I hate the Happy Birthday song, I hate to sing it and I hate to have it sung to me, I think it is awkward and embarrassing. Who agrees?

Same with me. I hate it whenever a huge group of people sing it. I know that they want to celebrate my birthday; but when the sing it, I am just sitting there, looking around at a bunch of people surrounding me and singing to me. It just feels soooooo awkward and it's embarassing too! I feel as if I am a 5 year old child when people sing it to me.

Especially, that is the case when I am at a restaurant and one of my friends just HAS to tell the waiter that it's my birthday. Then, all the waiters come and sing happy birthday and give me a slice of cake, while, again, I'm just sitting there, surrounded by a bunch of strangers singing to me. And, all of the surrouding tables are staring at me too.

Because I don't like to sing (well, only in the shower), it feels weird when I sing it too. Most of the time, I just open my mouth a little a sing in a barely audible voice. When I am with a group of big people, I just mouth it sometimes.

I dont agree.I think you must be in teens and so find it awkward and embarassing.The birthday song might have become old but it carries beautiful memories with it to old people.Why should you feel awkward and embarassing to sing the bday song?Its in a way to show how you care for a person and how united all are in singing and expressing their love for a person.

It's one of those songs where on the day of your birth, everyone will sing it in a nice big chorus and make you feel all warm and loved inside... unless you're above the age of 12, when all that goes through your head is "SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP" as you force a smile of pity rather than happiness and satisfaction.

Yeah, it is very annoying. It's annoying to have to sing it to somebody everytime there is a birthday, and its also really embarrassing to just have to sit there are smile when it is sung to you.

I find it OK. After all someone is wishing a birthday in words expressed by so many people everyday.
