You know you do it. You are riding in your car jamming to XM radio and “your new most favorite song” comes on. You love this song, and no, it’s not ‘Your Song’ by Elton John.
It’s 'your song', the-one-that-you-don’t-really-know-all-the-words-to-but- that-is-never-gonna-stop-you-from-belting-it-out-in-your-car-like-you-are-some-kinda-hot rap-rock-star-jamming-at-the-mike-for-your-40,000-fans.
Only there is one slight problem. When we don’t really have no idea the words that the artist is singing, do we stop singing? I think not! We simply make up some word(s) of our own. And then, even after we are corrected, say by a good, dear friend, sister or relative, who hear us sing those words, and laugh their heads off at us... we continue using the words we made up. Over and over. Here are some of my favorites.
Virgin, Virgin, it’s an emergency…sing to ‘Urgent’ by Foreigner
My Eyes of Georgia …sing to “My Eyes Adored You” by Isaac Hayes
You can Play Secretary on My Bosch Tonight...sing to "You can play secretary Im the boss tonight” in Stronger by Kanye West
My Woman is a-k-o ...sing to ”My woman from Tokyo” by Deep Purple
Mow the Lawn, Mow the Lawn...sing to “Move Along” by All American Rejects
Loving it in La Vita...sing to “Love in an Elevator" by Aerosmith
The good news? Check out this video and know that we all do this. Click and enjoy!
