I don't think anyone can stay down too long when they get their blood pumping and their brain full of oxygenated blood.. If you don't like to sing, do some exercise, or even deep breathing.. Just get that oxygen in... It's amamzing what a bit of heavy breathing will do for your outlook!
It is funny you should say that because I have been singing in the shower lately. I haven't done that in over a year. I sang to my 3 year old today while I was putting him down for a nap. First he started by covering his ears, I think he was trying to be funny, then he put his hands down and settled in. That means he stuck his finger in his mouth and brought up his blankie to rub against his face. Is this the biggest compliment a singer can get or what?
