I close my eyes when I sing so I can feel the song better.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I keep my eyes closed a lot when I'm singing because sometimes it's distracting to see people.
When I sing, I close my eyes. If I see a feather, everything is fine. Without this image in my mind, the sound is not 'truthful' enough, and I must begin again. I have to.
Sometimes I'll get to the end of a song, open my eyes and there's all these faces peering at me. It's quite horrifying.
Sometimes in the middle of the night, I wake up with a song in my head, and I have to finish it so I can fall back asleep.
When I feel comfortable, I just like to sing and hum, and I don't even know I'm doing it. But sometimes someone will come over to me like, 'I love that song you were singing, but it's distracting.'
When I sing, I have a sense of peace, I feel like my brain turns off, and I become the core person of who I am - the essence of me. I feel connected to whatever is out there. It's almost like I leave my body and get to watch.
Being in music forever, I have good pitch, so I know when I'm singing in or out of tune. But the key to really good singing is just relaxing and thinking about what the song is.
Sometimes you sing songs about the way you want to feel more than the way you actually do feel.
I feel what I sing, and I sing what I feel. Really, that's all I can do.
I like to see people's eyes when I'm singing to them.
