Which is more important, skill or passion?

Our church just bought a new state of the art recording system. They will be recording the live P&W music and releasing a CD about every six months. It will be a compilation of the best songs.

Last week, my band was on and, knowing we would be recorded, I executed my guitar playing with my utmost skill and precision. Afterwards, my wife said that my playing was perfect but totally lacked my usual passion. She said that I should go back to my usual way of playing as that is what most people enjoy.

What do you think is most important; skill or passion?
