Chris,
Thanks for writing. That’s a great idea… definitely going to try it out and consider it. I appreciate your thoughtfulness.
Best wishes,

I write melodies with my voice and always check words for singability while I’m figuring out which notes go best with them. I end up singing them scores of times, but it’s a productive two-fer, and I don’t even need an app for it.

Would you consider “Where taxis won’t go” ? Gets you 2 ‘Wh’ sounds and you’re not using ‘don’t’ twice.

Sally,
I’m not surprised to hear of the correlation, but I’m glad to hear it from you; thanks. Who would know better than you!?
Best wishes,
Tony

You speak of many of the reasons behind the vocal method I developed, Sing Like You Speak. When you really say the words, you are communicating.
I’ve had a blast teaching singer-songwriters because as they discover some of what you’ve discovered, Tony, their songwriting expands.
Thanks for sharing your discovery with us!
breathe,
Sally Morgan
