Miscellaneous: Belter

Belter

By Anonymous - 11/10/2010 22:29 - Canada

Today, I attended a musical. A new song was played, and I thought I'd heard it before because it sounded strangely familiar. I sang along quietly as the song progressed, positive I knew it. Anticipating the next chorus, I belted out the lyrics with all my heart. It was instrumental. FML

Your song

Today, I auditioned for the musical at my school. Before I sang my song, I gave my music to the director. She said "Oh, I love this song!". After I sang it, she told me, "It's okay, I still like the song." FML

Today, I was at a band concert with 500 other people. The song they were performing stopped, and I loved it so much I stood up and clapped. Everyone stared, while I slowly realized the song wasn't over. FML

Today, I went to see one of my favorite bands. When they started playing my favorite song I whipped out my video camera and sang along. As I was reviewing the video later, I realized that I couldn't even hear the band over my horrible singing. FML

Today, thinking I was alone in a public bathroom, I started singing the words to my favorite song. A minute later that I heard a toilet flush, so I just sat there petrified. The other person sarcastically picked up the singing from where I left off. FML

Overrated

Today, out of pure boredom, I decided to listen to the soundtrack from a musical. When I got to the love song, I thought about my anxiety and where I stood with this one guy, and ended up crying to myself. The musical was Jesus Christ Superstar. FML

Today, I was singing the National Anthem at a school game and totally forgot the words. So I kept singing the same two lines over and over. FML

Waxing lyrical

Today, at a party, I tried to play it cool by pretending to know all the lyrics to a song, but ended up singing the wrong words and embarrassing myself. FML

Today, I was at a local talent show and during a piano performance I had to go to the bathroom. I sang along in the bathroom but was unaware how loud I was until I walked out and everyone started applauding me while the pianist was still playing. FML

"If I could turn back time…"

Today, I came into work early to clean equipment, with my headphones on, singing to myself. I lost track of time, and wound up with the entire office watching me belt tunes out. FML

Make an entrance, not a scene

Today, I was a guest performer for a school orchestra concert a grade above mine. When they called my name, I didn’t hear them, so when they started the song hundreds of people watched me run on stage. FML

YDI 100% if someone was singing "with all their heart" next to me I'd be so pissed. I paid to see the performance not to listen to a random audience member.

You must be one of those annoying girls who thinks she can sing really well and takes every opportunity to showcase her vocal abilities. Whether you can really sing or not isn't the important issue, however. Just try to be a tad less annoying op.

You totally deserve it; one of the most annoying things that can happen at a musical is someone singing along, regardless of whether it was an instrumental moment or not.

To 273, actually I can't read your profile with the phone I'm using. So I'll say sorry for assuming. But hey, you know what they say about assuming. ;-) To 267, I feel compelled by my sense of self-entitlement to join this popcorn party. Om nom nom.

Gross. You're probably the annoying ugly bitch no one wants to sit next to because she sings along loudly. YDI.

Oh shoot, in all of my ranting/Grammar Nazi praising I neglected to actually comment on the FML itself. So... To OP: honey, learn some theater etiquette. I was in choir and drama for six years, and nothing bugs us (us being performers) more than people in the audience behaving rudely. I'm sure you just got carried away, but for future reference, what you did was actually quite rude.
