Sheldon is an impressive singer. He was spot-on when he sang "L'chaim" and knows all of the classic Christmas songs. During his childhood, I'm guessing he sang frequently with his MeeMaw/mother, I know there was a lot of leftover influence from his Pop-Pop (who I see as some quirky, inventor sort of guy). Maybe Mary forced him into participating in the chorus at church?

Yet he doesn't know who Radiohead or Miley Cyrus is, and jeered Leonard for singing The Black Eyed Peas in the car ("What are you doing?!" "BLEEDING FROM MY EARS!" lol). His normal pop-culture ignorance just makes the Taylor Swift obsession even funnier, though. But it fits to me too. It's so sweet. I wonder which songs he listens to, though, because her style has changed over the years. Since he was singing "Shake It Off" I'm guessing it's the modern, popular ones. (Maybe he downloaded her album 1989 off of iTunes, bahahaha.) "Blank Space" is my favorite, and I thought "Everything Has Changed" was kind-of a Shamy song -- I listened to it a lot after the ILY. A lot of her earlier songs are super sappy, the stuff Sheldon would usually mock. She wears short shorts, I wear t-shirts...

I think the writers just mend Sheldon's music taste to fit the joke, though -- his aversion towards listening to music in the car, I think, is just because he doesn't think it's the appropriate place for it. Or because Amy was getting way to crazy while listening Neil Diamond and it was too much for him. :)

My understanding was that he decided that he would be more productive work-wise if he if was anxious and listening to women talk was supposed to make him more anxious..... or something like that.

amy should have just started talking about sex to him...or taken off her sweater...that would have definitely increased his anxiety levels!!! :p

It's nice to imagine that just MAYBE they wouldn't have been able to finish their little experiment because Sheldon would have found himself helpless to fight against ANOTHER little experiment at that point.  :spiteful:

I think that would have been a BIG experiment.

I think Sheldon knows Bon Jovi, too. Amy was playing Dead or Alive on her harp during boyfriend/girlfriend singalong night and he supposedly knew he was supposed to sing "wanted" even though he was too distracted to sing.

We should make a list of the songs Sheldon seems to know/like... :p

 

"Soft Kitty"

 

"Shake It Off" - Taylor Swift  :rofl: he's now a T-Swift fan and I will never get over it.

 

"Dead or Alive" - Bon Jovi 

 

"L'chaim" - Fiddler on the Roof

 

Star Wars Theme, Star Trek Theme, Firefly theme, Ninja Turtles theme, Super Mario Bros. theme, etc. etc. etc.

 

"Any Way You Want It" - Journey (he and Beverly sang it when they did karaoke together)

 

An assortment of songs from Rock Band: "American Woman" by The Guess Who and "Under the Bridge" by Red Hot Chili Peppers (Raj was the lead singer)

 

The Periodic Table song! :D

 

"Good King Wenceslas"

 

Film scores for movies he enjoys: Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Superman/other superhero movies, etc.

 

And I'm sure he's familiar with tons of hymns and Christian music, from Mary.

 

This is all I can think of so far.

 

EDIT: Oh yeah! And that song they sang in "The Work Song Nanocluster" when they were trying to stay awake while making Penny Blossoms:

 

"Someone's in the kitchen with Din-aaah... 'Cause I sold my soul to the company store!"

It kills me that he at least likes one Journey song. I love Journey and am constantly made fun of for it.

Thought I would write my report for the second half Shamy part in here since batman already wrote up a full report.

 

Sheldon and Amy are having date night in her apartment. There are about 3 or 4 small candles lit on the table, Sheldon is drinking milk and Amy is drinking wine. Amy says she is happy that despite him working non stop he didn't forget date night. It then pans over to Sheldon who is still wearing the brain scan cap thing and is not looking at her. He says something to acknowledge that he heard her. Amy says come on Sheldon we agreed not to bring work to date night. Sheldon says good job keep it up, that nagging is causing his anxiety levels to go up. Sheldon then says that he can both have a conversation with her and work at the same time. Amy asks him how his day was and he responds with what. He clearly can't do both.

 

The next scene, Amy tells him that she is worried about him and that he hasn't been eating or sleeping in days. He says some of the best scientists were crazy when they made discoveries. Sheldon says Sir Issac Newton made his discovery of something while thinking he was an armadillo. Amy says that's not true and Sheldon says maybe it is maybe it isn't, I have been hallucinating. Amy asks Sheldon to take the cap thing off because honestly it is starting to smell. Sheldon says he knows and that it has replaced Godzilla's roar as his primary source of anxiety. Finally Amy orders him for the last time, take off the cap. Sheldon then says what if I don't, what are you gonna do about it, and before you answer can I have my dessert?

 

Quick pan to the next scene which is Sheldon sitting on the bus saying his girlfriend kicked him out. There is a man next to him that he is talking to, but then the man turns into a man with an armadillo head. Sheldon says something like I knew you would understand armadillo Newton.

Boy I wish the Lenny thread would just have a percent of positive energy this thread has  :fi_lone_ranger: .

tbh, some parts of the new episode upset me a little bit, but I choose to ignore it and look at the bright side instead. I understand that we cannot get rainbows and unicorns all the time, there must be some drama in the relationship.

I feel really bad for the Lenny's right ow.  It's hard when a couple that you ship doesn't seem to behave in a way that you hope/wish/expect/want them to.

 

The Shamy's have done plenty of hand-wringing in the past over Sheldon's ass-hat behavior toward Amy and Amy's doormat demeanor  It got so bad that some people actually started a separate Shamy Spoiler thread where only positive and encouraging posts were welcome.

 

I hear you Lenny's and I feel your pain.

You should try to work on changing it :) Start with posting more positive posts every once in a while. Every little bit will start changing people's way of thinking :)

Dana, thanks for sharing your part. I laughed out loud.

Agreed. Sometimes people get so caught up in seeing what they aren't getting that they stop seeing and appreciating the positives. I frequently read the Lenny thread and thats what I see happening there now. And it makes me sad cause there are some good things happening for that ship. There are so many little things going on with Lenny at the moment which will lead to bigger things down the road. Maybe pointing those out in some posts and celebrating those nice moments, however small they might seem in comparison to the past, would help.

Agreed, I think this episode is one of those you have to SEE it to LOVE it type deals. There are parts I think I will enjoy, i.e. the Sheldon game for Amy experimentation and the comeback of the council of ladies. Then that scene where Leonard and Penny sing soft kitty to him after Amy kicks him out I am like ...really?

  Here is my main beef with it Amy is doing her damnest to make him a better MAN, not overgrown boy. Amy is not forcing him or saying  ":You better man up or else" but she wants this change to happen organically. Then here come Lenny to foil her efforts by treating him like their child after she has made him be accountable for his actions. In the parenting world it would be akin to finally getting your kid to see the light and understand why they were punished to have fun step mom swoop in and buy them ice cream and say it doesn't matter.

  I know we cant have sunshine and rainbows all the time and I am game for a little turbulence but please oh please can we stop treating Sheldon like he is a child that is being shuttled between three parents?

Agreed, and I think this is why Amy is doing things like teaching him to drive.  She has no intention of being his parent, or taking his crap, and he's becoming a better man for it.  Good for her.

 

(This is also why one of my favorite Shamy moments is the apology scene in her lab.)
