more the songs are allowed to flow.
I keep these songs in my head until I get behind the microphone. I never spend more than 30 or 40 minutes singing the vocal or it will sound mechanical. There are always mistakes, but it's about feeling more than being perfect.
Singing aloud leaves you with a sense of levity and contentedness.
Sometimes you sing songs about the way you want to feel more than the way you actually do feel.
Since I have been singing for so many years, I don't always need to approach a song quite so laboriously and meticulously.
A lot of the way I sing is playing off other musicians. It's what I love to do the most.
Attempting to write vocal oriented songs to me felt like going through the motions and if you are going to go through the motions you might as well just do any gig that caused you to do repetitive motions like banging a hammer or serving fries.
