Or hum?

Or play the drums with your mouth, creating sick fills that even Neil Peart couldn't master?

Or recite favorite movie lines?

Or simply wash it and get on with your day?

I tend to sing to the shampoo bottles. This mornin' it was "You Still Believe In Me"

Hell no, my entire family could hear me if I did. My 11 year old brother does this with usually AC/DC, though.

no. i don't sing in the shower.
the car, however, is my own private stage.
(and my passengers are sometimes my captive audience.)

I sing everywhere!

My favourite singing tune at the moment is the theme from 'Wonder Woman', although I don't know the correct lyrics so I just kind of guess at them.

I've posted before about playing tunes on your teeth while you're brushing them.

Everyone thought I was insane.

I'm surprised someone like Peter Gabriel hasn't had a shower set up onstage and sung an encore from it. Kill two birds w/ one stone, as it were...

Oh Frew I jes wanna be a blessing:


Wonder Woman
by Norman Gimbel and Charles Fox

Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman.
All the world's waiting for you,
and the power you possess.

In your satin tights,
Fighting for your rights
And the old Red, White and Blue.

Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman.
Now the world is ready for you,
and the wonders you can do.

Make a hawk a dove,
Stop a war with love,
Make a liar tell the truth.

Wonder Woman,
Get us out from under, Wonder Woman.
All our hopes are pinned on you.
And the magic that you do.

Stop a bullet cold,
Make the Axis fall,
Change their minds, and change the world.

Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman.
You're a wonder, Wonder Woman.

For some reason whenever I'm in the shower I'm always humming the Tonight Show theme, that upbeat Carson era version. I should say that I never watched the Tonight Show with Carson or Leno, which probably makes it stranger.

The 3 most common places I listen to music are work, car, and bathroom. Chilling around the house too but infrequently.

I have had a cd player or radio in my bathrooms since I was in the 8th grade.

I always pick out a cd to listen to before I take a shower and get ready to do whatever whether it be go to work, going out, etc.

So, the answer is yes, I sing in the shower if I'm moved enough to do so by whatever cd is playing.

Funny Derris, because when ever I'm over and use the facilities, I always stop to check out that little stack of c.d.'s on your bathroom counter.

I don't know about this morning Dalen, but a few weeks ago it was My Morning Jacket's "It Still Moves."

I guess ole gar finds reverb in the shitter, a great place for his Jim James tribute.

For me, it's the theme to the Price is Right - namely, the music that follows a showcase showdown.

I'll jump in and give The Vines some props. I think both albums are great. Pretty awesome live act as well.

Not anymore. My self-serenading was breaking my own heart.

Yes, and its usually something I haven;t heard in ages that just pops into my head.
Most that know me (in real life) know that I'm prone to getting things stuck in my head and repeating them TO DEATH

This morning I was singing "Black Rider" - the Frank Black version.
