I have a brother who loves to sing and he's not blessed to have a good voice. But, he really likes to sing. What i hate most is he sing so loud while taking a bath, our neighbors can even hear him singing. He's out of tune and create his own version/lyrics. I do sing but not as confident as him. Do you sing while taking a bath? Do you think four corners of your bathroom + echo makes your voice beautiful?

This is by far one of the best discussions I've come across. I sometimes indulge in this activity myself. But I'm not very loud. Seldom my family members can hear, that's all. To be honest I'm not gifted with a nightingale's voice either. Thus, I keep my voice low, so that I don't anger my nieghbours. Haha. When I'm not singing, I practice karate, pretending to hit several bad guys at one time. Thanks for this discussion. Good day!

Thank you. Very shy huh? So, what's your favorite song while taking a bath? Neighbor?hahaha aside from hearing you singing it's awkward to know what they're thinking while you're taking a shower(specially us,ladies). Karate? Until now? kids do that unless your into that sports,shadow fighting. Thanks for dropping by.

Not shy, but don't want to disturb others with my beautiful voice either. Haha. No such favourite song, whatever comes to mind I sing. Mostly I sing, Nothing Else Matters, Monster and Whispers In The Dark. I'm not into the sport, but I still watch WWE, thus, imitate the maneuvers. Good day!

I love to do it. As far as I concern it is the best way to sing unnoticed by others, na? But I have seen some others, who go on increasing sound even in his bath. Don't know what is his intention. If such people hav eto prove that they are singers, they must go to the stage and sing, the audience will decide whether he is a best singer.

Maybe it's their "moment". A time to shine. No one can stop them since it's a "private" room, they can do whatever they want. At home we, my parents and some of his friends his audience, we just pretend he's a good performer.

this is not practiced solely by your brother, many are making use of the bathrooms to exercise their vocal cords and my youngest son is one. Whatever is their purpose or reason for singing while taking a bath then lets just let them enjoy it. maybe lets just have cotton balls ready to protect our eardrums.

So it's normal. What i do hate about the situation is that our bathroom is located near the receiving room. If we watch television we barely hear and understand what we are watching. He's not singing, he's shouting. He wants attention, i think.

I am a frustrated singer. I do not have a good voice but I do love to sing.However I couldn't sing to the best I can in front of an audience so I just do it while taking a bath. I surely sings out loud as if no one hears me. I could hear the echo and I do hear a good voice and a good song coming from me whoa.

hahaha not my brother. He definitely loves to perform in front of us and sometimes with a dance number. His voice is quite irritating though. Echo from the bathroom enhances our voice.

Despite the fact that I've sold cassettes of me singing to hundreds of people, I don't think I have a good singing voice. But I will say that in the shower my voice gets a lot better.

Are you referring to minus one cassette tapes? The one sod in record bars before? If you sold hundreds of it definitely you are blessed. Why saying you don't sing well? Very humble. I think everyone likes their voice while in the bathroom. It sounds like professional and a lot sexier than our normal voice.

LOL, I do this sometimes most especially when I am in a good mood. It’s somehow relaxing in a way singing while you are in the bathroom. But there is a con on doing so, because people in the house will get annoyed on your loud voice. Because you can’t tell if you sang loudly or not because the bathroom echoed your voice and you don’t know if it will bounce a loud tone outside the bathroom.

Well at least it is a sign of happiness, and that is a good thing ! The natural echo in a shower room, doesn't make your voice beautiful, but it does make it sound like it!

I am sorry, but the picture of your brother singing loudly and badly from the bathroom while you and everyone else roll your eyes and cover your ears is hilarious! It could be a scene from a movie!

Just a couple of months ago I met a guy who was my neighbor in one place. He remembered how I liked to sing while taking a bath. He even remembered the songs I was singing at the time and sang it for me. Mind you, we never met each other after around 15 years... So he has a good memory or was I that good in singing that he was mesmerized...? Singing while bathing is seen as someone having a good mood. Let your brother be...

I do sing while taking a shower. I listen to music while I take a shower and take a bath so I sing a long the song. I don't think that I sing that load though. I mostly sing with the music I am hearing and not any louder. I actually find it funny when I hear my roommate singing in the bathroom. I don't mind if he sings out of tune because it's his prerogative to do so.

I don't sing my heart out just like your brother, but I hum sometimes. I guess singing or humming while taking a bath adds to the feeling of caress because when taking a bath you are practically taking care of yourself.
