What song can you karaoke the best?

[Wetzelbill]

I think I bust out a solid version of "Have You Ever Seen The Rain" by CCR. At least lately, anyway. This is not to say that it's actually that good though. What is solid for me is likely a reason for the neighbors to call the cops.

1. "Son of a Preacher Man" by Dusty Springfield, and "Wanted Dead or Alive" Bon Jovi.

[soleft]

19. Wow - that's impressive

[skygazer]

2. I do best with instrumentals

:P

[Cabcere]

25. Oh, you mean like "Great Gig In The Sky"?

:P Geek confession time: I've always kind of thought it would be awesome to be able to do that vocal part, lol. :rofl: :hi:

[datasuspect]

3. l.a. woman by the doors

or "theme to the dukes of hazzard" by waylon jennings.

[MissMillie]

4. I usually get a good reception with "Somebody to Love" by Jefferson Airplane

but I also do "Edge of Seventeen" by Stevie Nicks that people tend to like

And then once in a while I'll do a song that people haven't heard in forever, and they just love it. "Someone to Lay Down Beside Me" by Linda Ronstadt is one of the ones that falls into that category.

5. I don't Karaoke

But if I did, it would probably be either something the Carpenters did, or John Denver, or Alan Parsons, or Dennis Deyoung's "Desert Moon" for which I have an earworm.

[flvegan]

6. "Fire Water Burn" by the Bloodhound Gang

Toneless, no singing. That'd be about all I could do.

[qb]

7. Alice Cooper's Desperado

The audience response was a bunch of blank stares. I think I'll keep my day job.

[Swede]

8. The Sound of Silence.

No,really.

[Cabcere]

26. That would probably be mine, too.

:hi:

[BOSSHOG]

9. Pink Houses - John Mellencamp

And once I did Bernadette by the Four Tops and got a whole bunch of women who joined me on the stage to dance along.

[momophile]

10. My Boyfriend's Back

and saying I can karaoke it 'best' is relative, of course. I suck at singing, but in a small grass-covered bar in the South Pacific after a few warm beers, who cares!

[Lyric]

11. I love doing duets

My two favorites to sing duet with a guy are "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around" and "I Would Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)". My dear friend Mike and I sing Meat Loaf together pretty much every time he comes to visit. He does the best Meat Loaf tribute that I've ever heard. :)

[dropkickpa]

12. wanted dead or alive - Bon Jovi

Always a crowd pleaser, no matter how bad my singing voice is.

[ProfessorGAC]

13. Don't Know About Best. But, My Favorite Is. . .

. . .Superstitious by Stevie Wonder. So many little tricks and vocalisms can be done throughout that song.

The Professor

[NMDemDist2]

14. "I can't Make you Love Me" by Bonnie Raitt

I rock at that one and the shoop shoop song by Cher is good too

[stlsaxman]

18. Won't Get Fooled Again and 21st Century Schizoid Man

i go to some awesome karaoke joints!

:headbang:

[Cabcere]

27. Dude, Won't Get Fooled Again...

:yourock: I'd love to be able to sing like Roger Daltrey, but the whole being female thing kind of puts a kink in that, lol. :rofl: That's an awesome song, though! :hi:

[stlsaxman]

28. i'd LOVE to hear a woman singing it!

it would thrill me to no end to hear a gal do that in a room full of people...

you can do it, Cabcere- just believe!

[Cabcere]

29. I have no doubt that there are some women who could do it and sound awesome

but I am not one of them, unfortunately! :hi: I don't think I have the depth, range, or power to adequately rock that song...I don't know, though, maybe if I got drunk enough beforehand I would be brave enough to take a stab at it! :P

[stlsaxman]

30. Have you heard Pete do it solo with an acoustic guitar?

http://youtube.com/watch?v=B5yymadwxj8

go ahead, try it!

[Cabcere]

[Arger68]

20. "Dust in the Wind" by Kansas n/t

[trof]

21. Most any Sinatra.

Really.
With the right tonsil lube (Scotch) I can sound pretty close to his voice. Did an impromptu Sinatra tribute at a bar in Amsterdam that was SRO by the end.
Didn't have to buy a drink all night.
I like them Amsterdammers.

[Turbineguy]

22. The Last Waltz

I gargle.

[swag]
