'Amazing Grace', but if someone was listening, probably 'No woman, no cry'

Oh, I love Zadoc the Priest. My dad used to be in the Westminster Choir, so there are a heck of a lot of choral songs, hymns and the like (including Gilbert and Sullivan musicals) that bring back great memories

Just reading that gave me an earworm. Two and a half minutes of snotty indie-punk called Halo by a no-mark band called Embassy. Saw them once in a proper toilet venue and bought the 7". Played it to death. And now the song’s stuck in my head again. So THANKS PREY.

I sing whether people are listening or not. There's always a song in my head, I sing them all.

You're welcome.

Mine was a b side to a single that never went anywhere and I can't find a copy of it anywhere. I seem to know all the words though. Or at least, my brain has filled in what I think the words were pretty effectively

Aren't they!

I'd follow with a selection of Beth Hart, Gregory Porter and Amy Winehouse covers and Motown hits you have known and loved

with a few operatic arias thrown in for good measure.

Thinking about it this might be the reason I was alone

Whatever I felt like singing.

Same as if someone was listening - unless a child was listening, and then I might censor myself if it was sweary or explicit.

I loved that musical

I also loved how they made it local. "Nigel Farage" was the reference we got thrown in in Manchester

Unchained Melody, somewhere between the Elvis version and The Righteous Brothers version.

I belt it out in the car a fair amount

I can hit all the right notes.

But never in the right order.

Mating foxes like it though

"What song would you sing? "

Does this have to include myself also??

I'm feeling uncharacteristically cheerful today so I'm gonna go for the Ode to joy.

Plus if it was good enough for Ludvig van B when he was deaf at the time, then it's good enough for me.

Failing that, Creeping Death by Metallica.

Okay. Seriously: Cowboy Song by Thin Lizzy, or Look at You by Screaming Trees.

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

Lyrics

Now, this is a story all about how

My life got flipped-turned upside down

And I'd like to take a minute

Just sit right there

I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air

In West Philadelphia born and raised

On the playground was where I spent most of my days

Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin', all cool

And all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school

When a couple of guys who were up to no good

Started making trouble in my neighborhood

I got in one little fight and my mom got scared

She said, "You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air"

I begged and pleaded with her day after day

But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way

She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket

I put my Walkman on and said, "I might as well kick it"

First class, yo this is bad

Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass

Is this what the people of Bel-Air living like?

Hmm, this might be alright

But wait, I hear they're prissy, bourgeois, all that

Is this the type of place that they just send this cool cat?

I don't think so

I'll see when I get there

I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel-Air

Well, the plane landed and when I came out

There was a dude who looked like a cop standing there with my name out

I ain't trying to get arrested yet, I just got here

I sprang with the quickness like lightning, disappeared

I whistled for a cab and when it came near

The license plate said, "Fresh" and it had dice in the mirror

If anything I could say that this cab was rare

But I thought "Nah, forget it, yo, holmes to Bel Air"

guess ill be b alone

Interesting. People wait until they are alone to sing?

You don't just belt out your tunes regardless?

Interesting indeed
