Summer Singing

We just had a long weekend and I'm sure that lots of people had campfires. I see and hear about more and more people having outdoor fireplaces in their backyards too. So, I'm wondering whether there was a lot of singing going on. And, what were people singing?

When I think about campfire singing, it's mostly the girl guide stuff I think of first:
  • Fire's Burning 
  • My Eyes are Dim 
  • Make New Friends 
  • Land of the Silver Birch 
  • Kumbaya, etc. 

Then, there's pop stuff like:
  • American Pie 
  • Stairway to Heaven 
  • Bridge Over Troubled Water
  • Hey Jude (wasn't that cool at the Olympic Opening Ceremony?)

And what about:
  • the Gilligan's Island and Brady Bunch theme songs
  • I wish I were an Oscar Mayer Weiner ; )

And my kids might sing:
  • Pumped Up Kicks
  • Somebody That I Used to Know
Do you sing around the campfire? What do you sing?
