Had a woman invite me out to karaoke, but I don’t think we’re compatible long term so I’m taking notes from this thread.
Right now, as someone not from the US, star spangled banned would ruin the evening more than anything else I could think of. Everyone can recognize it, arguments would follow.
Saw this irl once. Two dudes, totally tone-deaf decide to sing Aqualung by Jethro Tull…
…as a duet.
Same bar had a dude that would sing Disney princess songs every night. He never went home alone.
Shout out to Dante’s in Seattle!
The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. It’s a Debbie Downer of a song, it lasts forever, and it gets really repetitive.
I did this with “Everybody Hurts”. Everybody went outside.
Wrecking Ball- Miley Cyrus.
I could butcher anything, but that, I’ll butcher it with glee.
If you would have said Party in the USA, I would be up there butchering it with you.
In the arms of an angel…
Best answer, IMO. Whole bar in tears.
Instrumental version of Tequila
What’s New Pussycat, 21 times in a row.
“Hey hey wait. Let’s throw in one It’s Not Unusual”
In the UK any of the below should do the trick, with the added bonus of possibly getting you stabbed and/ or glassed:
Gary Glitter - My Gang
Rolf Harris - Jake the Peg
Lostprophets - Last Train Home
The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot. A jaunty little sea shanty about a ship sinking in a storm and killing everyone on board.
I sang that two nights ago, at our local open mic. Went over very well, but then again the average age was probably over 70.
It’s a banger though, as long as everyone in the bar is over 35.
Wouldn’t work as I’d be singing along
This is definitely the wrong answer.
Baby Shark, followed by Wonderwall.
“what what in the butt” with the dance, no censorship to save them when it’s live.

I find it quite a thrill…
