In today's lesson we began to learn seasons of love, including harmonies. I already knew the song so I was quite comfortable singing it. The lyrics ask what the proper way is to quantify the value of a year in human life, concluding in the chorus that the most effective means is to "measure in love". Since four of the lead characters either have HIV or AIDS, the song is often associated with World AIDS Day and AIDS awareness. While singing, I was making sure I was focussing on supporting my voice from my diaphragm and breathing from my diaphragm rather than my chest. I was told there was an improvement vocal wise in terms of where I'm singing from. I think this song, for Mark, is all about him supporting his friends with AIDS, and he is just happy that everyone is together at such a desperate time.
