A Wannabe Barney

All during work today, I had Close Range in my head and because of this I became unaware of my surroundings ... Thinking that nobody else was around I started singing 'Close Range' very loudly with all the Bernard whoops and shrieks, thinking that I would feel like a fool if anybody saw me ... After finishing the line, 'Youve got the world right in your hands' I turn around to find three company directors staring at me and standing only about two metres away with looks on their faces like they thought I was a freak... Talk about embarrasment ... I just casually smiled and walked away .. An hour later one of them came up to me and said that she would of prefered me to sing Regret ... So in my moment of embarrasment, it was comforting to know that she knew New Order ...

Anybody else ever been caught out belting out to a New Order song ...

so if i want to get chicks i just have to sing close range to them

nah, I wouldn't say Close Range ... Try something by Barry White ...

I've been caught singing True Faith very loudly on a bus with headphones on.

Although why the bus was wearing headphones is anyone's guess....

Many times, fortunately I work with three other people who are also singing to themselves reguarly, so I have to put my NO tuppence in as well. The good thing about singing NO is you can't actually sound any worse than Barney

Boom! Boom! 2

I get caught all the time at work. So it lead to this one instance where my colleages and i went to a kareoke bar to demonstrate our prowess only to be booed out of the place by angry asian businessmen!!!!

Did it at work today, and I didn't care what anybody thought of my singing. "True Faith" came on the 'oldies' lunch hour of the top 40 station that the secretaries listen to. Guess I didn't do too badly as they did NOT tell me to not give up my day job!

Whistling must be banned

are you one of the seven dwarves then?

I used to do a radio programme on a local station. Of course New Order got played every day. Once, I was loudly singing to it and the technician (inadvertently, he has claimed ever since!) disconnected the minidisc and treated the whole city (or at least our puny audience) to my excellent rendition of REGRET.

Funnily enough, not a single listener complained (then again maybe I did not have a single listener!)

i can usually sing silently until i get to the whooping parts. im sure people wonder why im always whooping under my breath. but screw them anyway! its not my fault they are so catchy

You'll NEVER catch me singin along out of tune to my favourite New Order classics.....oh no!!..... that's because I'm usually far too busy necking my beloved bottles of beauuutiful soyder to even bother givin' a fuck about trying to outwarble the Barnster....arf!!
