Listen to the silence
When you sing a song that contains bits of silence, then it is quite difficult to come out above the daily verbal competition.
I made a big mistake, a wrong choice by getting loud and trying to be heard. Not trusting that anyone who didn’t hear me would come closer and listen. It would’ve been better to stick to my own score.
I had a good reason to raise my voice, but I shouted while I rather would have whispered.
Funny, a vicious circle tends to become more vicious when you try to step out of it. But this may be an interpretation and not reality.
