It suppose it has something to do with the rhythm.
Yes, and maybe the fact that there are existing lyrics so they're not trying to form concepts and grope for the correct words to express them. Though that could easily be tested by having them recite a poem or something without music. Does anyone know if stammering also stops when reciting memorized words, or does music have to be a component?
