You are a very strange creature by way of a friend! -always wanting me to play and sing before anybody and everybody!

作为一个朋友你真是一个奇怪的人——总是希望我在任何人和所有人面前弹奏和唱歌！

Even if I forget the lyrics, I calm down immediately by saying "let's sing together," and then the audience will give me some hints. It's tricky.

即便是忘了歌词，我也会很自然地对观众说“我们一起来唱吧”，然后由观众把我忘掉的歌词带出来，这是个小技巧。

So humiliated was I by music teachers who made me "sing" alone in front of the class that I dropped music at the first opportunity and haven't participated in anything musical for over 35 years.

记得小时候，音乐老师们让我在全班同学面前独“唱”，让我觉得很丢脸。 所以后来一有机会，我就躲开音乐，35 年来从来没有参加过任何音乐活动。
