Freestyle Friday: Things that make me go la, la, la





I love this quote that has been circulating around Facebook. For me, I normally collaborate and listen. But, what will also trigger me to start singing Ice, Ice Baby is when someone says, "Turn off the headlights."




I am notorious for breaking into song on a regular basis. A simple few words can invoke a performance. Here are just a few that had me singing this past week. (Click on the phrase to start the song from the exact location. I embeded the videos as well, if the link doesn't work for you.)



Don’t worry - I think this one gets many of us


This is a story - NPR gets me every time. 


Why you gotta be startin’ somethin' - Ok confession, I only use this expression because of this song. I have small children; this is said a lot.


I can’t stand it - I can't quite remember why this came up, but I'm sure it was one of those nails/chalkboard moments.


Kill the headlights - I was parked outside of the University where my husband works, and was waiting on him to walk out. I said, "I should kill the headlights" --and then of course the song follows. 


This happens to me all the time. What phrases make you break into song?
