when you sing a song, what is more important?
the way you enunciate the words?
or the accent you use?
or the feeling you input into the song?
well, i think the last point is the most important. obviously.
i would say i sing quite well?
but recently, it's just been a bit harder to sing.
not that i'm having sore-throat or what,
but i just don't feel what i'm singing.
as i watch American Idol, or The Voice,
over the years, one thing i learn is to,
"Sing with your heart."
"Sing with emotions."
i thought i understood what they meant.
but truly understanding it, was not till a week or two ago.
i had to do cover with a friend, 'I won't give up' by Jason Mraz,
and while doing it, i encountered a few problems.
pronunciation and whatnot,
but also with the feelings that isn't there.
i tried and tried, to feeeeeeel the song,
but somehow, it just wasn't getting through.
i was stuck.
and that made me realized that,
my feelings and emotions are now,
Level : Neutral
It's there, but ain't there. paradox.
i really don't know why...
maybe cause i'm numb to whatever comes my way,
or maybe just tired of feeling, and being all emotional.
oh well,
lesson this week:
"Do everything with feelings"
