I'll cover you (reprise)

Although we were good and all, when I was singing “I’ll cover you reprise”, I did have a bit of a struggle as I was riffing which I soon learnt that it was a big no no, especially for my character. Seeing as I’m playing Collins, most of the actors that tend to play him are black as it’s something that just is rather common with his character. This slightly means it doesn’t look as cringy when he sings some of his songs due to the fact that he’s got a deeper and more blues/jazz voice to me. So as a way to resolve this, I came to the conclusion that I  should maybe hold notes intead of going all over the place with them.

I had an idea that when I sing this song, the stage black and then when I start to sing a light from the back will come on forming some sort of shadow and then when I sing the lines "I'll be your shelter", the lights in front of me will rise. By doing this I feel that the lights can show that angel is in a better place but then it shows real life and how everyone's dealing with it.
