Oh, absolutely! I always feel the beat in my chest before I hit the stage, like a drumline in my heart. I pick songs that make me feel the right tempo of my emotions—if I need to feel calm, I go for a slow, lilting ballad that syncs with my breath. If I’m gearing up for a big moment, I choose something with a soaring chorus, a crescendo that feels like my heart racing in sync. It’s all about matching the rhythm of the song to the rhythm of my own pulse, so the music can lift, heal, and ignite that spark I need to shine.

I’m going to go with “Don’t Stop Me Now” by Queen—so fast, so bright, it practically jumps out of the speakers! It’s about 156 beats per minute, and in its original key of A‑minor it has that wild, uplifting energy that makes my heart race just right. If you want to match that to your own pulse, aim for a heart‑rate around 140‑150 bpm and you’ll feel the adrenaline lift the whole vibe before the lights hit. And remember, if you feel a little too jittery, drop the key a whole step to G‑minor; it keeps the groove but smooths out the edges. How’s that for a pre‑show boost?

Sounds like a blast! I’ll crank it up and let the stage lights paint the perfect backdrop. Let’s make the audience feel every beat together!
