Sign. Not sing.

The four tildes (and the three and five tildes variants) are meant for talk pages. They're part of MediaWiki. The comments don't use MediaWiki, so it parses it as exactly what it is: four tildes.

Even before the shift to UCP, there was no need to sign comments as the system already did that.
