    I'd imagine its something along the lines of the whole losing your identity when you are having a number two, the sense of anonymity one gets the illusion of makes it feel like no one else can hear you.

    Or maybe having a hot shower can make you feel good you just HAVE to sing

    Re: Why do people sing in the shower?

    The closeness of the walls means the sound echoes back more, so unless you're completely tone deaf you'll be able to quickly correct the pitch and hence you sound better. Also, you have to sing up over the noise of the water, so you project your voice a bit more.

    Hey, instead of 'unplugged' sessions, there could be a whole series of performances from the shower - "Girls Aloud in the Shower". Err...

    the reverb from the walls and moisture makes your voice sound better too so you sound like the backstreet boys

    I think that would be an excellent performance. I'd probably watch it with the sound off but I think I'd enjoy it none the less.

    You forget who you are when you poo? I think you may be trying too hard.

    was saying yesterday that the only way I'd ever do Karaoke would be if it was in a shower stall.
    anyone want to start a Showeroke franchise? Look forward to seeing it on Dragon's Den.
