Another thought in this regard: I have found that it was much easier
to tap into emotion when sing COMIC rather than serious songs.
Instead of trying to find really sad, angry, or even happy (but not
funny) songs, you may want to start with FUNNY songs. I suggest this
because there is less of a sense, with these songs, that one must be
absolutely 'realistic' or 'honest' in one's presentation of the
emotions. You can ham up funny more easily - with less subtlety to
worry about - than you can serious.
