In response to your comment, yes I still sing.
I sang just a moment ago actually...
I wish I was better though.
(but art isn't worth it if you think you're amazing all the time is it? or at least it loses it's point(s) or essense...either way, something isn't right if I'm not being critical of myself to a point.)
Ever go through stages where sometimes, sonically you just feel, all off?
I found out this interesting thing the other day that I never much thought of....singing 'healthily'
does not always produce 'nice' sounds. That intrigued me because so often we want to hear 'nice' sounds...but maybe they're not always correct? Truth, lies and everything in between...I don't want to get started on this topic or it will drag on...>.<
Thank you for calling today. I knew it (or hoped) it was you when the phone rang...and it was fun discussing a 'text' with you...haha like in Extension...

I think that as artists there is a search for perfection because we've seen the potential beauty of everything that our art stands for. But as we perform and even while we practice perhaps it is better to think only of the sound and let that live than to worry about our part in it. Because in the end music is living and will always be imperfect to us unless we stop and remember its purpose.
Still, you're most right... you need to be critical of yourself. Be your own teacher and always remember that music has existed before you and will continue to exist after you - you can never be too good.
Can you sing both healthily and nicely?
I had been meaning to call you for a long time but was constantly worried that I would not have anything to say. So if I rambled a bit.. that is why - trying to make up 'just in case' for any silence that might of thought to intrude.
Hope you are well as always.
