Contrary anecdote: My grandparents are over 90, but they're lifelong members of a religious community that considers music and dancing sinful.
Personally, I quite enjoy singing and music, but it seems strange that an attention-seeking activity would be correlated with longer life.
- ghostpepper 4y agoThere's nothing inherently attention seeking about singing - I'd guess that most people who sing only do so when they're alone because they don't feel they're "good enough" to sing publicly.
