What is your go-to karaoke song?

Inspired by my misreading of the title of another thread


So you’re at karaoke, you have to pick a song. What are you gonna pick?

Mine has to be Wild Wild West by Will Smith. A great song from an equally great film :wink:

I can’t sing to save my life tho, so I just bet on talking fast instead

I pick any old song of Die Toten Hosen.

This one in particular if I have to pick one:

Sober, 1 beer, 10 beers, always goes :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I don’t sing, but if I were forced to inflict my “voice” on other people, a little Cheap Trick might be fun.

When things go back to normal, I’d love to try my hand at this. Having a woman sing it completely changes the tone:

I am usually the only one who will sing English songs among the groups of friends or family. You can’t find many English songs in Asian karaoke bars, so most of them are pretty old. But it won’t stop me from giving myself and my friends some Wei Shen moments! :joy:

Besides that, there is a Chinese song that usually helps me to cheer up the group. It’s Jackie Chan’s “男子漢” (Nánzǐhàn), which is the localized version of “I’ll Make A Man Out Of You” from Mulan, which also at some point became a meme song that Taiwanese youths adore.

He acutally went to «America’s Got Talent» with this: Tequila! Karaoke #HelberthGong69 - YouTube

You´ll disappoint me if you say you don´t throw in a Take On Me every now and then :joy:

@MrOchoa is a practical man. He combines singing karaoke with ordering drinks. Two birds with one stone! :joy:

Anyways, to answer the question, I don´t have a go-to song, but the last time I was drunk enough to do karaoke I felt like spicing up the endless combination of Japanese and English songs by going with t.A.T.u.´s Я сошла с ума. Had to check and read the lyrics (which I don´t know) beforehand online to have any chance of reading the cyrillic fast enough to “sing” :joy: (My sudden language shift also encouraged a nearby group of Spaniards/Latin Americans to sing a song in Spanish :laughing: )
