RDP- Sunday – SING
When I was in college, I had a nice “little” voice which could occasionally sound pretty good — on a good day if something was in the right key. I have a deep voice for a girl and as I was a music major for a couple of years, I got used to hearing “girls on the right, Marilyn and the boys on the left.” My voice fits better with the guys.
As I got older, I apparently spent too much time shouting and lost most of the voice I had, but I still love the sound of singing, especially duets. There’s something about the interweaving of high and low voices that is a delight to my ears.
I’ve heard that singing in a choir is also very therapeutic.

I really can’t sing anymore. I sprained my vocal cords and never took the time to let them heal properly. I was working, I was a mother, and whispering for a year (a YEAR) wasn’t going to work for me. So I have good moments, but I really can’t sing more than a couple of bars before my voice fogs up.

I’m not in any group now and don’t plan to be. But I can sing just don’t have energy.

I liked singing in groups, though being an alto, I never got to sing the melody. I was also the middle of the sandwich (boring!). Sopranos (among women) have all the fun.

Never get the melody. Always the sandwich filling.

Even when I had “a voice” it was a very little voice. I never had the makings of a great singer. I admire it, but it’s not one of my talents.

I was the lead at school and I was supposed to be the lead in the play but my mother was in a head on that day and I was at the hospital instead. I can sing and sing well and I loved it.

I used to love to sing, but love to listen too… My Mom and Dad were always singing duets–your post brings back those sweet memories!

There something really heartwarming about the intermingling of two voices.
