I do it..I did it the other day.....

I found myself in Settle recently, tooling around in my rental, windows down, cool beezes blowing, cranking up the radio to a catchy song, and singing along at the top of my lungs.

What is your favorite song or songs to put on the stereo and just belt one out?

I am a 60's music kind of guy. Joe Cocker came on the radio "Have a little help from my friends" and I did not care in the least who passed me on the highway and stared; I was on stage with Joe and we were amazing!

In your car or in the shower; what is your favorite sing along song?
Do I have to pick just one? Geeze, I sing in my car all the time. As my profile says, "sometimes loudly and very badly". Some music just sounds better in the car! If I had to pick, I'd say almost anything by Queen. I was listening to "Somebody To Love" and singing to it and there were these two old, really little East Indian ladies at the light watching me so I sang to them. They were smiling and probably thought I was crazy but I don't care, it's a great song.
Pretty much anything by AC/DC is good.

Yes, yes. I know -- puerile lyrics. But it's fun! It is very cathartic.

In the car its Iggy and the Stooges / New York Dolls / The Clash / Rage Against the Machine with the occasional Parliament / Eminem / Public Enemy thrown in to change it up.

In the shower I'll usually defer to Mrs. Mazo and keep it quiet - although I do bolt out the odd Captain Beefheart tune from time to time just to keep her water flowing.

With that line up it don't matter how good or bad you are. Just gotta be loud.

Cheers,
Mazo.
Play That Funky Music White Boy will get me going every time! as will Wild Wild West from the 80's... not the Will Smith version.

It doesn't matter. If it is on the radio and I like the song, I'll jam with it. Most likely it will be an 80s hair band or 90s grunge.
Build Me Up, Buttercup by the Foundations and All Star by Smashmouth. I have tons of others, but these are the ones that get me singing very loudly off-key every time. I've been known to bust into them a capella. :P

....included pronunciations for the unctuous, smarmy few who use the patently incorrect "Ohhhh-mahhhj"! TV personalities should never be an accepted source of proper pronunciation (sorry Walter, Tom and the decidedly awful, certainly not missed Phil D. ). Even the proper British with their aspirate "Hs" eschew using this as an option.

such a naughty, naughty girl, Dallas; what kind of a guy do you think I am? oh yeah, never mind.....lol

Getting ready for the big Republic Of Texas Bike Rally next week in Austin, TX. Guns and Roses comes to mind......

Dharma, anything by Queen is absolutely a car song; who has not belted out Bohemian Rapsody driving down the road?

damn I went to Austin at wrong time---I love that biker rally!!!!!

Guns & Roses are awesome!!!

I kinda like this song.....

Fuck You Like An Animal
You let me violate you
You let me desecrate you
You let me penetrate you
You let me complicate you

Help me
I broke apart my insides
Help me
I've got no soul to sell
Help me
The only thing that works for me
Help me get away from myself

I wanna fuck you like an animal
I wanna feel you from the inside
I wanna fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to god

You can have my isolation
You can feel the hate that it brings
You can have my absence of faith
You can have my everything

Help me
Tear down my reason
Help me
It's your sex I can smell
Help me
You make me perfect
Help me
think of somebody else

I wanna fuck you like an animal
I wanna feel you from the inside
I wanna fuck you like an animal
My existence is flawed

You
Get
Me
Closer to god

Through every forest
Above the trees
Within my stomache
Scraped off my knees
I drink the honey
From inside your hive
You are the reason
I stay alive
