People who sing to themselves in public bug the shit out of me.

[RandomKoolzip]

Seriously: shut the fuck up. Nobody wants to hear that shit except you.

[suninvited]

1. I am singing

The Happy Song

Oh I could sing unending songs
Of how you saved my soul
Well I could dance a thousand miles
Because of your great love.

My heart is bursting Lord
To tell of all you've done
Of how you changed my life
And wiped away the past
I wanna shout it out
From every roof top sing
For now I know that God
Is for me not against me

Everybody's singing now Cos we're so happy
Everybody's dancing now Cos we're so happy
If only we could see your face
And see you smiling over us
And unseen angels celebrate
For joy is in this place!

[Ellen Forradalom]

2. OOOOOO SOLO MIOOOOO

Oh sorry. You trying to sleep?

[Shell Beau]

3. But my singing brightens everyone's day!

:P

[kwassa]

4. I'm one of them!

Sing, sing, sing.

The hills are alive, with the sound of music .......

[The Animator]

5. Rather sing to myself than listen to the crap that passes for popular music these days.

Sometime you just have to do whatever you can to lift your own spirits, and I've never had any complaints about my voice. Don't like the way I sing, stay out of the Karaoke bar.

[Deep13]

32. Bingo! nt

[Sock Puppet]

6. Really?

Sorry. :(

[ThomCat]

7. Nobody ever wants to hear me sing.

Not even me. :)

I agree with you. There is nothing worse than being on a subway trainwhen some doofus thinks he's going to be discovered if he just keeps singing in public.

[RandomKoolzip]

22. Except being on the compyter at school trying to write a paper, and the dipshit

next to you is singing the latest Mary J. Blige hit under her breath and trying depserately to hit the same kind of curly-q vocal gymnastic moves. It's literally crazy-making. JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!

[MonkeyFunk]

8. I don't mind singers

I do it, too.

But whistlers - those bastards need to die.

[RandomKoolzip]

18. And hummers. I hate hummers.

[Bake]

37. Alrighty then. No hummers for YOU!

:rofl:

Bake

[dolo amber]

9. You mean like...singers?

I should pay $500 so Hannah Montana can sing alone in her tub?? I think NOT. x(

[RandomKoolzip]

19. No, I mean those people who sit next to you at school or work or

stand next to you in the check out line at the supermarket or whereever, humming or singing something at the edge of audibility - you know them by their annoying habit of overemphasizing sybillants ("s" sounds).

May they all get death of the life. :grr:

[Phillycat]

10. Oh my business, I do this all the time.

Under my breath, though! You can't have a problem with that?

...CAN YOU??

[RandomKoolzip]

20. Yeah: ESPECIALLY if i's under your breath....

because then hearing that person sing is like a little mosquito that you can't swat away. At least those who sing loud have the decency to make a spectacle of themselves and thus provide some comic relief.

[Iggo]

11. Yikes. I do that all the time.

I whistle, too. And beautifully, I would add. I know it bugs a lot of people, but I'm a better person when I'm making music. When I'm not making music, I'm a downright angry person. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry. And neither do the cops and the courts...lol.

[sniffa]

12. You'd hate me.

Especially today as I'm doing Down By The River Side on repeat.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

13. When I was in college, the vocal majors would all do that

I'd be walking along and I'd go by one and they'd just be walking by themselves, singing out loud.

Yes, we all know you have a nice voice. A much better voice than what I have, for sure. But honestly, unless you are in a concert hall, I don't care to have you singing. Out here in the open you just look slightly crazy.

[RandomKoolzip]

21. Thank you.

Can they not comprehend how annoying and crazy they seem to the rest of us? Or do they think it's "eccentric" or bold or unique or some bullshit?

[hunter]

14. This is the song that never ends...

Yes it goes 'round and 'round my friends
Somebody started singing it not knowing what it was
And they'll continue singing it forever just because
This is the song that never ends

AAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh!

Sorry, I used to watch Sheri Lewis with my kids when they were young. There's some other similar songs I sing in public too.

[Iggo]

15. Best. Song. Ever.

[zanne]

16. I sing it public unintentionally! nt

[BarenakedLady]

17. La la la la la la la la la la LAAaaaa

*whistle*

hmmmm hm mmm hummmmm hmmmmmm hmmm hmmmm

[Critters2]

23. I sometimes do that. But I'll shut the fuck up.

Didn't realize it was bothering you.

[MissMillie]

24. I like it when people sing

I think sometimes the happiness rubs off on me.

[Sock Puppet]

26. me too

:hug:

I think someone needs to give RKZ a hug.

[RandomKoolzip]

28. I'll accept complete silence as a surrogate hug.

DAMMIT, THE COMPUTER CENTER AT SCHOOL IS NOT A KARAOKE BAR!!!

[Fox Mulder]

25. Amen.

[meegbear]

27. I sing in the car when I'm driving ...

and I don't care who sees me.

[MissMillie]

30. sees me?

I don't care who hears me! :hi:

[meegbear]

34. LOL! That too!

:hi:

[SPKrazy]

29. la la la la la la la la la!!!!!!1111

I'll sing if i want to dammit

[Deep13]

31. So why is that worse than mass-produced background music?

:shrug:

[RandomKoolzip]

33. I repeat: nobody wants to hear that shit.

You may be playing devil's advocate, but next time you're trying to just exist in public and some asshole sidles up next to you and begins humming the melody to some Usher or Mary J. Blige song, complete with all those slides up and down the scale, forgetting half the words, popping all her consonants, UNDER HER BREATH, you will realize I'm right.

Annoying is annoying is annoying. That shit is OBJECTIVELY annoying.

[Sock Puppet]

35. So it's only if it's an Usher or Mary J Blige song?

What if it's Bat Chain Puller or A Love Supreme or Alone Again Or? Do they get a pass? :D

[RandomKoolzip]

39. Nope. Save it for band practice, pal.

Unless! Unless! You sing a song in an loud and exaggerated or humorous cartoon voice and intentionally fuck up all the words. THEN you get a pass.

but if you're seriously thinking anyone wants to hear your breathy oratorios while we're just trying to get some work done, then you deserve to have John Goodman fall on you from a great height.

[Deep13]

36. I've never noticed.

I've never hummed an Usher song and have never heard of MJ Blige. Nevertheless, it is safe to assume that at least one person wants to hear it: the singer.

[RandomKoolzip]

38. Exactly. It's solipsism in very pure form.

Nobody wants to see me masturbate, right? So I should do it in public because it makes me happy? Absoultely not. And i would argue that singing under your breath in public is WORSE than masturbating in public, because everytime a person masturbates in public, a humorous or at least interesting anecdote comes from the experience on the part of the viewer, whereas when someone sings in public, all you get is furrowed brows and ranting from normal people like me who are subjected to it.

[Bake]

40. I wasn't singing to myself, dipwad

Doggone it, people LIKE to hear me sing.

Bake

[RandomKoolzip]

41. In the context of normal social interaction?

If you're just walking around idly singing to yourself in public, people may tell you they like it, but they'd be lying to save your feelings.

Nobody wants to hear that shit.

If you're on stage with a band, then that's a completely different story, of course.

[Bake]

43. Thanks for your concern

Sincerely,

Luciano Pavarotti

[Maraya1969]

42. Well then they shouldn't play music in the grocery stores.

[ScreamingMeemie]

50. Thank you...that's my problem.

[no name no slogan]

44. I only sing Butthole Surfers tunes

I especially like to sing "The Shah Sleeps In Lee Harvey's Grave" while in the produce section at the supermarket.

[RandomKoolzip]

45. That's acceptable.

Everything else is grounds for a beatdown.

[DarkTirade]

46. And from those of us to whom music is an integral part of our lives

and often find ourselves singing, humming or whistling without even realizing it... fuck off.

Unless we're doing it loudly or out of tune, you've got nothing to complain about.

[RandomKoolzip]

48. You'll never meet a person to whom music is more important.

Anyone who knows me will tell you that. I'm a music obsessive, a record collector, a man who, without music, would go completely fucking nuts.

HOWEVER: it is a fact that no one wants to hear you sing out loud.

Sex is an integral part of my life and I love masturbating. I LOVE it! It makes me happy. Do I do it in public? No. Why? BECAUSE I KNOW NOBODY BUT ME WANTS TO HEAR IT. So I'm kind enough not to inflict that bullshit on my fellow humans. All I ask is that you extend the same courtesy.

And as i sadi above, I'd RATHER you do it loudly and out of tune, because then it'd at least be kind of amusing.

[youthere]

47. Right now I am singing a special Rick Astley number to myself, just for you.

[The Animator]

49. Well geez, if you feel that way about it...

"It's a Small World After All, It's a small world after all, it's a small world after all, It's a small... world.. a..fter.. all"

Not even I, am usually that evil... but I just had to.

[ScreamingMeemie]

51. I cannot stand whistling people when I am trying to concentrate

on what brand of bread we need.

[Midlodemocrat]

52. Are you series? People paid BIG money to hear me sing back in the day.

I figure singing in public for free is giving back. I do it for the little people.

[Skittles]

53. well, since whistling enrages me

I would definitely throttle anyone who dared to f***ing SING around me
