    What is your go to karaoke tune? Mine is usually a Whitney Housten number, How Will I Know, or I Wanna Dance with Somebody.

    Or are you someone who hates karaoke? I love karaoke! I remember being in QLD with Miss Mae, Pheesh, Sir Lancealot, Jiro, and Wild Raubtier and we did some karaoke, I sang Don't Speak by No Doubt and this smurfing annoying drama student picked up the other mic and was just so determined to sing over me and ruin it and I was like NO.

    I actually spent one summer working as a karaoke organizer! It was pretty awesome and I enjoy karaoke immensely. There are quite a few pieces that I can sing right off the bat, but the ones that come to mind first are Cohen's Hallelujah, Moon River, and Let It Go.

    Man, I haven't done karaoke in years. I suppose playing guitar and singing for a living takes away the novelty factor of karaoke. When I used to do it though it would usually be Kings of Leon. Use Somebody or Sex on Fire.

    I have never done karaoke. I asked sharky to do it with me at one point, but he didn't want to. I was pretty shocked because he's usually more outgoing than me

    I may be going to Kareoke tonight with my friends (real names) Elvis and James Dean. They are brothers. Though I'm not much of a singer I've been known to toss down The Big Boppers Chantery Lace.

    When I worked for my college, the student lounge area would do karaoke days which I helped run. Due to us not having the pleasure of alcohol to entice people to sing, I was usually tasked with going up and singing something really embarrassing. My boss still has my powerful rendition of Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On.

    My go to themes are:

    Anything David Bowie and Journey as well as...








    Because I apparently have a similar vocal range as Cher.

    We also ended our two contests with a group sing-along. The first one ended with the staff doing Hey Jude and the second ended with everyone doing Bohemian Rhapsody.

    I have never sung karaoke and I honestly don't think I ever will. The thought of it terrifies me.

    Karaoke is absolutely my favourite thing to do with my pals. On Thursday this week was my friends Birthday and she loves Lost in Translation, so her husband booked us two hours in the Karaoke room from the movie, which was awesome. Then about 3 hours after that and more people had turned up after work, we ended up going to a different karaoke place and doing it all again.

    It does rather help that usually in the karaoke shops over here you get to do an all-you-can-drink for ridiculously low prices. The one we usually go to is like 10 p.m - 5 a.m all you can drink for the equivalent of like $22 U.S. They must dread it every time we walk through the door haha.

    my go to song changes up pretty often, but at the moment it's either This Charming Man or Everlong.

    I have to be pretty hammered to participate in karaoke, but if I am and do then I usually end up having a good time.

    My go to tune is Drive by Incubus.
