Karaoke
So a couple of nights ago I got invited out to a Karaoke night. I usually just stumble upon them on accident.
To me, the whole concept is strange: people earnestly singing songs in front of total strangers, ostensibly for their approval. For free no less. It made me think, why do people do this? Can't I do this in my car or in my office or some other place where I am by myself? Then I realized I am weird myself so decided to create this thread.

Re: Karaoke
Please clarify "do you/have you participated regularly..."
I have participated. I have not done (and do not do) so regularly. I have never done so sober. I have abused Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, David Allan Coe, Merle Haggard, Franz Ferdinand, and Michael Jackson.

Re: Karaoke
cj,
I guess the question is how proactive you are in seeking out Karaoke guy to request a song that you can sing. I realize that a lot of people are passive and either join in as a group or have a song requested specifically for them, that's why I phrased the question that way...

This is not me. I have, more than once, drunkenly belted a well-known tune in an ill-conceived effort to make fun of myself (and win the admiration and validation of the faceless masses, let's be honest).

Re: Karaoke
Karaoke is mad fun with the drunk homies. Rap songs are absolutely horrid for this as are uber hard rock songs. Pick some pop [censored] to abuse that people know. Journey, Bon Jovi, Oasis, classic R&B are all great songs. I personally have decimated The Commoderes "Easy" twice in the past week. Its too long, but still fun to sing. Private Karaoke rooms w/ bottles and friends FTW.
