27 Aug 04 - 03:10 PM (#1258401) Subject: RE: songs you hear and have to sing along From: PoppaGator Brown-Eyed Girl -- if not the whole song, definitely the "sha-la-la" part... Like a Rolling Stone -- again, maybe not the whole thing, but certainly the part about "How Does It FREEEEEEEL?" Li'l Liza Jane, as played by Kermit Ruffins or Rebirth or any of the New Orleans new-school brass bands. Oh, yeah -- you never hear that on the radio anywhere else in the world, unless you tune your computer to www.wwoz.org. |

29 Aug 04 - 09:18 AM (#1259429) Subject: RE: songs you hear and have to sing along From: Ron Davies Almost unlimited number of songs. I get complaints from passengers for doing just that in the car (for some reason they think I should pay more attention to them--now why would that be?). Best solution I've found is to have passengers who enjoy doing it as much. Anyway, I'm with Joe Offer on this--love to sing falsetto in the car. In fact, I owe my membership in any choral group at all to the car radio. I have a lousy range--one and half octaves--but with falsetto, it's doubled. Some guys in my group have no falsetto at all and several times we've been asked to use it--particularly to slide seamlessly into it. Anyway, I have the Beach Boys to thank for my choral career. (I've tried to sing a few 4 Seasons hits, but Frankee Vallee just goes too high---how does he do it?--was that a studio trick?) At, any rate, I'd definitely sing any Beach Boys hit in the car--top 10--no particular order-- Don't Worry Baby Fun Fun Fun Wendy California Girls Surfer Girl Be True To Your School Sloop John B. Wouldn't It Be Nice? and just for a break, to round it off--2 non Beach Boys Under the Boardwalk--love to sing all the parts The Lion Sleeps Tonight --same It would be real easy to make other, long, lists, especially of doo-wop--alternating singing the various parts. |

30 Aug 04 - 06:46 AM (#1259730) Subject: RE: songs you hear and have to sing along From: GUEST,Jon I don't have to sing along to any song. Sometimes I may choose to. Whether I do or not depends on factors including where I am at the time, whether I've had a drink or not and my general mood. The song itself, assuming I know it is pretty much an irellevant factor. Not really singing along but last night when out with my brother a music conversation started in a pub and we went though things including Bowie's "Quicksand" and Pink Floyd's "Shine On You Crazy Diamond". Another night it could be singing songs like "Take Me Back To The Black Hills" or "Poor Judd Is Dead" in the car. Maybe on another occasion it could be "The Blacksmith", etc. It's as simple as that. Songs don't compel me to sing along but appropriate occasions might... Jon |

01 Sep 04 - 12:26 PM (#1261708) Subject: RE: songs you hear and have to sing along From: PoppaGator I love these "name your favorite songs" threads, because they always remind me of great tunes I've almost forgotten about. They also always include names of songs I've never heard -- in most cases, probably because I live on one side of the world and not the other. In any event, it stimulates my curiosity, and when I encounter the same title over and over again, I eventually learn to look for it. I love to sing along with girl-group tunes, too, especially in the car -- just like Joe Offer, Ron Davies, and like the Beatles so obviously did. And, when my vocal range is at its peak, I really enjoy singing along with Al Green, too. A special thanks to Metchosin for reminding me of the Fleetwoods' extremely wonderful "Come Softly To Me." Wow. |
