    I dunno how to add a poll... does a mod have to do it :confused: Can has poll pwease?

    Do you sing out loud by yourself?

    Do you sing infront of guys?

    Do you sing infront of girls?

    All of the above?

    Or maybe you don't sing and hate polls?


    I don't usually sing in public, unless i'm drunk because that's when I sound really good, but I sing when i'm around my family, just about everyday :D

    i'll normally mumble it to myself, i'm very shy so I don't like to raise my voice when I'm singing to anything, plus my singing voice is terrible since I only sing along with songs... If you get a few drinks in me, i'll get a bit louder but that's about it.

    Ohh.. and if it's a group thing and everyone is singing i might chime in a word or two.

    I usually sing in my car. I can get very loud - the other day I was growling to 'When worlds collide' by Powerman 5000.. Needless to say my throat is raw after doing it once or twice. Also I have yet to find another Powerman 5000 song I like :/ I also tend to whistle to instrument only music. I actually like singing, makes me feel good :)

    Tokyo Vigilante #1 ?

    I tend to sing out loud while going number one. Other times I tend to just lip sync to the words as I know I do not have a great voice.

    I don't tend to sing around people, main exception is around my GF, and only then if she's not really listening..

    However, Haruka Kanata - Asian Kung-Fu Generation, will always get me singing, same for Paralizer - Finger Eleven..

    And on rare (drunk) occasions I have been known to partake of the random rock kareoke nights at the Old Sal'

    99.99999% it's never, but if Bon Jovi's Bad Medicine comes on the MP3 player, I just can't help myself. Hopefully I'd be alone at the time though, as I'm an absolutely terrible singer!

    It really depends.
    With good friends when I am drunk I sing.
    On my own I sing occasionally.
    At band prac i usually scream/growl/squeak/sing along - dependant on how i feel.
    At band performances i usually sing with the crowd, in spite of me being on stage and them in front of it.

    I don't sing in the shower/bath or on the toilet.
    I don't sing in public (usually).
    I don't sing for my family.

    Good to know there are some bit techers that like to sing :D

    I was way too shy to ever sing as a kid... I think I started with driving in the car, then with mates when doing stuff like at a party, or getting drunk, or driving, etc. I sing a lot at home, my boy loves singing loudly in public :D Thanks to Mankz, "Get on My Horse" has become of the regular hits at home. My boy thinks it's hilarious and knows all the words, except for the line about winky... I only sing the uncensored version when i'm getting romantic :naughty:

    I just spent the weekend very drunk, went to Twickenham on the Saturday and got sung out of a pub then was at a beer fest on the Sunday and Monday and I think everyone there hated us. I now have no voice! So definitely sing when drunk.
    Good laugh though, was with a bunch of squadies, the songs they knew!

    I usually sing on my own but I have been known to sing ABBA for people, it's very entertaining.

    In a nightclub, where nobody can hear you and everybody else is doing it too. I also tend to whistle alot around the house while i've got music on.

    whenever NOFX - The Decline is playing

    "ADMIT DEFEAT, LIVE IN DECLINE. BE THE VICTIM OF OUR OWN DESIGN"

    This song gets me so pumped up :D

    I also sing the odd funny songs at random moments to either annoy friends or laugh with them

    Oasis - Wonderwall is also hard to resist
