You are adding to loose cannon. What is already there stays, we only add yours.

Your voice

Explain in a street-style audio what it means and give an example of how it is used. That is all we need.

How does it sound?
Where is it said? Where the expression is used, which need not be only your own patch.

Real-life examples
  • Don’t make Darren best man, yeah. He’s a loose cannon, grabbed the mic last time, called the vicar a melt, and started a conga outside Greggs.
  • My uncle is a loose cannon at family gatherings, you never know if he will tell a moving anecdote about my grandfather or accidentally insult the vicar to his face within the same ten minutes of dessert and tea.
  • The new player is a loose cannon on the pitch, lots of talent, but he might score a screamer from twenty-five yards or get sent off for arguing with the mascot before the kickoff whistle blows the second half.
  • You can't put Jay on customer drinks, he's a loose cannon. Lovely bloke till he starts freestyling opinions after two pints.
  • She's brilliant in a crisis, but a total loose cannon in meetings. One weird comment and the whole room's gone sideways.
The way it is really said, not the way a dictionary would say it.
