Miming the words...

This is not something you might have seen on the older style music television shows...
You may also have experienced this when listening to music, or reading something quietly from a book...

Basically we mime to the words, both vocally and through the our inner voice.

When I say we mime the words, I mean that we mouth the words (either vocally or from the inner voice) such that it is a much quieter version, like whispering aloud.

The most interesting part of this, I find, is that the mind does it too (through the inner voice), and that silence of the mind may be brought about through a very gentle verison of miming.

Who feels the need to sing aloud (all the time) when the words have already been sung?
