Thread Name: Why We Sing, Part II
Subject: RE: Why We Sing, Part II
Because I always have!
I was planning a project and one of the parts of this was - 'Making singing part of everyday life' I had trouble actually understanding that it wasn't for everybody. When I talked to my kids about it they said that the kids who come to our house to play think I am mad / fun / funny 'cos I make up songs rather than talk, sometimes it's opera, sometimes it's church choir, sometimes it's rock n roll etc, but it's a hell of a lot more fun than just talking! I have yet to work out how to get others who dont to try it, but maybe I'll just sing the whole workshop!
No, really, I do love to sing, and I do tend to sing instead of talking, but I am relatively normal otherwise (apart from playing the bodhran - usually in time!)
