It is a job requirement as a singer that you have a certain amount of shamelessness in your personality. At a professional level, it is absolutely expected of you. No shrinking violets there. People literally wonder "How good of a singer can this dude be if he doesn't think he is the best singer ever?". It's pretty messed up, but it is the nature of the beast.
And if you screw up, you have to have a short memory like a defensive back or an offensive lineman.
People who know that I play in a band and sing backup are always asking me to sing shit.
Especially when I talk about a new song we might play.
Maybe it's just me.
