About
I don't go to Karaoke often, but whenever I do I draw a blank on what songs I might like to sing. Below I've made a list of songs so I'll never have that issue again!
Disclaimer: I'm not a strong singer, and male.... so if you're either a strong singer or female these song choices might not appeal as much! :)
My Karaoke Routine
I don't do karaoke often, but I do feel like I have a comfortable routine..... it's this simple:
- Men at Work - Land Down Under - because it's a fun song, proud of my origins, and easy to sing (almost talking really).... and it builds my confidence up for something more daring.
- La Roux - Bulletproof - a little more dancey, I can't really sing high, but I keep it in an okay range.
- ... something new - hopefully I keep trying new songs.
- Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody - always a strong finish.
