Of course I sing in the car! I have the worst voice in the universe and am forbidden from singing at home. Sometimes, I seat dance a little at a red light. “ONE. SINGULAR SENSATION!..” “…and ALLLLLLL THAAAAAAT JAAAAAAAAAAAAZZZZZZZZZ”. ---

When there’s a song on the radio I really enjoy. ---

Yes. Do I sound good? No. Do I even sing the same song? Not always! There is one song on Buena Vista Social Club that sounds to me like “Red Roses for a Blue Lady” so I sing that while the guy is singing whatever it is in Spanish/Cuban. For example (more than one song like that). I do try not to play air guitar if I’m driving. Or a passenger for that matter. ---

Occasionally on long solo road trips, I listen to the radio, or tapes. Yes, most of my vehicles are that old! If I hear a song that I like, I will loudly sing along. Some times I do not even need the radio. Sometimes, I just feel like singing. This most often happens when I am riding one of my motorcycles. I have no idea if my voice is good or not. Yet, FWIW, I have sung to groups of up to 3,000 & I did not stampede a single cow! I do not embarrass very easily. I sing at signals with the windows down, if others do not appreciate my singing, they can roll their windows up. ---
