Do you sing while you are walking on the street?

Ha ha...... I sometimes do. I sing while I am walking on the street. My daughter often stop me doing it. She said,"Mum, don't you feel bored? Why do you keep singing the same song?" When I like a song or think of a song on a particular day, I keep singing it no matter I am at home or going out. Of course, I would not sing loudly when I am in the public area. What about you? Do you like singing? Do you think singing can help you relax or express yourself in some ways? Have a good day! agonyaunt69 (3:34am 30 March 2010, Hong Kong time)

Hi there, Singing while on go? Hmmmmm yeah I do sometime when people are not around to hear me singing. But more than singing I often talk while I am walking alone. I do so to polish my fluency over the language or languages I speak. This is something like maintain your car or vehicle so that it remains fresh. Singing is good indeed. It lightens your heart and you enjoy the moment. Just tell me how many of us enjoy ourselves. even amidst friends and relations we are like an island. We are lost in our own make shift world and slowly push ourselves towards solitude. Go on with your song. Never mind the scale and the pitch. Just sing out your heart.

Hi krajibg, Thank you so much! I like your last paragraph! It is nice! I do not sing loud when I am on the street, just in a very soft voice. ha ha...... Well, do you mean you like practising some kind of languages while you are walking? Do you mean not your mother tongue? Happy Day! agonyaunt69 (3:03am 1 April, 2010, Hong Kong time)

Yep, sometimes I sing while walking on the streets, or while waiting for something. Sometimes even while working. Definitely, if I'm on a cab and there's music playing and I know the song, I would most likely sing a long too.

Hahaha yes I do sing while walking..it is like a cure for stress just like laughter. Sometimes when you are so happy you tend to sing while walking or driving. In this kind of world that we move in..each one deserves a good laugh and sing once in a while, right?

Hello there Yes. When i walk down the street or just go walking sometimes i'll find myself singing. When i do, i actually end up whistling, humming or singing the words to an old 1940's/50's/60's type songs, like the ones by Sinatra/Jr. and the like... ughhh i cant think of their names but i know how the songs go. i love humming/singing/whistling them while strolling. they fit so perfect on a listless day lol. I cant sing well but i do it to entertain myself. I dont sing loud enough to be disruptive. i sing/hum/whistle softly, but loud enough to be noticed in a charming way. kinda put a smile on the face of people i pass by. singing/music are definitely ways to relax and express yourself! this was a very nice topic. Thank you for posting that one lol. You have a good one too (3:43PM - 29 March 2010, here in South Carolina, USA)

Hi BL4Ck_W0LF: Thank you for your response! Before writing my comment on your response, may I ask you a question? Did anyone type the "0" at "W0LF" as an "O"? Did you pay attention to that when you read others' response to you? LOL Well, I whistled a lot when I was young but my friends said it is not appropriate as I am a girl. LOL I sing so softly,too, when I am on the street. Happy Day! agonyaunt69 (3:52am 30 March 2010, Hong Kong time)

hm... You know, i've never actually went back to find that out. perhaps they did mistype "W0LF" as "WOLF". I dunno. what a weird remark lol Its not appropriate because you're a girl? what sense does that make? None. Kinda stupid to me. i guess its a cultural thing... You sing well, yes? Thanks for the response. Interesting

i only sing if i feel happy or in love but i dont sing loud, maybe just for myself so that other people will not notice it as they might thinking im crazy if they saw me far and looks like im talking since they have no idea that im singing. besides my voice is not that good so i dont want to disturb people with it.

Hi homeshoppers, It does not need a good voice! ha ha ha...... It is just a way to relax ourselves. Of course, not many people like to do it or enjoy doing it. :D That means you only sing on the street when you are in good mood, so I wish you always sing on the street. Best wishes, agonyaunt69 (2:23am 1 April 2010, Hong Kong time)

Hi frontvisions101, Well, singing is really fun! Moreover, it doesn't need anyone but only ourselves. I like singing when I am at home, too. It is so relaxing and sometimes it helps speed up my work, too. I think it might be because singing makes me in good mood, then improve the efficiency. ha ha ......

I like to sing - singing helps me to relax and feel better
Hi, Agonya . Well, I don't sing while I am walking on the street, I think other walkers will think that I am crazy. But I love to sing to my son when we are going to sleep, and I love to sing when I am at home and I am doing my home works. I love to sing in the bathroom, because of the echoe. I love it! And yeah, singing is helping me to relax and to feel better after the hard working day.

Hi joan2010, I am like a repeater, too, sometimes. When I like one song, then I often sing it and only sing several sentences, as I cannot remember all the lyrics, ha ha...... Happy Day! agonyaunt69 (2:38am 1 April, 2010, Hong Kong time)

Sometimes I sing while walking specially when I am happy or inspired. I don't care what people may think against me. Perhaps, they can identify wether I am singing or just talking alone. Besides, this is also my way of relaxing my mind and nerves from the stressful world.

Hi Bhadine, Yes, it is so relaxing when singing on the street! I like looking at things on the street and then sing. I enjoy it very much! It is just like I am with myself and does not disturb by the others. Happy Day! agonyaunt69 (3:06am 1 April 2010, Hong Kong time)

Well... I whistle while walking on the street but I never sing. It's not that I'm embarrassed to do it, I just can't sing worth anything. Though, I know others that do and it helps them relax. It's just not my thing though. .;

I've sung under my breath while walking home from the theater a few times. Nothing too loud, and normally very softly. I live in New York, though, so I don't think it comes off as too weird. I love singing when I'm home. I'm not very good, but I enjoy it.

As far as I am concerned, I think I like to sing so much. So when I am walking on the street alone, then I will just go to enjoy myself so much. I just sing as I wish. which helps me a lot in relaxing.

I tend to sing when I'm listening to music from my cellphone. I always sing along with the tune. Of course, when you have your headset in your ears, you thought that your singing softly but actually your voice is loud enough to be heard by everybody. I can see people staring at me and laugh! LOL! Sometimes I get embarrassed because I always sing out of tune.

Oh..really? Its okay who cares? but I never did the same thing you do even if I would like to do it..but i won't try because people might just slap at me because of a bad tune and second they might think I'm a wannabe or insane....singing is my frustrations so I won't even dare doing it in public. just contented in listening to my ipod.

if im using headphone with my ipod then yes i sing with it but if not then no i will not coz my voice is not that good and im afraid everyone will laugh at me and it will only embarrass me. one time while im inside the train the guy next to me was singing loud as if his voice is so good, when i look at him his wearing headphone so im sure his just following the song.
