Just Sing What's On The Page

"Just sing what's on the page." The advice that made me feel slapped across the face—until I realized I'd been confusing inspiration with artistry for years.

This episode explores why learning music from recordings is like playing telephone, why your "artistic choices" might just be accidents you kept doing, and the framework I use to decide when changes actually serve the character. Plus: how I caught myself making the same mistake with School of Rock nearly 20 years after learning this lesson.
