Subject: RE: What's Sentimental and what's Sickening?
of course a singer/performer has to use his/her "power" to move the audience. And of course, to a degree, that power can be developed, practiced and improved upon. If not; 1) there'd be little live music to go see. (because) 2) the performer would only perform when "moved by the spirit" so to speak.

The spontaneous performance from the heart comes from hours upon hours of practiced sincerity.
