Do you let not knowing the words to a song stop you from singing it?

ive never been much into singing to be honest

Not at all. I sing "Doo doo doo, there's a bathroom on the right!"

No.....even before I could talk or walk my parents said I always made my own words up to music and popular songs played on the radio....If the same song plays now ,I can still burst into singing the very same words ....

I can't say now what the songs were , but it's instant recall if ever I hear one....I think one was Eternal Flame by the Bangals....I would always sing my own version of the chorus to everyone close by amusement....lol  

Nope. "La la la" works if all else fails.

Of course, I sometimes get them wrong when I think I had it right, too.
"Just let me staple the vicar" - Sister Sledge 
"Wash your back" - Cher Lloyd 
"I'm begging you for birdseed" - Duffy
"Excuse me while I kiss this guy" - Jimi Hendrix 
"Every time I think of it I p!ss myself" - Babyface
"Maybe a great magnet pulls ar$eholes towards truth" - kd lang
"Your burgers are the best" - Michael Jackson 
"I believe that the hot dogs go on" - Celine Dion 
"It doesn't make a difference if we're naked or not" - Bon Jovi 
"After you do, he'll never bone ya" - Bobbie Gentry 
"I can't believe you kiss your c*ck at night" - Shania Twain 

Not at all, I can make up the words or la la la la always works. 

Like this favorite with apologies to Elton John: "Hold me closer tiny dancer, count the head lice on the highway, lay me down in beets and lemons, you've had a dizzy day today......."

I never liked the song (loved the video!) so I never sang the song but if I did it would have been

"Dissus Diller" words sung strangely by Michael Jackson

aka
"This is Thriller" 

Nah. I'll make up my own words. 

No,and I don't let not knowing the tune stop me either.

Not usually but then I forget the words to most songs. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at May 24, 2018 9:59 AM MDT

I go into a whistling mode...

If Ella Fitzgerald and Mel Torme can indulge in scat singing, so can I ... and I do.
