Someone once asked me why people sing. I answered that they sing for many of the same reasons the birds sing.

They sing to complain of how grievously they have been wronged, and how to avoid it in the future. They sing to help themselves execute a job of work. They sing so the subsequent generations won’t forget what the current generation endured, or dreamed, or delighted in.
