Do you sing in the shower?? - Electronic Circuits Projects Diagrams Free

Well do you sing in the shower. My cousin says that singing in the shower is healthy and can boost confidence and self-esteem. Its the only place you feel "private and free" according to my cousin...

I sing in the shower sometimes!!! :lol:

No because I live in Apartmenthouse (12 storey house) and I don't want my neighbours to laugh at me

As far as I'm aware?, the reasoning behind singing in the shower is for the acoustic properties, the hard flat surfaces and small room provide excellent natural reverberation - and reverb makes almost any voice sound musical.

So when you sing in the shower, you sound better than singing elsewhere, which presumably makes you feel good?.

If you want to hear bathroom acoustics at work, listen to Led Zeppelin's first album. Jimmy Page would put mikes in the studio's bathroom to record John Bonham's drums. That's presumably what makes the bass drum sound so huge and the overall band sound so "loud and heavy", at a time where rock recordings (1968-69) sounded much more "primitive".

I am always alert, that is why I never sing or dance because if I get caught again I would have to here it at thanksgiving and all the holidays where the family gathers up.

I can sing and yell as loud as i want on the freeway with the windows down and nobody will know :lol:

I sing everywhere except the shower. Shower water carries negatively charged buggermatrons that will live in you forever. So I try not to open my mouth.

I've heard sessions of Johns drumming that were never used in actual releases, because our music tech teacher has shown them us (don't ask how he got them :lol: ). Yeah can hear him shouting and going mad through it, but it's quiet compared to the drums. Great sound though agreed

. Oh, and in answer to the question, mostly for the good health of any local ears, no :lol:

:shock: Wow, I'd love to hear those sessions :shock:

It's quite impressive the work they got done in the studio back in those days. Jimmy Page wasn't just a good showman, he was quite imaginative in the studio too. Not an engineer by any means, but the guy had an intuitive way of coming up with "techniques" that worked.

I don't sing in the shower either, I'd wake up at least 4 neighbours. :twisted:

Sing in the shower? No.

I do treat myself to a rousing butt trumpet solo on occasion though. :lol:

audioguru · 10th October 2005, 03:53 PM

Butt trumpet!
Hey! I still have the trombone I played in my high-school's band. It should work well if I can reach around to play it. I wonder what a tuba would sound like. French horn maybe?
:lol: :lol:
