Etymology
The word 'crooned' originates from the verb 'croon', which has its roots in the early 20th century. It is believed to be derived from the Scottish word 'crone', meaning to sing or chant in a soft, murmuring way. The usage of 'croon' became especially popular with the advent of vocalists who employed a smooth, soothing style of singing, particularly in popular music. It evokes a sense of warmth and intimacy, often associated with lullabies and romantic ballads. Over time, crooning has evolved, influencing various music genres and leading to its solidification in American culture, particularly through iconic artists who favored this tender vocal approach.
