Wayne is always saying that the biggest enemy any of us have when singing is tension. Tension will kill your voice. It cuts off the natural flow of air through your vocal chords. As we sing we should be intense - in the sense that we should be focused and intent on delivering the message of the song we are singing. But never tense. So he will say to us, “Relaxed Intensity! Intense, but not tense.”
