“I watch artists say they wrote all these songs and don't mention anybody else who was involved, and that's fine. I don't expect an artist to give me credit.

“Every improv must be song specific. It has to grow organically out of the particular elements involved or it's just glib self-expression.

“I get an audience personally involved in a song - because I'm involved myself. It's not something I do deliberately: I can't help myself.

“I have always considered myself a fast learner. I try to retain and absorb as much information and knowledge about the [music] business as I can.

I run my own social media, record, and try to vocal produce myself as much as possible, write my own songs, style myself, and learn the business side.

“Musically, though, you're a character and you're singing a song. If you're not your own character, you're the character in the song, most of the time. Even blues musicians, a lot of them who were the most realistic, at times, they were singing a song and portraying a character in the song. There's something to be said for getting involved in the emotion of a song, too, with the characters.” IfsSaidCharacterSongEmotionInvolvedMusicianSingingRealisticPortrayingBlues Music Author:Jack White
“Being singer is different than being an actor, where you call up sources from your own experience that you can apply to whatever Shakespeare drama you're in. But an actor is pretending to be somebody, a singer isn't. And that's the difference. Singers today have to sing songs where there's very little emotion involved. That and the fact that they have to sing hit records from years gone by doesn't leave a lot of room for any kind of intelligent creativity.” YearsKindLittlesDifferentFactsTodaySongActorsDifferencesRoomsEmotionCreativityGoneRecordsSourceInvolvedDramaIntelligentSingersPretendingYears Gone By Author:Bob Dylan
