Charring and giving voice, full of energy (8)

I believe the answer is:

singeing

'charring' is the definition.
(char can mean to burn or singe)

'giving voice full of energy' is the wordplay.
'giving voice' becomes 'singing' (to give voice is to sing).
'full of' indicates putting letters inside.
'energy' becomes 'e' (physics symbol as in E=mc2).
'singing' enclosing 'e' is 'SINGEING'.

'and' is the link.

(Another definition for singeing that I've seen is " Scorching".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
