    You hear of people singing in the shower but I find it hard to sing with water splashing down on my face while washing my junk. Do people actually do this and what song would ye sing?

    Depending on my mood, I will, yeah. I'll sing along to whatever music I have playing on my phone. Abba mostly :)

    I sing the Pokemon theme song.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,543 ✭✭✭JerryHandbag

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,033 ✭✭✭mauzo


    My favourites to sing in the shower are....Black and gold, Titanium, The worlds greatest, Any Eminem song, Fill my little world right up...right uuup!

    To name a few...they just always pop into my head as soon as I step in!

    I don't sing, I dance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,538 ✭✭✭flutterflye


    Nope.
    Don't get why so many people do sing in the shower.
    I think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,328 ✭✭✭karaokeman


    Hell is gone and heaven's here,
    There's nothing left for you to fear,
    Shake your arse, come over here,
    Now scream:cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,030 ✭✭✭✭Chuck Stone


    I sing 'I'm a messenger boy, bringing my love to you' in a really effeminate Cork accent.

    (That's the only line I know so I just repeat it)

    Classic one I hope.

    there is more than one?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,364 ✭✭✭✭Kylo Ren


    Classic one I hope.

    There are others? :O

    I don't want to know actually. I am content in the knowledge that there are only 151 Pokemon and one theme song.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,500 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND


    Maybe a bit of Ryan Adams now and then, I'd get through 2 to 3 full songs. Sometimes I might make up my own songs by humming a riff and then trying to fit a verse and chorus in it. If I consider it strong I'll keep it in my head until I can record it onto a phone and eventually work it out on an acoustic and add proper lyrics.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 972 ✭✭✭supernova84


    I would go for something like why does it always rain on me by travis or one from the wet wet wet catalogue


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,034 ✭✭✭Ficheall


    Won't work in the thread, obviously, but when this topic arises with your friends you inform them that "A recent survey found that 30% of people masturbate while in the shower, whereas the other 70% usually sing. And do you know what song they sing?"
    "No...?"
    "I didn't think you would..."




    I'm here all week.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,676 ✭✭✭✭herisson


    Yea all the time...i sing stuff that im too embarrassed to sing in public or songs that i really really cant get away with singing!

    the current ones are One Direction - Thats what makes you Beautiful and Cypress Hill - Insane in the Membrane! :o

    I do sing, but only in my head. I have a horrible singing voice and wouldn't inflict it on anyone.

    I like to compose terrible songs too. Usually really cheesy pop songs with the worst lyrics I can think up. This is one I came up with this morning, it's meant to be the cheesiest, most 80's sounding, worst football song imaginable:
    We are the boys! (The boys in green) by some random drunk

    (Chorus)
    We are the boys! We are the boys in green!
    We are the best that you've ever seen!
    We are the boys! We are the boys in green!
    Our captain is Robbie Keane!

    We're on our way to Poland,
    We're gonna have some fun!
    So grab your mates and join us,
    The party's only just begun!

    We have ourselves army,
    the likes you've never seen!
    We're gonna stand up for the boys,
    The mighty boys in gree-ee-een!


    (Chorus)
    We are the boys! We are the boys in green!
    We are the best football team!
    We are the boys! We are the boys in green!
    We're gonna be on your tv screens!

    We're gonna sing our songs,
    we're gonna sing 'em loud,
    We're gonna cheer for our boys,
    Cos we know they'll do us prou-ou-oud!

    We'll have a celebration,
    following the Irish dream,
    We will always back the boys
    The mighty boys in gree-ee-een!

    <guitar solo and random bit of commentary>

    (repeat first chorus and fade out)

    Toto - Africa

    Currently trying to learn all the words to Azealia Banks "212" as well. I blast it out of my speakers when I shower (god bless an ensuite).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,846 ✭✭✭Fromthetrees


    I cry in the shower because no one can see my tears and it's also quite loud so nobody can hear my constant wailing out of the word why.


  • Registered Users Posts: 901 ✭✭✭Vicar in a tutu


    I like to scream a melody of Disney songs until my face is red and my voice is hoarse. very relaxing.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,597 ✭✭✭Witchie


    Lots of different songs, whatever pops into my head really but usually when I am reaching for my shower gel it moves to "Lean on me" coz its soap and glory clean on me shower gel and then it gets stuck in my head.

    I sing all the time in the shower and my song is...



    When I lived in halls of residence in University in London one of the showers was right next to the common room. In I go to get my lather on completely forgetting where I am and start belting it out. When I finish up and get out towel around my waste I stepped out of the door to the shower I see one of my friends and two of the girls who lived in halls too. "Your a lovely singer." says my friend (in what I imagine was a meant to be sarcasm) "Thanks!" I said winked at the girls and off I strutted back to my room (inside I thought I would die of shame but I wasn't going to let them know it).

    Love singing in the shower cheers me right up!


  • Registered Users Posts: 441 ✭✭Rich11
