According to Pastor Weedon at his blog...
I'm convinced that no one ever offered a better insight into the Church's penchant for chanting than J. R. R. Tolkein in The Lord of the Rings, when the hobbits are in the house of Bombadil:
"The guests suddenly became aware that they were singing merrily, as if it was easier and more natural than talking."
Song is the native tongue of heaven; speaking is so of the earth.
