I've always felt that signed songs are way more interesting to hearing people than to deaf or hh people. I know there's some deaf people that like signed songs, but, in my experience, is not most of them. And even the ones who say it's alright, I feel they say it without much emotion.
Especially on video. I think some kind of rythm can be transmitted if synchronized during live concerts, where the vibrations are clear and strong. It's usually very focused on words, so to me it seems like what a hearing person would feel by watching a lyrics/karaoke video with no sound or reading a poem written only with emojis. To me it seems sooooo detached from the music experience...
I appreciate the visibility though. And at least this interpreter makes quite an effort to communicate a bit more than just words.
