Same thing different taste

Today, my fiancée told me she was having a bad day while we were lying in bed. Just as she was about to fall asleep I thought it would be sweet if I sang her a song that her Mom sang to her when she was a child. Instead, I was told to shut the fuck up and that I sucked. FML

You Muppet!

By Branski - 29/07/2011 00:27 - United States

Today, at a campfire, I whipped out my guitar to serenade this girl I like with a Nick Drake song. When I was done, she said it was nice, but that my singing voice sounded a bit like the Swedish Chef from the Muppet Show. A couple of people nearby burst out laughing in agreement. FML

Today, my boyfriend asked me if we were going to become "that stupid couple that sings cheesy songs to each other." I just spent the past 3 months writing the perfect song that I was planning on singing to him tonight. FML

Today, I was auditioning for a talent show. I asked my girlfriend if I could sing to her before I went. She said sure. Thirty seconds in, she got up and mumbled, "You're only going to embarrass yourself." 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

Moment of truth

By anonymous - 23/03/2009 00:38 - United States

Today, I was with my girlfriend and she was making me listen to one of her recordings for chorus. As I was listening to it a solo came on, and i turned to her and said "This is the worst fucking solo I've ever heard in my life." Little did I know, it was her solo. FML

By StratMan - 28/05/2011 16:44 - United States

Today, I worked up the courage to confess my feelings to this girl I'm crazy about. I even wrote and recorded a song for her. Instead of listening to it, she gave it to her ex-boyfriend, who responded to my heartfelt words by headbutting me. FML

It really takes balls for a guy to romantically serenade a girl in a soprano voice. It would be a lot easier without them, though.

It's called vocal range. You should be proud of it and so should she.

Song choice is key, OP. Dont try to b Mariah Carey with a Nicki Minaj voice

I am picturing OP sining in Tony Soprano's voice. That is hilarious.

I can't sing for my life, so I sing romantically to my girl. She thinks it is hilarious and it still gets the job done. Need to know what your S.O. would enjoy and if it isn't singing you need to try something else, the fact that mine thinks it is funny has turned it into a sort of comical routine.

Never really a good idea to sing/write your girlfriend a song unless you are a musician by trade. Otherwise it's just embarrassing.

You now have a future career as a comedy singer.

Maybe it was a nervous "butterflies in my stomach" laugh because she thought it was cute.

If you can truly hit up to soprano, then you should be proud. A guy to hit up in such a high register is difficult. Even better if not using falsetto.

Today, I was called by my son's school. They said he'd been forging my signature and comments in his reading book. He didn't forge them. I don't know what's worse: my handwriting looking like a 6 year-old's, or being too cowardly to admit it. He has a week of lunch detention, but I still have my dignity. FML

Today, I went to see the mechanic who'd just serviced my car, because it was still leaking cooling fluid. I started to explain the problem, but he stopped me and asked if I'd had the AC on.
