Karaoke anthems

Guys I need some good karaoke songs. I got invited to a karaoke night next week with a girl that's way out of my league but is somehow into me, and I want to sing fun songs. I know absolutely nothing that might pop up on a karaoke machine, outside of MAYBE Nick Cave and some old soul songs. She says she has a friend that has "everything" but I doubt it.

I'm in a fucking panic. What are some fun, easy, karaoke crowd-pleasers that I could pick up?

Death Grips

no

Kokomo

Dick Dale-Let's Go Trippin'
Make the guitar sounds with your mouth.

Mary Jane by Rick James is fun
Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen is a karaoke classic

mr. brightside

If you can belt out Surf's Up all the way through you will be a hero. Bonus points if you get someone to harmonize as a duet.

>mfw OP drunkenly diving into Child Is Father of the Man

Ceremony

>This in a karaoke songbook
OP the safe choice is always Africa, bonus points if you imitate the synth panflute sound

If you sing any Nick Cave song, I guarantee no one will enjoy it. Not Nick Cave fans, not non-Nick Cave fans, not that girl, not any innocent bystanders, not us, not Nick Cave. Please stop.

Don't sing Toto's Africa because it has way more soft, unintelligible spots than you remember. Stick to big Disney songs for Karaoke. seriously, they're more or less failproof. Strangers will join in if you start sucking, and it's all good.

double dubs overrules single dubs here. Have you even awkwardly swayed through minutes of mumbled verses that no-one cares about? Africa is so painful.

Anything by cake is pretty easy to imitate
Beastie boys are always fun as long as you know your shit

I did some coldplay once, it didn't go terribly.

But fuck karaoke in general, sing Korn-Twisted Transistor. I did that too, did NOT go over well.

blue oyster cult burning for you. or thin lizzy.

The Who, if you're feeling ballsy

Most karaoke bars I've been to have the really long Who songs

Rebel Yell by Billy Idol

Really fun song to sing, but you gotta know how to do the "OWWW!" parts

Also, Burning Down The House or Psycho Killer by Talking Heads

Just think Guitar Hero/Rock Band soundtrack

>Singing the harmonies by yourself
Wew lad

Dancing Queen - ABBA

heroes, try to be as melodramatic as possible

Satisfaction
Rock n Roll High School
Blitzkrieg Bop
Twist and Shout
the list goes on

>still thinking anyone is out of my league

Best of my Love

Its the ultimate song to put anyone, anywhere in a good mood, and it will make you look like someone who is fun.
