What I am trying to get it is not so much that the emotion is expressed through the singing of it but that the singer is feeling it and that feeling adds another dimension that is not apparent when listening to it.

I think it happens to a lot of listeners when a song is emotionally moving to them. They may think it's the greatest song in the world and maybe it's not that great but their own emotion is enhancing their perception of it.

Let's assume that the song was done really well - very expressively done and listeners respond to it, but when the singer just listens to a recording of it, no matter how well done it was, suddenly the song doesn't sound as fantastic as it felt while singing it.

LOL, maybe that only happens to me. Endorphin rush or something.
