singing along
Harmonizing with music
Singing along is joining in with music that's already playing, matching the words and melody as you hear them.
The phrase implies following rather than leading—you sing along to a song on the radio, a performer at a concert, or a group already in progress: Everyone was singing along by the second chorus.
A singalong (one word) is an event organized for this purpose.
