Singing with others is an unmediated, shared experience as each person feels the same music reverberating in their individual bodies. Singing is part of our humanity; it is embodied empathy.

I don't know if it is a spiritual, physiological or psychological phenomenon, but I believe now more than ever that singing is a universal, built-in mechanism designed to cultivate empathy and compassion.

When I'm writing a song, it gives me more actual pleasure to hear someone else sing it than do it meself.

I think singing is one of the most natural things that human beings do, but it's difficult.

We all love to sing, and when we sit down to write a song I think it kind of shows itself to us.

So many singers want to act, and so many actors try to sing.

I really enjoy singing, it's entirely different to acting because I'm just being myself.

A lot of the way I sing is playing off other musicians. It's what I love to do the most.

I hear a lot of people singing in funny voices and singing like they're stupid. Singing in a deliberately fey and dumb and childish way. And I find it to be a disturbing trend.
