The late, great BB King was once asked why he always stopped playing while singing. He answer: 'I got stupid fingers, baby. Stupid, stupid fingers.'

It makes me appreciate people like James Taylor and Elton John all the more. My hands have to be going on all muscle memory so that I can focus on vocal pitch and breath. Not that I'm a good singer. Those two and many others can let it fly as if their hands are an extension of their voice.
