Admit it, you like karaoke, and you're pretty good at it! Well, what's your best number?

Mine is The Weight. But only at a certain bar, after a significant amount of sake...

I do my David Lee Roth or Sammy Hager to a Japanese CD single that features the karaoke versions of "Jump" and "Top of the World". No, not some cheesy instrumentals either; it's Eddie and the boys backing me up while I play my air-guitar along side EVH.

My standard is Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit though I've been known to pull off Queen - Fat Bottomed Girls, the Kinks - Lola, and Hole - Doll Parts too.

Easy, it's the best Karaoke song ever:

"Punk Rock Girl" - The Dead Milkmen

^Great song!

Sir Mix-A-Lot's "Baby Got Back" is one tune that I've been known to do :D

If I had the voice I would do "Sexual Healing" or "Let's Get it On" by Marvin Gaye, but I've yet to get the nerves to even try Karaoke yet, soon though :)

Would have to be Kung Foo Fighting by Carl Douglas. It's just one of those songs you can get into while you sing it - kicks, karate chops, etc,. :)

Kung Foo Fighting; that's a classic! Throw on some Hi Karate (do they still make that stuff?) and you've got yourself some serious karaoke.

I am told I do a mean "Stand By Me". but I have to be pretty much drunk to do it properly, hence I offer no personal opinion as to how good it actually is. :D

ordinarily I'd say I'm a pretty poor singer, I'm not tone-deaf or anything and can hold a tune, but I have not been blessed with good vocal chords.

Jeff, please try to pass this along to the Japanese people themselves. ;) When I was living in Japan, it was a given to hear about 5 or 6 Beatles songs butchered to all hell in between beers during karaoke. :D

:laugh:

Tell me about it. Actually I was invited into a drinking circle with a bunch of salarymen because I knew Uchuu Senkan Yamato :) They got me totally blasted on good whiskey, and paid for a cab back to my hotel for me :)

Folsom Prison Blues by Johnny Cash

These are my three most requested when I go out, but there are about 75 other songs which I do at some time or another.
