What are some fun songs to sing karaoke to? - Yiffit.net

I’ve seen lists of songs with deep lyrics, songs that are upbeat but depressing at the same time, songs not on the radio, and other things like that… But I have never seen a list of songs that are just super fun to sing. Some examples of things I like singing are Lewis Capaldi, anything by Chris Cornell (though I wish I could have that awesome gutteral/growly sound in my voice), Cottonmouth, Nirvana, RHCP, Tool, etc. I love long sustains and just dudes and dudettes belting out staccato. The feeling of matching pitch and tone you get in your stomach and lungs as the sounds reverberate together is exhilarating.

My go-to is Kickapoo by Tenacious D. I challenge anyone to start singing that song without slowly channeling Jack Black’s mannerisms by the end of it.

Isn’t that the only way to properly sing The D?

I even memorize the guitar licks just to scat those when JB doesn’t.

The D is so great for singing along. I am not capable to sing belzeboss without that little hand flick Dave does in the movie on: what's the ca-ha-hash?

We Want the Funk - Parliament. It’s straightforward, but there is a lower and higher vocal, both of which you can swap between in karaoke.

Be prepared to have the place singing with you.

Enter sandman - Metallica

Take on me - a ha

Show threadMelancholiaJul 6, 2023
Take on me is a great one! but gotta get the voice really warmed up to have a chance at it

My Way by Frank Sinatra. Fun fact, it’s actually banned from multiple karaoke bars in the Philippines due to a string of killings which directly resulted from people performing the song. Have fun!

“Around the World” by Daft Punk. If you can remember the lyrics.

It would actually be funny to see someone drunkenly stumble over the lyrics to that. lol

Sweet Caroline - Neil diamond

Take me home, country roads - John Denver

These songs always get the crowd really into it!

Karma chameleon is fire. Pretty much anything by ABBA

My #1 karaoke song is Rehab by Amy Winehouse
Show threadspuddaddyJul 6, 2023
Bohemian Rhapsody is always fun.

I will give warning that sometimes its awkward during the Guitar Solo if youre just standing there or not a dancer
Show threadSayJessJul 6, 2023
Agreed. If the crowd your with is big Wayne’s World fans, it slaps. But I’ve found more often than not, the 20 minute solos kinda kill the momentum. I wish it was better received, as I am a HUGE Queen fan.

"The Devil Went Down To Georgia" by The Charlie Daniels Band
Show threadgrady77Jul 6, 2023
I’ve been so tempted to do this, but there are some long stretches without lyrics and it’s a fairly long song too.
Show threadniktemadurJul 7, 2023
But imagine the joy of yelling:
Devil, just come on back if you ever wanna try again
'cause I told you once you SON OF A BITCH
I'm the best that's ever been!

Lol oh I have! It just hasn’t won out over the gaps and length
Show threadRHOPKINS13Jul 6, 2023

Pretty much anything that let's you belt it out and really yell into the mic.

Most songs from Blink-182 are fun to sing.

+1 to Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond, that's a classic.

I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues by Elton John

Either Get Ready to Die or Party Hard by Andrew W.K.

Come to My Window by Melissa Etheridge if you can hit the high notes

Gompie's version of Who the X is Alice? If you have an audience that doesn't mind cursing and might have fun singing along.

How about Tenacious D's fuck her gently?

I pulled that off at an impromptu outdoor karaoke event and I had 55-year-old men running up to the screen to check and make sure I wasn't just making up the lyrics as I went.

Show threadGrimlo9icJul 6, 2023

A lot of great answers in here. Another one that I've never seen/heard fail to get crowd participation is "It's My Life" by Bon Jovi.

Basically any song that has a really catchy chorus and allows you to sing it whether you're on or off-key is a winner, because karaokes are all about having fun with it.

Show threadLeafyPasserineJul 6, 2023
Poker face by Lady Gaga! Anything that lets you shamelessly yell to be honest.
Show threadsofa-sogoodJul 6, 2023
  • Shiny Happy People by REM
  • Love Shack by the B52s
  • Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond
  • Burn Motherfucker Burn by Five Finger Death Punch

I like Long Tall Sally - it's fast and wild!
Show threadgrady77Jul 6, 2023
As a male, Mean by Taylor Swift never fails to get everyone in the crowd up and dancing. That and all the small things by blink 182!
Show threadAssAJul 6, 2023
Anything by Linkin park for me. I would also really like to fuck up a karaoke joint when they let me sing slipknot or drowning pool or something like that. Another great sing along song is radioactive by imagine dragons.

  • Mr. Brightside is always fun, and it’s almost all one note!

  • Pretty much anything by the Goo Goo Dolls

  • All For You by Sister Hazel

  • Learn to Fly by the Foo Fighters

I like a lot of 90s and early 2000s stuff :)

Gotta say for a duet (male/female) keep feeling fascination by the Human League. It’s a fun song, good chorus.

Hakuna Matata… What a wonderful phrase!

My gotos:

  • Hall & Oates - Out of Touch
  • Billy Ocean - Suddenly
  • Lionel Richie - Hello
  • Bon Jovi - Livin’ on a Prayer
  • All 4 One - I Swear
  • Brian McKnight - Back at One

Old school == Best school, IMO

So many people across different demographics get into older songs, regardless of genre. The best songs to sing are ones that you can hit the notes and not put the crowd/your friends to sleep to.

Have fun with it!

As someone who can’t sing high notes.

Everything - Michael Buble

Annie’s Song

Your Song - Elton John.

Whatever you like to sing. I tend to sing classic rock and metal songs because that’s the music I like and they’re fun to sing. It’s not for everyone, but it is for me.

Rape Me - Nirvana, because I can’t really sing and I can do the kind of talking singing he does.
