re: When a 50+ guy picks up the mic on karaoke night, what is he going to sing?

LA Woman by The Doors, and promptly fricks up the bridge.

It makes me want to stick ice picks in my ears. The bane of cruise ship lounges.

Maybe REMs “Losing (Loosing?) My Religion” or “Don’t Go Back to Rockville”?



PS: Sticking ice picks in your ears is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

My go to is “Gangsta’s Paradise”

I fit the OP's demo and of the songs mentioned thus far it is the only one I know the full lyrics to, but I have never considered it for karaoke... that may change.

My usual picks:

1. Hurt, but only if they have the Cash version; I will frick up the NIN version trying to sing at Johnny's faster tempo. I do sing crown of shite though.

2. I'd Do Anything For Love

3. The End by Mammoth, but just like Meatloaf, I don't pay very good tribute to WVH's vocals; it is really a travesty, if I am honest. I just like the song

Don't do it but if I did, Ring of Fire - Johnny Cash

And you would be wrong OP

Now sit yo azz down while I.bust a little " Funky Cold.Medina" on dis club

Damn test tube BABY!!!

Georgia Satalites a little change in my pocket.

I’ve never done Karaoke and would be horrible. I’m almost 50 and might go with The Humpty Dance if absolutely necessary.
