Style of singing is of course subjective, however it seems that traditional singers sang the songs as they would speak them, should we then approach traditional songs in the same way, as we would speak them. I believe we should , but I am interested to hear other peoples points of view,
this also raise the question of how people accompany traditional songs, bearing in mind they were often unaccompanied, should we make sure that the accompaniment is an accompaniment and does not end up as an accompaniment dictating rhythym and forcing vocals to follow instrument, rather than other way round
