Several posts ago I mentioned that I sing in the car, not the shower. Well, today I thought about what songs really make me want to lose my voice; the songs that you sing along to until your voice cracks/breaks/shatters/melts. Here are some I came up with, most are things I listen to on a regular basis, with a couple oldies (for me at least) from the 80s. Feel free to add to the list!
U2 - 40, Desire, Bad, Where the Streets Have No Name, Exit, Beautiful Day, I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For, One

I'm Not Okay, also by My Chemical Romance. I love that song so much. You should see me karaoke it. I bring the house down.
Oh, my-- "The Whole of the Moon."
I once edited a 72 page full color magazine with the Best of the Waterboys playing in an endless loop for 3 days straight.
I've never recovered, and that's not entirely a bad thing.
You climbed on the ladder
With the wind in your sails
You came like a comet
Blazing your trail
Too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw
the whole of the moon!
Love that song. Love it love it love it.

Queen's "Don't Stop me Now."
Years ago, I lived in a house with no furniture in the living room. Home alone, I'd blast that song and dance 'til I was panting.
Oh- and tag, you're it. See my blog...

Okay, stopping for real now.
Rhys - Geez, what about Lita Ford, while you're at it?
Hahaha! Lita Ford! Wow, that brings back memories of middle school...
My friends and I once made up a groovy dance to her video at a slumber party while hopped up on Skittles and root beer. I'll never admit it, though.
It ain't no big thing.
Bwahaha! Good one. ;)
