I remember when I thought of singing as the bit that went between the guitar playing - something I couldn't wait to get out of the way. Singing was originally like a chore that I didn't really enjoy. ↗

It's not easy waking up every single morning knowing what you're going to put your body through and having to do it. We don't have days off. ↗

I do catch myself driving around singing tunes, but I don't know if it's necessarily show tunes. ↗
