Singing is about telling a story. When you are onstage, you get to be your own self... When acting, you're someone else.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Singing is a way of releasing an emotion that you sometimes can't portray when you're acting. And music moves your soul, so music is the source of the most intense emotions you can feel. When you hear a song and you're acting it's incredible. But when you're singing a song and you're acting it's even more incredible.
I really enjoy singing, it's entirely different to acting because I'm just being myself.
Singing really is acting. In a lot of ways, it's much more personal. I love music, and being able to work on that is amazing.
In some ways, I've always approached singing as acting, and the voice is just like a way of carrying the song.
Singing is just another outlet to express what I feel and to show everyone who I really am. I really don't talk about my personal life that much in interviews because that's my life, but with music, the way I write explains who I am.
There are plenty of actors who've caught the singing bug and vice versa, but with musical performers, you're constantly a persona - which is something I love about acting: you play a character, you leave and you get to be yourself again.
Singing and acting on a show is like theater; it doesn't get any better.
I really enjoy singing and I really enjoy acting, but singing I've been doing since I was really young.
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.
When I'm acting, I'm in a different place, singing is the last thing on my mind, and when I'm on stage, there's no acting at all involved, not even presentation, it's just who I am.
