Loud is relative!

As a child I used to sing.  Not like a song bird – up in the morning with a chirp in my mouth.  I sang off and on.  I enjoyed good melodies and had a mother who pushed all her children to “do music.”

I soon learned that I was unusual.  I could sing louder and longer than a lot of people around me. 

I still do.  Which is why singing the national anthem is a real pain for me.  People swivel their heads.  My wife moves over two seats.  The chosen anthem singer wonders who’s competing with them!

When I sing a solo at a function, the sound person usually sets the microphone at “off” or close to it.

So, if you are with me and I burst into song . . .  Please – don’t cover your ears or swivel your head!  Just act natural! 

And, for my sake, pull  your earplugs out after I’m out of the building.
