Spinal Meningitis - Ween
That should clear the place out.
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.
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.
The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. It’s a Debbie Downer of a song, it lasts forever, and it gets really repetitive.
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!
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.
My Heart Will Go On - Celine Dion
I literally cannot imagine a situation where the whole group doesn’t sing along to this. This is a batter answer to, ‘what song to bring people out of their shells?’
Meat Loaf - I’d Do Anything For Love - the original album version where there’s around 20s of motorcycle sounds and vocals start around 1:50.
This was my favorite song to play on a jukebox back in the day. I could put it on 3 times in a row for a dollar at the local bar, and it would take over the sound system for over half an hour. There are enough transitions in it that it flows back into itself fairly well.
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
I did this with “Everybody Hurts”. Everybody went outside.
“what what in the butt” with the dance, no censorship to save them when it’s live.
4’33"
If you went up there and did the entire songs including informing when they movements began and ended … frankly you’d be a legend.
Tequila
The Smallest Church in Saint-Saens
I Need a Hero. Can’t live up to the best version, but I’ll try my best!
