So last Saturday night, after watching both the Chiefs and the Cyclones play like dookie, my girlfriend and I watched the Sound of Music on ABC (which when combined with commercials is 4 hours long, they just don't make films like that any more) Well, I guess the Lord of the Rings were pretty long, but they sure as hell didn't break out into song to explain the dire situations they continuously found themselves in. Coincidentally, this fact brings me to the interesting question that was posed to me that evening. After they escaped from the Nazis and were climbing the hill (pronounced "Freaking mountain!"), my girlfriend turns to me and asks why I've never professed my love to her in song. Huh, interesting question. Well, not interesting so much as odd I suppose. I'm fairly certain I've never professed much of anything in song, other than how Frosty was a jolly, happy soul. I guess there was that time that I exclaimed to the world how exciting it was that Santa Clause was coming to town. But beyond that, I've never professed anything else in song. What an odd kind of world it would be if we all walked around and spontaneously burst into song. In fact, I guess it'd be like the Musical episode of Buffy. (What a splendid lil ditty that was) We'd not only profess out love in song, but also how the dry-cleaners got the mustard out. Perhaps someone should get on that, we have a talk like a pirate day, we should also adopt a "sing about everything" day. Anyway, to answer the question why I've never professed my love in song, I feel the response is something along the lines of 1) It's never occurred to me, 2) I can't sing, 3) I can't write songs, 4) It's never occurred to me, 5) I'd probably laugh too much during the attempt that it wouldn't work anyway, 6) It seems kind of humorously silly, 7) It's never occurred to me, and lastly 8) I can't sing. Have any of you ever professed anything in song? If so, feel free to comment about it, because hot damn, the world wants to know! (Oh, and please provide the lyrics if you have!)

    First, I did not ask you that as they were climbing the mountain. I asked you that soon after Maria returned from the convent and Captain Von Trapp broke up with the Baroness and they finally professed their love for each other in a beautiful song.

    Second, is the reason it never occured to you (which you mentioned more than enough times) because you don't love me enough? That hurts. :(

    Sorry I got the timing wrong, I didn't really remember the exact moment you asked me. And no the reason it never occured to me wasn't because I don't love you enough, it's mostly because I never thought of it. If I regularly professed other things in song, then I certainly would profess my love the same way, but I just assumed that telling you, and giving you cards and such would convey the message silly!

    hahahaha. Honestly, I'm glad you never tried to profess your love in song, because I think I would have a hard time not laughing. Not because I would think you're a bad singer, but because it would be kind of awkward.

    Apparently you've forgotten the time you professed your love to me in song.....or maybe it wasn't directed at me and you were just singing for fun. It was never quite clear to me.

    You lied to me! You have professed your love in song, just not to me! So, how many other people have you professed your so called love to in a musical fashion?
