10: “Friends In Low Places” - Garth Brooks
|
|
You lazy bastard! You just want the bar to sing it with you so you don’t look like an idiot when you screw it up.
9: “Barbie Girl” - Aqua
|
|
Frat guys singing this song is not funny. Never was. Never will be.
8: “I Will Always Love You” - Whitney Houston
|
|
And I will always try to get my hearing back by the end of the night thanks to you.
7: “My Heart Will Go On” - Celine Dion (Titanic Theme)
|
|
I recommend only doing this song on cruise ships, though you probably will be pushed off the bow.
6: “I Touch Myself” - The Divinyls
|
|
This song is never sang by anyone we’d actually like to see touch themselves.
5: “Baby Got Back” - Sir Mixalot
|
|
Originally sung by a large black man. Forever after, sung by a skinny white guy during Happy Hour.
4: “I Got You Babe” - Sonny & Cher
|
|
Hey Lovebirds, sing it to each other at home. You’re kinda weirding us out.
3: “Rapper’s Delight” - Sugarhill Gang
|
|
You ain’t down with O.P.P., no one wants to see you “Jump Around”, because there is nothing “Delightful” about you trying to rap.
2: “Summer Nights” - Grease Soundtrack
|
|
Someone please “Hand Jive” the person’s face who chooses this song.
1: “Love Shack” - B-52s
|
|
No talent needed and any guy that participates automatically becomes the Gay Alpha Male of the bar.

OK, I fully admit to the whole Love Shack thing, but it didn’t turn out nearly as bad as my version of The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down
I am SO sick of Baby Got Back. That was all anyone mimicked when I was in college. You couldn’t escape it.
There is nothing quite like a skinny redneck named Jed knowing ALL the lyrics to that song.
True story.
“The Gay Alpha Male at the bar”
Funny! I like that line…
I love it!!!!!
Summer Nights…. UGH!!!!
Too bad you could only use 10.
I’m glad Summer Nights made the list! Another I think that is overdone MANY times, and is absolutely annoying is “Picture” by Kid Rock and Sheryl Crowe.
My friend runs a Karaoke place here on Friday nights only right now, so we go and hang out with him basically every Friday. I’ve heard it all, we’ve got a few great singers, one of which was on American Idol before. But mainly we have a lot of people that think they’re great, and they’re absolutely horrible!
I honestly don’t recall anyone ever doing Love Shack though, but I’m happy that no one has!
Absolutely loved this Skorp, and I can’t wait for the next list!
#11 Piano Man - Billy Joel
I love that song, but wow people butcher it!
Loved this!
OMG! We have been party to many of these songs-I have in fact even witnessed a certain skinny white guy….
Good call, Skorp. But I think I just vomited in my mouth after playing the Whitney Houston and B-52 songs……
I work at a karaoke bar. Feel my pain…lol. I’ve heard each and every one of these songs butchered. Too many times. Also, Journey “Don’t Stop Believing” and pretty much anything by Bon Jovi.
One that should be counted just for the length of the song… Stairway to Heaven!
1. Bohemian Rhapsody
2. Total Eclipse of The Heart
3. American Pie
And don’t forget “paradise by the dashboard light” it goes on FOREVER!
