I Believe In Singing

Improved Essays
I believe in singing in the shower. Using different colored bottles of shampoo as my mic, I sing until my throat is raw and my voice is nearly gone. Dancing around, having the time of my life in a three walled room I won't be judged in. Attempting to sing high soprano notes and belting out low alto notes. Singing in the shower leaves me able to express myself, like I am preforming at my own personal concert.

The only things in the shower besides me are shampoo bottles, so I never feel judged as I might if I sang anywhere else. People can be cruel, and I’d rather not draw attention to myself more than I have to in public. In the shower, I am free to be as loud as I want without really caring so much as to who hears me. Though it is awkward when my dad tells me how good of a singer I am; that he can hear me singing my heart out, I wouldn’t stop for a second of it. I can belt out like Mariah Carey. I can rap like Eminem (not really but I do try so it’s the thought that counts.) I can sing as high as Kelly Clarkson (idol), and I can sing as low as Adele. I never sing in front of other people I don’t know, but when I get home the true popstar/opera singer/rapper comes out of me, and shines like it should.

It is beautiful (for me at least, probably not for anybody else that's hearing it.) I can play the [imaginary] drums better than Ashton Irwin, and I can play long [air] guitar solos better than Michael Clifford. I can be anyone I want to be. I feel so free. I put Calum Hood to shame with my [imaginary] bass skills, and I can sing louder and clearer than Luke Hemmings could ever dream of (I could try but he sounds like an angel so it would be hard.) Singing in the shower definantly adds confidence in a way, knowing that in that moment I am the best I can

    There are several factors that would motivate an individual to risk the vulnerability and criticism associated with singing in public: love of music, love of performing, and love of attention. Perhaps all three of these components factored into Florence Foster-Jenkins pursuit and passion for singing on stage .Unfortunately, Florence didn't have the vocal talent worthy of performing - unbeknownst to her. Throughout her amateur career as an opera singer, Florence unwittingly faced ridicule about her voice which was warbly, weak, and high. Nonetheless, Florence continued to sing in self-sponsored concerts, like there was nobody listening. Florence was born into a wealthy Pennsylvania family in 1868.…

    My entire life has been filled with music. When I was a little kid, my mother and I would listen to Gloria Estefan in the car and sing at the top of our lungs. As I got older, I decided that I wanted to keep as much music in my life as possible, and that’s why I joined choir. “Keep Calm and Sing On” reminds me that no matter where life takes me, I can drown my troubles or worries with singing. Choir soon lead me to band, where I decided that I would play the alto saxophone.…

    I look down and see my mother smiling proudly at me, and I am taken back to where it all began. Rumour has it that I have been singing since the day I was born. In truth, my first experience with vocal music came at the age of two. I had listened to a song on TV, and I couldn’t help but fall in love with it, singing it over and over. My parents knew from that day that I had musical potential, and they encouraged me…

    “A handful of moments I wished I could change, but I was carried away,” are the lyrics that remind a lot about myself. Growing up, and even about two years ago, I was insanely shy and did not talk much around people, friends, or family. The way I talked to people was in a timid, soft spoken way, which looking back, was awfully embarrassing. My friends and family would laugh at me because I could not talk well, and when I did talk, they acted as if I were a baby who just said its first words. With all of that nonsense going on, their idiotic response kind of made me not want to say anything anymore.…

    For my Personal Change Project I decided to partake in Water Conservation, specifically reducing the amount of time I spend taking a shower everyday. As my proposal stated I spend a lot of time in the shower, especially on the weekends because I usually listen to music in the shower. Listening to music in the shower is entertaining and it’s the only place that I can freely sing without my mom having to yell at me saying that I’m a horrible singer. Anyways, the main point is that listening to music in the shower, especially a genre that I’m really passionate about can leave me in the shower for a maximum of thirty minutes. My Personal Change Project was aimed to reduce the amount of time that I spend in the shower by reducing the amount of music that I listen to while I’m in there.…
