Go to Karaoke Song: What is yours? (1 Viewer)

Summer of 69.

Tried Run to You one time but it was too high, but that was ten years ago and I've been voice training in the interim (no, not for karaoke). Maybe I could do it justice now.

 
Not used for actual Karaoke but I can sing along perfectly to Echo and the Bunnymen. My singing voice is a lot like Ian McCulloch I guess.

 
Papa Was A Rollin' Stone by the Temptations.

Some bad talk going around saying daddy had three outside children and another wife.......and that ain't right.

 
I got a standing O unexpectedly at a bar for doing Give it Away. It's easy to do songs you have heard a million times. I will do Arcade Fire (if they have any) if I ever get trashed enough to do it again.

 
I've done a lot of karaoke over the years, here are my top 3:

1. Plush - Stone Temple Pilots - especially good later in the evening, when any high notes I could hit are completely gone due to age and alcohol

2. Don't You Forget About Me - Simple Minds - a DJ picked this for me at "Challenge Karaoke" and it has been a staple ever since (that guy was good)

3. Every Rose Has Its Thorn - Poison - nothing like a power ballad to get the crowd on my side. Was especially good in The Apprentice/Rock of Love years when Bret made his comeback...

 
Anyone ever tried a Sting/Police song at Karaoke? Oof. I can hit all the notes in head voice/falsetto but it doesn't sound right and trying to hit them full voice is a nightmare.

 
Funniest Karaoke performance I saw was the guy who looked like he just stepped out of revenge of the nerds, really dorky looking. He did Get Out of my Dreams by Billy Ocean...except every time it got to "get in to my car" he yelled "get onto my C##K" in kind of a heavy metal demon type voice...kept it up for the entire song.

 
I did karaoke at a work event for the other weekend for the first time in a decade at least. "Boyz n the hood." Unedited. Killed it.

"Punk a$$ trippin', but it's aaaaalllllriiiiiight….."

 
I was at an Irish pub yesterday, and they had a karaoke contest. Five people got up on the stage and did the first five minutes of "I've Seen All Good People" by Yes.

It was bizarre, hypnotic, yet strangely appealing. They were all in their mid-forties, (two were women) and it was obvious that they had rehearsed the routine many times. They enunciated perfectly, each of the five only singing their part in the song, and then harmonizing perfectly. They even had someone playing the flute.

When they got to the do do do do do do do part, the whole place went crazy.

I have never done karaoke, and likely never will.
I have once and just repeated "mother####er" into the mic over and over before they cut it off. 

I likely never will again.  

 
Been Down So Long by The Doors. For some reason this deep cut is in every karaoke book. I can nail this without looking at the lyrics completely blacked out. Which I have done countless of times. There's a local place that has When the Music's Over. 12 or so mins of greatness when the mood hits.

I'm seriously awesome at this. Done at twice. First time the DJ kept skipping our entire table forever so I decided to change my song to the longest I could find. This was it. Stood on the bar stool. Hung from the rafters. Instrumental parts were great. Sang "I'm the lizard king, I can drink anything!" "Do you drink Tequila and OJ? Because I dooooooooooooo"
