Thread Name: Do you need to *believe* what you sing?
Subject: RE: Do you need to *believe* what you sing?
As someone who sings almost exclusively old traditional songs, it would be hard for me to find anything in my repertoire that I actually believe. The world has changed a lot since those songs were first sung. It is important to sing the song convincingly and with fervor, of course. But that is true of anything one does in any endeavor.

Breezy, I don't feel like a liar and a cheat. It's nice that you're willing to share your opinions, but it would be easier for others to pay attention to them if you voiced them as such instead of as certainties.
