Carries a tune
Sings is the third-person singular present tense of sing.
When someone sings, they produce musical sounds with their voice, typically following a melody.
Birds sing, as do people in the shower, at karaoke bars, or professionally on stage.
Figuratively, things that make pleasant sounds may be said to sing: The kettle sings when the water boils.
If something sings to you, it resonates deeply or appeals strongly.
