One of the many reasons I love to listen to music is to get inspired, feel good and learn to improve my singing abilities... A lot of songs have succeeded in making me feel these ways when listening to them. I've come to learn a lot more about music than I did before and that is thanks to the opportunities presented to me by Hive musical communities.

Yes, I agree music is such a fantastic vehicle for good feelings or for dealing with more difficult emotions, it is rare when music does not help. Well don you for being able to sing too, I would empty a room if I tried to sing, but it doesn't stop me from singing at the top of my voice when I am in the car.... alone!!

Carrie Underwood has serious passion, I wouldn't be familiar with her at all, but she seems like a nice soul with a good voice.
