Just curious: are long notes signed in ASL when interpreting songs? *hypothetical question, NOT asking how to interpret songs*
Disclaimer! I'm not asking how to sign a song or how lyrics would be interpreted. I'm just wondering how (or if) the general structure of a song/notes are translated in ASL signing of songs.
Example: Whitney Houston with "I Will Always Love You" and the iconic "And I-I-I-I-I..." It's only one word but it takes up a bit more time than other words in the song. Does that make a difference in signing?
Or the chorus of Hello by Adele. When she sings "Hello from the other side," the word 'side' is sung as a longer note. Hypothetically, would an interpreter at an Adele concert, however the song is interpreted, hold a sign for the same amount of time as the note being sung?
Or am I overthinking this and nothing is done differently lol.
This is simply a random shower thought, so if there's a different subreddit I should have asked this in, please let me know! Thank you 🖤
