While we are not a family of gifted vocalists, we still love to sing. I think our random musical outbursts can startle some people, but we've turned it into the MADE YOU SING IT game. It's kinda like the tv show where the person has to finish singing the lyrics to popular songs - except we don't sound that good. (by the way, this is another curse that started with my mom!)
Goes like this - any family member that gets the urge will start to hum or sing a song. Then they stop and...
wait for it...
wait for it...
...within a few seconds, someone else will have to finish the lyrics. I swear it's a cumpulsive thing with us. I don't care if it's a nursery rhyme or something by Papa Roach - we can't help ourselves. Apparently, it's also a condition that is infectious. Jim and Alicia have also fallen victim to our dreaded disease. Secretly, I think they start singing just so they can make fun of our lack of vocal skills as we MUST finish the song!
So let's see how good you are.... can you resist the urge to finish the following lyrics???

Ok - so #8 is a little more obscure but it's one of those songs that makes me laugh when I hear it. How many did you *sing* as you read it?? Gotcha - and MADE YOU SING IT!

8's not obscure! But I don't know 1 and 10 off the top of my head. The rest? I am humming away.
