I hate karaoke in general. I despise listening to drunken idiots who think they can sing get up song after song after beer after beer after beer to 'perform'. The worst part? Their drunken friends who cheer them on and make them think they are better than they really are.

Sorry guys. The thing is that I can tell if I suck at singing a song, and I won't try it again. There is one song I love, "To Sir With Love" by Lulu. That said, I just can't do a decent job of it, so I try to stick to singing it in the shower. When I do karaoke, I try to pick something rowdy that gets the crowd going, rather than clearing the room. "Old Time Rock and Roll" is one of those, although personally, I am not overly fond of it. "joy to the World" by 3 Dog Night is another one. Anyone that sings off-key makes me cringe. Add in some screeching on the high notes or bad falsetto, and I am ready to throw things. People who stand up on stage swaying to an imaginary beat and singing in monotone make me wonder why the emcee is even letting them take time away from those of us who CAN sing. Oh, yeah, and the lady sitting at the end of the bar all by herself? You are NOT Patsy Cline. Give it up. I used to do karaoke and I must admit I loved to sing some of the songs on this list.

LOL The tiny hippie could have lost a loved one who sang that song and any other attempts at singing it killed her eardrums, and she still could have had pent up anger over the loss. Or the aliens may have programmed her. :D GREAT BLOG!!! JJ None…I’m such a ham and would want to stay and sing and sing and sing. LOL

And I must say I really enjoy your writing. It's witty, clever and even has insight. It made me think. I can learn some stuff from you since I just started my own lil bloggie blog! AnyWayZ to answer the question I didn't have to think for long to come up with this damn song I hate so damn much called, "Kiss Me" from like 1999 or 2000. Oh for he love of Gnochi I just can't stand it and no one but no one can understand why maaaaaaaaan! Ok I don't even know who the girl who sings it is but even after all these years I still hear it in my head. "Ooooh kiss me...blah blah blah...moonlight...lead me...blah blah...open door...blah blah blah blah...so kiss me" Are you sick yet?? And yes I agree that Culture Club songs could prob do that...to guys! But as a bonafide, "I Love the 80's" chicka i don't mind them. But again I can be a little off sometimes...always been, ahhh but I digress. Ok yes Culture Club is kinda an Iconic joke these days especially when you see good old unboyish george these dayz (angry little bugger idn't eh?)but I can still Jam to "Do you really wanna hurt me" and "Karma Chamellion" to this day. Don't get me exact for those titles. Anyway now that I've left this book on your blog...nice writing ya and yall. Chao.

Just lack every night has it's Don-on-on-on. and "Let's Get It On." by Marvin Gaye. That's enough for me to develop a crack addiction. Is there a way tourettes manifests itself in physical violence? If so, that's what I'm claiming next time I hear some drunken cum shoot scream this out. “Every Rose Has It Torn” by Poison.

I can never resist doing "Love Shack." Ones I hate: Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald American Pie Anything country, and if I hear some drunk abercrombie jerkoff ruining "Friends in Low Places" one more time, I swear I shall snap. Nothing Compares 2 U - NO drunk chick can pull this off. NO ONE. Anything stupid and poppy, like Britney Spears, etc. White guys who sing "Baby Got Back" There's more, but I'd end up with enough for a blog.
