[Sir Creep 7,070]

He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother - Hollies
Vehicle - Ides of March

Undone - Guess Who (FTR, this is a very challenging song to do, and for that reason I love trying it once in a while.  If you can sing at all give it a try)

Rocket Man - Sir Elton John (actually anything by Sir Elton, I actually sound more like him than he does.  Don't know why, it's a gift [unless you hate him]).
Teacher or Aqualung - Jethro Tull (actually anything by Jethro Tull, I actually sound more like Ian Anderson than he does.  Don't know why, it's a gift [unless you hate him]).

Sir C.

 

(Edit - I'm pretty serious about the Ian Anderson comment, but dead fahkin serious about Sir Elton).

All the Worlds Karaoke machines should be axed to tiny bits and burnt.

Then the ashes should be mixed in with raw sewage.

[msc 18,477]

The only time I was ever coerced up to do karaoke, the karaoke machine promptly and permanently broke down. I suspect this was to save the human race.

[Sir Creep 7,070]

The one and only time my ex-wife performed karaoke, it was to Fiona Apple's "Sleep To Dream" which is certainly obtuse and dreary and surprised me it was even on the machine (also tells you when this happened lol).  Fiona was like her favourite artist.  She did a decent enough rendition as I recall.  Singing wasn't the issue, just doing it in public.

I am astonished karaoke is still 'alive', not been in a pub with one for 20+ years.

 

 

However, fitba games probably are Group karaoke.... So...

 

Broad black brimmer.

Boys of the old brigade.

All off to Dublin in the green.

Graffiti on the Wall.

Come out ye black and tans.

Go home ya British soldiers.

Give me bullets in my gun.

Boys behind the Wire.

 

 

Etc etc, far better received than in a pub full of drunks. (I'm usually in a pub full of drunks at the fitba tooooooo).

Along with the 'singers'.

[TQR 14,398]

I've only done karaoke once, apparently. Fucked if I can remember, but I'm told I smashed Lithium by Nirvana out of the park.

[Toast 16,141]

Yeah, actually I've only done karaoke once, having been forced into it by an over-keen temporary landlord at the local. 

I chose 'Red Red Wine' which I was planning to deliver in a stagey semi-spoken word style for comic effect only. 

He fucking ruined it though, kept grabbing my arm and pointing to the words and completely messed up my, er,  individual take on it.  Yes, I know the words, thank you, and I know the tune I JUST CAN'T FUCKING SING IN TUNE SO LEAVE ME BE.
