Singing, is it haram in this case?

I have a question. Can you sing an english song from the internet without bad words and without anyone in the room with no instruments? I need a very straight forward answer, my sect. is Salafi. I read you can't sing because it takes you out of reality and the remembrance of Allah, but I want to sing to help me feel better and if it's about the remembrance, wouldn't studying be bad? Since you don't necessarily remember Allah 24/7 unless you want to pray. But is it bad if there is no bad words, no audience, or no instruments?
