My youngest, who is closing in on ten, just discovered the joy in "Me & Julio Down by the Schoolyard" by Paul Simon. When she wanted to play it again to learn the words, she asked me to please not sing along so she could hear better.
That was a tough request, even though I don't even know all the words.
"I'm on my way. I don't know where I'm going. I'm on my way.
I'm taking my time but I don't know where..."
What songs compel you to sing along recently?

Ridiculously, I have been stuck on "Alone Again, Naturally" for a few days. In full voice, head thrown back. Very Strange.
I've been singing along with Vern Gosdin.
Dream of me.
Dreeeaaaammmm of meeeee
Every time you get to feeling blue
Dreeeaaammmm of meeee
and I'll be dreaming of you
Songs I can't help but sing along with? Love Shack by the B52's comes to mind. You've got a Friend by James Taylor. The Aria from Rigoletto.. ;-)
Wow, there are so many choices to say. I sing along all the time. Too bad I cannot carry a tune to save me. My poor children....
Anyway, I would name some titles, but it would certainly give away my age.... ;-)
Blue Moon. Whiskey River. I Drink Alone. One Bourbon, One Scotch, and One beer. Cold Shot. I Love This Bar. Lightning Bar Blues.
Is there a pattern here?
