This is something I like about the internet. Basically any platform that allows any kind of chronological comments/replies between strangers like this, you'll quickly find people replying individual lines of songs like this. I saw this in Yahoo! Chatrooms, I saw this on Facebook, I saw this on Reddit, I see it here. Even only through text, we sing to each other.
