Well, I have some suggestions for you. I did have this experience, thought about it, and I fixed it.

What you are asking is how to play a slow song musically, artistically, emotionally, and dramatically. What you have to do is to think where you are. As you play the slow song, you have to imagine that you are in some place that fits your feelings for the slow song. If the slow snog is sad, very sad, then be sad and play sad. If the slow song is beautiful or awesome in some way like God, then play the song beautifully and think about God.

And besides getting the spirit, playing the instrument properly is important, too. We are both physical and spiritual. They must work together.

When I play some slow songs, I only think of one thing, and that is God's love.

Try putting in a lot of dynamics, cresendos, ect. Get into the mood of it, decide if it's happy, serious, sad. You HAVE to know. Maybe...

Well, that first part almost sounded impressive, like I know what im talking about, hope it helps.
