  • Good thread Void, and one that brought a revelation.
    I have the following in my head for different times, much like Lucifer.
    Audioslave - Cochise. Long straight flat sprints
    Queens of the Stone Age - Feelgood Hit of the Summer (it's got amazing mantra like vocals that just repeat "Nicotine, Valium, Vikadim, Marijuana, Ecstasy and Alcohol"). Hill climbs
    Rolling Stones - She's a Rainbow. General riding in the sun that feels amazing.

  • showtunes. Rogers & Hammerstein mostly.

    South Pacific this week. tho doing the 'happy talk' fingers whilst going round corners is not advised.

  • This morning was Alice in Chains - Man in the box, this evening will most likely be OCMS - Wagon Wheel as it has been in my head for the last hour or so and I love it

  • Did you just come out of the closet, Jason?

    No, Matt, darling, sweetie,

    Didnt you read the post- I just went out shredding the knar on mtb in the filth and mud,
    it was worth every minute and yes, I sang all the way round.

  • I had this in my head today - don't listen to it, it will stay in your head you hear me!

  • Went out last night and remembered that I also do lounge versions of GG Allin songs, usually Bite It You Scum and Kill Everything I Fuck.

    and another self written one regarding the residents of White Bluff, 20 or so miles west of Nashville, and their riotous behavior.

  • No, Matt, darling, sweetie,

    I always knew you weren't gay...

    Just bi-cycle curious.

  • boom boom, groan,^^^ humour muscles not warmed up yet Luci?
    today I will be singing
    " Im Max- the king of the wild things" from where the wild things are, all day,
    havent watched it recently just got it like that.

  • +1 to Bend Sinister - unfairly maligned, that album what I wrote

    Maligned English band episodic indicative of the 80's - ah

  • Pearl Jam - Last Kiss

  • cybotron-clear- I can't sing so I kind of humm

  • I sing the chorus of this a lot..

  • i listen/sing all the songs on the macarframa soundtrack and think im really cool as i jump red lights and shit

  • Bows down to Crumb

  • Was listening to boogie, disco and early house today - a Lil Louis mixtape of classics.

    Was early, not many people on the roads so was singing along all the way. I was trying to do the male counterpoint to "love dancing" - the one that Mancuso plays as Louis was using the standard female vox version.

    So much fun.

  • I'm rubbish at remembering song lyrics but those pesky TV ad people have a lot to answer for as I often find myself singing the last dire advert i've heard, years ago I went through a phase of singing Whoooooooaaaaaaah Bodyforrrrrrrrrrrm, Bodyform for yooooooo, used to get some funny looks with that number.

  • snuff - flibbydibydid or something ep was hilarious. lots of punk cover versions of songs from adverts

    Quickfit fitter, shake n vac etc

    awesome

  • Found myself singing a mish mash of lines from Joanna Newsome's Y's album this morning.

    Needless to say my pace wasn't what it could've been.

  • i whistle when i ride, both for myself and to ensure that people know where i am. If I sang, they'd throw things..

  • ^ the above is true

    (the whistling bit - no comment on her being a tall version of alanis morissette - does that make her alanis morrismaxi?).

    They get stuck in my head as decent slow/fast cycling rhythm songs. Mainly it's whatever I last heard or that I am currently listening too. I also tend to burst in to air drumming on straights. Not that I can drum.

    A lot of Springsteen, actually. That's a common theme in my cycle-singing.

    Bouquets of flowers? Boxer shorts?

  • i love you luci..

  • running up that hill, with Almac68

    cheers DJ.. i was thinking more..

    it's me..
    i'm crappy,
    and want to go home now..

    i'm bored of these mountains
    and long for the london streets
    and shouting at peds and rozzers..

    ..to the tune of wuthering heights
