* ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls:'' In "Dipper vs. Manliness," we technically see Dipper [[UnmanlySecret singing "Disco Girl"]] just after he got out of the shower, standing in front of the mirror in a ModestyTowel. The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGtxGacnqls extended edition]] indicates that he sings in the shower, though.

* Believe it or not, this is what Music/SimonAndGarfunkel's famous song "The Sound of Silence" is actually about ([[{{Applicability}} partly]]). The line "Hello, darkness my old friend / I've come to talk with you again" is often thought to be a {{Wangst}}y line, but it was in fact written by Paul Simon who used to take advantage of the acoustics in his bathroom at night with the lights off, to aid his songwriting. He is ''literally'' singing to the darkness in his bathroom.

That being a small room with hard walls, its acoustics should be bad enough to resign all worries about voice and quality. Add to it that during the bath time one is alone ([[BathtubBonding usually]]) and feels secure ([[CantBatheWithoutAWeapon usually]]), and it makes more or less a light-hearted version of WhatYouAreInTheDark. Though usually someone overhears the singing character anyway. As a narrative device, this usually is an opportunity to show that the character is in good mood and to demonstrate amusing quirks. It is also an effective way to show that a character is preoccupied with showering if another character is trying to sneak around them or [[GoneSwimmingClothesStolen needs to steal their clothes to pass off as them]].
