✓ But I'm a passionate bathroom singer and like to hum along to my favorite songs while showering.
The verb 'hum' is typically followed by the preposition 'along to' when referring to a song. Also, 'favorite song' should be plural 'favorite songs' to match general usage, and 'during showering' is unnatural; 'while showering' is the correct expression.
