Useful detail

Performance tip

Keep the verses relaxed and let the chorus carry the biggest energy. Prioritize clear phrasing and the story over extra vocal runs.

Recommendation

Should you sing it?

Choose “S&M” when you want a emotional song that fits a female mid singer. It works best when you know the chorus before stepping up. Pick another song when its style or range does not match the room.
