Difference between Static and Singleton Pattern

I wanted to blog about this for a while, b'cos I found many folks not being able to answer this question during the interview process.  Few differences worth mentioning are

• Singletons can implement interfaces and inherit from other classes (while static classes cannot).
• Singletons can be extended (used as a subclass) while static classes cannot.
• There is only one instance in case of Singletons but there is none in case of Static classes.
• Singletons can be passed around as a parameter to function calls but you can't do that with a Static class.
