Boston Lager. Surprisingly alright. If beer ads told the truth



Spare tyre. Abominable Ale. Truthful beer ads

Karaoke Songs No One Wants To Hear

June 26th 2009 15:43
Thanks to the Chicago Tribune. Here are the songs to avoid at your next karaoke night, and the reasons why. See more tips here.


Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen
Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen
The nearly six-minute-long song contains a 27-second guitar solo and a 47-second musical interlude. Unless the karaoke performer starts head-banging like the cast of "Wayne's World" during that time, expect awkward swaying while the audience stares blankly.


Karaoke Songs to avoid. American Pie by Don McClean
American Pie by Don McClean
This classic folk rock tune runs over eight minutes long. No one should hog the karaoke mic for that long. Save the song for car rides and the end of wedding receptions.


Karaoke songs. My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion
My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion
Seeing Rose and Jack's love story fall apart as Leonardo DiCaprio disappeared into the freezing Atlantic left any 1997-moviegoer blubbering like a baby. What makes you think revellers want to relive that heartache at 11 p.m. on a Friday? The Grammy- and Academy Award-winning song was Celine Dion's biggest hit, but just because it played nonstop in the late '90s doesn't mean it'll fly with bargoers of 2009.


Worst Karaoke. Baby Got Back by Sir Mix-a-Lot
Baby Got Back by Sir Mix-a-Lot
It's the most cliché karaoke rap song, but it's predictability alone doesn't make it cringe-worthy. It's that 90 percent of people who select the song realize after the very first "I like big butts and I cannot lie..." that they have no clue about the rest of the lyrics.


bad karaoke songs
Welcome to the Jungle by Guns N' Roses
Karaoke-goers who want to channel Axl Rose will fail miserably if they attempt this fast-pace, high-pitch tune. They can instead fall back on "Sweet Child o' Mine," right? Wrong. Both songs are from the album "Appetite for Destruction," and they'll both kill the crowd's appetite for fun.
