I find it ridiculous that anyone would actually sing along with the OP/ED in the first place, but each to his own. At least it provides a way for typesetters to convince themselves that they're doing something really important.

How can you not sing along with OP/EDs? As long as the lyrics are readable then you better believe that I'm singing along with them. Everyone that I have ever seen watch anime does the same thing. Personally, I don't think the English translation or kanji are needed for OP/EDs. You HAVE to have the romaji to be able to sing along, but you can always look up translations later at sites like animelyrics.com.

l'm siniging in my heart if l really like the anime ;]
K-On! is an exception, l keep all the songs and music constantly playing in my head unless l'm listening to my pm3 player (wich accidentally plays them as well XD)
l guess we all got intenively charmed by K-On!, at least l find myself unexpectedly into it.

That is... disturbing. I don't think I've met anyone, outside of some adolescent girls, who'd readily admit that they sing along to OP/EDs. Each to his own, but that sends out vibes even my old morose dog would've reacted to. Of course, improvised karaoke while intoxicated is another thing entirely; Starzinger especially used to be great for that...

I'll admit I have sung to a few, very limited OPs because I really liked the song.
Does that qualify me for "some adolescent girls"? If so, I have some changes to my ID cards to get done quick. ;)

Congrats on graduating from being a lower class otaku. Because I've seen over 500 shows, possibly and close to 570 (haven't calculated my stuff yet) and I've sang with about 1/5th of them and only to the notable ones, like KgNE, Gurren Lagann, Melodies (both opening themes kick ass!) and a bunch of others.
