What are some fun songs to sing karaoke to?

I’ve seen lists of songs with deep lyrics, songs that are upbeat but depressing at the same time, songs not on the radio, and other things like that… But I have never seen a list of songs that are just super fun to sing.

Some examples of things I like singing are Lewis Capaldi, anything by Chris Cornell (though I wish I could have that awesome gutteral/growly sound in my voice), Cottonmouth, Nirvana, RHCP, Tool, etc. I love long sustains and just dudes and dudettes belting out staccato. The feeling of matching pitch and tone you get in your stomach and lungs as the sounds reverberate together is exhilarating. Not to mention the catharsis of putting your heart and soul into singing along with an angry song when you’re pissed.

How about Tenacious D's fuck her gently?

I pulled that off at an impromptu outdoor karaoke event and I had 55-year-old men running up to the screen to check and make sure I wasn't just making up the lyrics as I went.

grady77,

As a male, Mean by Taylor Swift never fails to get everyone in the crowd up and dancing. That and all the small things by blink 182!

RHOPKINS13,

Pretty much anything that let's you belt it out and really yell into the mic.

Most songs from Blink-182 are fun to sing.

+1 to Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond, that's a classic.

I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues by Elton John

Either Get Ready to Die or Party Hard by Andrew W.K.

Come to My Window by Melissa Etheridge if you can hit the high notes

Gompie's version of Who the X is Alice? If you have an audience that doesn't mind cursing and might have fun singing along.

"The Devil Went Down To Georgia" by The Charlie Daniels Band

grady77,

I’ve been so tempted to do this, but there are some long stretches without lyrics and it’s a fairly long song too.

But imagine the joy of blasting out in a crowded room:
Devil, just come on back if you ever wanna try again
'cause I told you once you SON OF A BITCH
I'm the best that's ever been!

grady77,

Lol oh I have! It just hasn’t won out over the gaps and length

spuddaddy,

Bohemian Rhapsody is always fun.

StableStackOfBricks,

I will give warning that sometimes its awkward during the Guitar Solo if youre just standing there or not a dancer

SayJess,

Agreed. If the crowd your with is big Wayne’s World fans, it slaps. But I’ve found more often than not, the 20 minute solos kinda kill the momentum. I wish it was better received, as I am a HUGE Queen fan.

My #1 karaoke song is Rehab by Amy Winehouse

Today,

Don’t go breaking my heart Anything from Queen or Prince or bon Jovi or acdc. In the end, Whiskey in the jar There’s so much good stuff that crowds will sing along to.

RisingSwell,

We got the moves - electric callboy

Presuming you’re fine not exactly being good at it, multiple different style singers and switching is hard. Actually maybe jst to sing and not necessarily kareoke

BlackKong,

Karma chameleon is fire. Pretty much anything by ABBA

albedosaur,

Sweet Caroline - Neil diamond

Take me home, country roads - John Denver

These songs always get the crowd really into it!

AllBlue22,

Tequila!

“Around the World” by Daft Punk. If you can remember the lyrics.

It would actually be funny to see someone drunkenly stumble over the lyrics to that. lol

unguided_rehire,

Rio - Duran Duran

Ginjutsu, (edited )

My Way by Frank Sinatra. Fun fact, it’s actually banned from multiple karaoke bars in the Philippines due to a string of killings which directly resulted from people performing the song.
