what are some of the occasions where you would sing. Like "happy birthday". i can't think of anything, so could you please just toss in some ideas. Can be spiritual/cultural. Anything really.
How about someone's birthday?
When you say "like happy birthday" what else do you have in mind? You can sing just about anything: "good morning" etc.? Make up your own jingle for most any occasion.

You could sing a song to wake someone up in the morning, or to get someone to go to sleep.
Certainly! Singing is a common activity for various occasions, both spiritual and cultural. Here are some examples for you:
1. National anthems: Singing the national anthem is often done on important national holidays, such as Independence Day or during sporting events.
2. Religious gatherings: In many spiritual traditions, singing hymns or devotional songs is an integral part of religious ceremonies. Examples include Christian worship services, Jewish Shabbat, or Hindu bhajans.
3. Weddings: Singing during wedding ceremonies can happen during the exchange of vows, during the signing of the marriage register, or as part of cultural traditions like the first dance.
4. Funerals or memorial services: Singing hymns or songs of remembrance can be a way to honor and remember the life of a loved one.
5. Festivals and cultural events: Many cultural celebrations involve singing traditional songs or folk music. Examples include Christmas caroling, Oktoberfest, or Diwali festivities.
6. Graduations: Singing school or college anthems or songs of celebration can be a significant part of graduation ceremonies.
7. Sporting events: Chants, team anthems, or community songs are often sung by spectators to cheer on athletes and create an exciting atmosphere.
8. Lullabies: Singing lullabies is a common practice for calming and comforting babies or young children before sleep.
Remember, this list is just a starting point, and singing can be a part of many other occasions as well!
