This is actually something most of us do already.  Badly.  My sainted husband scares our two cats (and most of your neighbors) when he bursts into song when he showers.  The thing is his vocal talent is very similar to that of Grace Adler (from Will & Grace) except she’s doing it for laughs.   I hope.

This then is the perfect time for Him Indoors, and every other naked man, under self quarantine, to really learn how to develop your musical talent and be able to sing your heart out without causing a divorce.  And if you are single , maybe it could be a reason to disobey the distancing rule , and invite someone over for a soapy duet.

The habit all started  when some bright (and clean) spark realized that bathrooms have great acoustics.  As bathroom tiles don’t absorb sound, your voice bounces back and forth around the room before fading away. And because the shower is a small space, it boosts your voice and even adds a little bass, making your singing sound more powerful.  Anyway that’s what Elvis said, and he not only indulged, but allegedly one day in Las Vegas a naked Tom Jones when he was taking a shower.  Talk about the Green Green Grass of home. 

According to People Magazine (that I found in a bathroom) even celebrities sing in the shower. Actor Jack Black likes to belt out Led Zeppelin. Wyclef Jean digs a little Bruce Springsteen. Colbie Caillat warms up her voice in the shower with a little Amy Winehouse .

There’s just something completely satisfying about singing in the shower, and everybody can become a  rock star just while they are in the bathroom.  Ask my husband..  I doesn’t matter  whether you have a voice like Madonna  or cannot carry a melody if it had a handle.  So if you’ve never tried it, now that you are stuck in the house, just pick a song, grab the showerhead and put on your own private concert. 

Maybe carefully ignore the neighbors when quarantine is over just in case.
