Singing in your car . . .

Recommended Posts

Yep, I sing in the car too. Most of the time at a normal volume, but occasionally very loud! If someone sees me and thinks I look amusing, what the heck! :D.

 

It's always less embarassing for me when spotted if I have my shades on! :cool:

The only track by Meatloaf to sing along to in the car just has to be 'Paradise by the Dashboard Light'.

I'm right handed so tend to tap with my right foot and so it is the driver directly behind me who I have sympathy for my car speed fluctuating rapidly as I tap away.

One track that always got my speed accelerating was 'Freebird' and on one ocasion as I was coming off the motorway at Renishaw i really had to tell myself off and get a grip.

I used to drive a ford galaxy people carrier in the 1990s, which was often full floor to ceiling with my huge PA speakers, when on the way to a gig. After picking up my mate, who I had to pay to help due to the weight and size of the speakers, we used to find it hilarious to drive slowly past bus stops where people were waiting while playing, at full volume,

 

ELO & Olivia Newton~John's Xanadu..

 

We used to get some real funny looks...

 

These days favourite driving music is,

Rapture by Blondie, which I sing along to, but not if anyone can hear me It's just so annoying..

Avoid eye contact, good idea!

 

I find there's something very therapeutic about singing in the car...

It's safer than in the house, because there's no danger the neighbours can overhear!

These lighter evenings are definitely a problem for the traffic singers... in the dead of winter no-one can see you, so you can give it full 80's power ballad posturing and grimacing!

As famously sung by the late Johnny Cash:

 

"C`mon get rhythm when you get the blues"

I have just started to play the saxophone. It's very difficult to play it while driving so I've decided not to do this and leave it at home.

Oil painting is much more easy; in fact it's almost as easy at toe nail cutting.

I sometimes do 'sing' and scare other road users or pedestrians!
