WHY KARAOKE IS BETTER THAN SEX

- With Karaoke, you're always sure you can find someone worse than you are.

- You don't feel obligated to buy someone dinner for singing Karaoke with you.

- When you sing Karaoke, it's OK to have multiple partners.

- It's OK to sing Karaoke with your sister.

- With Karaoke, you never have to be sorry about forgetting your lines.

- It's OK to drink too much and sing Karaoke.

- With Karaoke, no one will complain about the size of your microphone.

- It's OK to sing Karaoke in front of your neighbors.

- You'll never feel uncomfortable knowing your parents still sing Karaoke.

- No one complains about a 3-minute Karaoke performance.

:no: On the grounds that I could one day hold public office I cannot disclose what embarrassment went down. (Girls Just Wanna Have Fun) And there was NO video or photos taken, thus no incriminating evidence :sexywink:


Good times though.

Once I start singing, it's difficult to get me to stop. :wink:

So, corian what are top 3 staple songs that you whip out and usually get favorable responses to?

Most karaoke hacks have 3-7 songs in their repritore.

I will tell you my 3 after you tell me yours.

Depends on where I'm singing - some of the places we go to have frustrating song lists. Let's see ... some of my favorites ...

Pat Benatar - Heartbreaker
Abba - The Winner Takes It All
kd lang - Miss Chatalaine

I found one place that had Olivia Newton-John's Xanadu, and thought I'd died and gone to heaven. More places need that song in their books.

I usually prefer upbeat stuff. Most slow songs I try and sing I feel really silly, like I'm one of those karaoke singers who takes it so damned seriously. (Although I never turn down the chance to sing an awesome Carpenters ballad.)

That's not me. I have no qualms about making a complete fool of myself ... as long as I sing well. I don't care if I look like a fool, but I care if I think I didn't sound so hot. I'm a Virgo and therefore a perfectionist. :wink:

I did karaoke last year sometime with some friends after some bevvies, zoom, and we did Creep. You'd have been amazed/horrified.

:up:

You'd have loved me, I once did "I'm so excited" by the Pointer Sisters. Elliot Goblet style :cute:

No, I don't know that one all that well. I'd like to try "We Live For Love" sometime, though. And "All Fired Up."

I had a gal sit next to me the other night and sing it-she had it done perfectly until the end, where Pat starts screaming "Hell, hell is for..."but I loved how well she did with 4/5s of the song and overlooked the ending.

For those that may be curious, my stables are:

Nights and White Satin-Moody Blues
A Day in the Life-Beatles
Run-Snow Patrol
Dont Fear the Reaper-Blue Oyster Cult
Aqualung-Jethro Tull
White Room-Cream
You Look Wonderful Tonight-Eric Clapton
Rocking in the Free World-Neil Young


I usually get favorble glances, smiles, comments from the patrons.

Other songs I do ok with if the stars are aligned correctly:

Clocks
Warning Sign
Trouble

all by Coldplay

I wish my wife would learn to sing Stars go Blue or Candy Candy by Iggy Pop-so that we could duet together.

My absolutely favorite duet song to do, when I go out for karaoke with one particular female friend who is a FANTASTIC singer:

Enough Is Enough (No More Tears) - Donna Summer & Babs Streisand
