oh you and i both know you do it. you get SUPER trashed, and then decide there would be no possible better way to spend your time then to sing or scraem lyrics t oa really important song.

and i don't necessarily mean kareoke. i mean the in the back seat of your ride's car, while walking on public streets, in the bar, at home, etc.


which ones do you pick?
why/what's the signifigance?

mine is:

Allman Brothers Band -- Melissa (sweet melissa)

everyfucking time. EVYERTIME. i gotta belt it out, and pray there isn't a guitar aroudn, becaus ei'll do that too. and i think it's because once when i wasl ike 18 i dropped e with some giflriends, chased it with beer, and then went outside to smoke (cigarettes? why, we have pot! lets do both, was our logic) -- and then i crawled into her jam-room (she has a studio called the 'jam room' in her backyard, i real like professional one) and we layed on he floor for i think atleast 2 hours listening to this song.. and i all i remember was thinking "THIS IS THE GREATEST SONG EVER".. and i've never changed my mind. everytime i haer it, i remember how kickass it is.

I have the tendency to sing 'Levon' by Elton John every now and then. The part where his voice squeaks ('guess I'd better Le-Von'). Annoyance to those around me to no end.

the only time I have ever done that was with the song "American Pie" which I DETEST. I knew all the words though because it used to be played frequently where I worked. It was like nails on a chalkboard for me every time.

FYI, I'm a HORRIBLE singer so even when I get really drunk, I know better than to sing. But on this occasion I was about-to-throw-up-drunk and it was in a bar with friends/coworkers so the damage done by my singing was minimized.

DID YOU WRITE THE BOOK OF LOVE AND DO YOU HAVE FAITH IN GOD ABOVE?

"run to paradide" by the choirboys. omg that is the best song ever to sing when drunk!! especially when the drums and guitars really kick in at around the 40 second mark... or 1:40 when the chorus kicks in. fucking awesome.

pretty much any top 40 song from the past 10 years is incredibly fun to sing when inebriated!!

i quite enjoy the phil collins.

i won't lie. i've been known to ballerina dance to "I Wish It Would Rain Down"

actually there's a lot.

i also tend to like the David Allan Coe but that's because of another aforementioned kr user. we have a set list.

it also includes "Friends in Low Places"

FUCK YES.
tara i swear, i was just coming in here to post that.
that, and my sharona.

Hoping to sing along drunk to some Roxette tonight.

Any song by Linkin Park Me and my girlz up in NYC would just blast it and sing it at the top of our lungs at 3:00am ~ man those were great times.....

mwah! my sharona is a definite!

i've been signing wind it up and since you been gone all night. probably cos' gay bars play shitty music....

oh this is very mood determinate.

The Ramones rates very high...wanting to be sedated probably a good idea in my drunken state to be honest.

Then there's the wrenching sadness of my drunken rendition of Michael Bolton's How am I Supposed to Live Without You...rivals many American Idol outtakes....Willian Hung has nothing on me.

And strangely, Madonna's Like a Virgin and Morissettes - Ironic.

huh. that's irony in itself lol

blondie - one way or another (i always find the part where she goes i'm gonna getcha getcha/ meetcha(?) hilarious when i;m drunk)

guns and roses - paradise city.

and the village people - ymca. it's the only way to get people shy about dancing to dance.

paradise city is fucking amazing when drunk.

Joan Jett's amazingly easy and nice to sing to when drunk as well. i love rock and roll, crimson and clover, i hate myself for loving you.. everything, actually. all the big, campy '80s ones.

the boom song.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO
I'M ALWAYS IN THE DARK
WE'RE LIVING IN A POWDER KEG & GIVING OFF SPARKS...

I REALLY NEED YOU TONIGHT
(BOOM)


etc etc etc

There are a number, for different occasions. When I'm really wasted and stumbling home in the rain, it often seems the moment for a mangled attempt at Violet. Just for obviousness' sake. And when I can't remember the lyrics I just know I've had a wee bit much.

Other popularly mangled efforts (best appreciated when nobody else is around, I can be quite the songbird, and go red for hours if caught):

Ice Ice Baby (I know all teh wordz, and like to show off!)
Come on Eileen (ditto)
Beetlebum
Many Smiths songs, esp. Girlfriend in a Coma (b/c its easy)
Suedehead
Photograph (Def Leppard)
Live Forever
Do you remember the first time
You don't love me (no, no, no)
Walking on thin ice


et fucking cetera

How about "I Don't Wanna Know"? Or is that beyond the pale? No Jacket Required is top work.
