Kangaroo Karaoke

Finally a thread worth posting in. I love to break out into random song (and sometimes dance) so..

Hey kids, shake it loose together
The spotlight's hitting something
That's been known to change the weather
We'll kill the fatted calf tonight
So stick around
You're gonna hear electric music
Solid walls of sound

Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet
But they're so spaced out,BuhBuhBuhBuh Bennie and the Jets
Oh but they're weird and they're wonderful
Oh Bennie she's really keen
She's got electric boots a mohair suit
You know I read it in a magazine
Ah ha, BuhBuh Bennie and the Jets

Hey kids, plug into the faithless
Maybe they're blinded
But Bennie makes them ageless
We shall survive, let us take ourselves along
Where we fight our parents out in the streets To find who's right and who's wrong

Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet
But they're so spaced out,BuhBuhBuhBuh Bennie and the Jets
Oh but they're weird and they're wonderful
Oh Bennie she's really keen
She's got electric boots a mohair suit
You know I read it in a magazine
Ah ha, BuhBuh Bennie and the Jets

Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet
But they're so spaced out,BuhBuhBuhBuh Bennie and the Jets
Oh but they're weird and they're wonderful
Oh Bennie she's really keen
She's got electric boots a mohair suit
You know I read it in a magazine
Ah ha, BuhBuh Bennie and the Jets
Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
 
Struggs, Struggs, wake up man, I've never seen anyone perform in such an alcofrolic stupor

cool 8) 8) 8)

Adam ant has nothing on you :clap :clap :clap :clap

For realism purposes Otis will ask you to unplug the jukebox

Then you can crack him over the noggin with a pool cue :clap :clap :clap



Otis man !! :clap :clap :clap

I will be Bernie for you anyday

:clap :clap :clap :clap :clap
 
Sheesh, is it really my turn

Ive told you I cant sing and I’m not nearly liquored up enough yet.

All right, I’ll do it. Who’s got the list of songs…need something slow, crappy and definitely not challenging.
Why don’t they ever have any Lou Reed on these lists?

Here’s one that fits the bill
If I nail this, who knows, I could even pick up..and there’s plenty of talent here

OK, brace the stage, tie off, suit collar up, mess up the hair, start real slow

Stay away from my window
Stay away from my backdoor too
Disconnect the telephone line
Relax baby and draw that blind

Kick off your shoes, and sit right down
Loosen up that pretty French gown
Let me pour ya a good long drink
Ooh, baby don't you hesitate, 'cause

Tonight's the night
It's gonna be alright
'cause I love you girl
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now
C'mon, angel, my hearts on fire
Don't deny your man's desire
You'd be a fool to stop this tide
Sing this line slow and full of sexual grunt
Spread your wings and let me come inside, 'cause

Now really pump out the chorus and don’t the babes love this
Tonight's the night
It's gonna be alright
'cause I love you girl
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now

Don't say a word, my virgin Child
Just let your inhibitions run wild
The secret is about to unfold
Upstairs before the night's too old

Tonight's the night
It's gonna be alright
'cause I love you girl
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now

Perhaps Rod was a bad choice, I wish you blokes would stop laughing, I thought I was really good
No way I’m gunna pick up now, might as well sit here and get hammered
Maybe I should try some Monkees, I bet that brunette in the corner would love Daydream Believer!

Michael,it was a worthy attempt,but the lack of barbed wire in your throat along with your hair being washed in the last decade somewhat spoilt it.

I did like your white jumpsuit though ;D :clap :clap :clap

Struggs, I told you I couldnt sing
Either not enough larger on board or just a lack of talent
 
I'm dressed in black.  I sing:

My daddy left home when I was three
And he didn't leave much to ma and me
Just this old guitar and an empty bottle of booze.
Now, I don't blame him cause he run and hid
But the meanest thing that he ever did
Was before he left, he went and named me "Sue."

Well, he must o' thought that is quite a joke
And it got a lot of laughs from a' lots of folk,
It seems I had to fight my whole life through.
Some gal would giggle and I'd get red
And some guy'd laugh and I'd bust his head,
I tell ya, life ain't easy for a boy named "Sue."

Well, I grew up quick and I grew up mean,
My fist got hard and my wits got keen,
I'd roam from town to town to hide my shame.
But I made a vow to the moon and stars
That I'd search the honky-tonks and bars
And kill that man who gave me that awful name.

Well, it was Gatlinburg in mid-July
And I just hit town and my throat was dry,
I thought I'd stop and have myself a brew.
At an old saloon on a street of mud,
There at a table, dealing stud,
Sat the dirty, mangy dog that named me "Sue."

Well, I knew that snake was my own sweet dad
From a worn-out picture that my mother'd had,
And I knew that scar on his cheek and his evil eye.
He was big and bent and gray and old,
And I looked at him and my blood ran cold
And I said: "My name is 'Sue!' How do you do!
Now your gonna die!!"

Well, I hit him hard right between the eyes
And he went down, but to my surprise,
He come up with a knife and cut off a piece of my ear.
But I busted a chair right across his teeth
And we crashed through the wall and into the street
Kicking and a' gouging in the mud and the blood and the beer.

I tell ya, I've fought tougher men
But I really can't remember when,
He kicked like a mule and he bit like a crocodile.
I heard him laugh and then I heard him cuss,
He went for his gun and I pulled mine first,
He stood there lookin' at me and I saw him smile.

And he said: "Son, this world is rough
And if a man's gonna make it, he's gotta be tough
And I knew I wouldn't be there to help ya along.
So I give ya that name and I said goodbye
I knew you'd have to get tough or die
And it's the name that helped to make you strong."

He said: "Now you just fought one hell of a fight
And I know you hate me, and you got the right
To kill me now, and I wouldn't blame you if you do.
But ya ought to thank me, before I die,
For the gravel in ya guts and the spit in ya eye
Cause I'm the son-of-a-b!tch that named you "Sue.'"

I got all choked up and I threw down my gun
And I called him my pa, and he called me his son,
And I came away with a different point of view.
And I think about him, now and then,
Every time I try and every time I win,
And if I ever have a son, I think I'm gonna name him
Bill or George! Anything but Sue! I still hate that name!

I smile and throw a wink.  I'm dressed in black.
 
I say "Like that one did ya? Well here's another."

Love is a burning thing
and it makes a firery ring
bound by wild desire
I fell in to a ring of fire...

I fell in to a burning ring of fire
I went down,down,down
and the flames went higher.
And it burns,burns,burns
the ring of fire
the ring of fire.

The taste of love is sweet
when hearts like our's meet
I fell for you like a child
oh, but the fire went wild..

I fell in to a burning ring of fire...



I smile and throw a wink. The man in black.

I think the brunette in the corner doesn't love me anymore
she's all yours
 
Cracking performances everyone :clap :clap

Just in case you are all a bit shy and worried about doing a cross gender song

I thought I'd break the ice, the scary thing is I can do it sober :eek:



I've spent the afternoon getting my legs waxed and I have gone all 60s retro

The mini skirt is a tad drafty, but the blonde wig looks good

So may I present to you.....


Ms Petula Clarke


When you're alone and life is making you lonely
You can always go - downtown
When you've got worries, all the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know - downtown
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?

The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
So go downtown, things'll be great when you're
Downtown - no finer place, for sure
Downtown - everything's waiting for you

Don't hang around and let your problems surround you
There are movie shows - downtown
Maybe you know some little places to go to
Where they never close - downtown
Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova
You'll be dancing with him too before the night is over
Happy again

The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
So go downtown, where all the lights are bright
Downtown - waiting for you tonight
Downtown - you're gonna be all right now

------ instrumental break ------ I'll do a little dance here, nothing too strenuous

And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along

So maybe I'll see you there
We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares
So go downtown, things'll be great when you're
Downtown - don't wait a minute more
Downtown - everything's waiting for you

Downtown, downtown, downtown, downtown ...
 
A karaoke masterpiece!

On the back of some of the finest square freaking I've ever witnessed.

:bravo, PREnders

:bravo

Puttin on the Ritz. Can you do that without tap? I think NOT!

Alvin Stardust, Jealous. Aren't we all?

An old romantic pays a fitting tribute to a New Romantic. Moving.

Sir Elton, can you have karaoke without Sir Elton? No, you cannot. Sir E is a glamourous prerequisite. And what a version! I mean what aversion? ;D

Michael's workin the room beautifully. Rod Stewart, is he a sir yet? No?? What about Sir Michael? Anyways he doesn't get the girl setting up a C&W theme for a brilliant titn segue...

The man in black, you've set us up. The classics, the C&W icons. Do you do requests? How about The Man in Black by the man in black?

And TC, you put in the hard yards, mate. Nice gloss finish on the calves. Nice wig, too.
 
OK PREnders, move aside as the shiny disco ball is turning, the coloured lights are pumping and I'm slowly walking down towards the dance floor with that ever so perfect Raines hairstyle wearing that flashy white suit (with the flares) holding Tiffany Cherry's hand behind me.   

...and here's TigerForce Travolta....... :hihi

Listen to the ground
There is movement all around
There is something goin' down
And I can feel it

On the waves of the air
There is dancin' out there
If it's somethin' we can share
We can steal it

And that sweet city woman
She moves through the light
Controlling my mind and my soul
When you reach out for me
Yeah, and the feelin' is bright

Then I get night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Gimme that night fever, night fever
We know how to show it

Here I am
Prayin' for this moment to last
Livin' on the music so fine
Borne on the wind
Makin' it mine

Night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Gimme that night fever, night fever
We know how to show it

In the heat of our love
Don't need no help for us to make it
Gimme just enough to take us to the mornin'
I got fire in my mind
I got higher in my walkin'
And I'm glowin' in the dark
I give you warnin'

And that sweet city woman
She moves through the light
Controlling my mind and my soul
When you reach out for me
Yeah, and the feelin' is bright

Then I get night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Gimme that night fever, night fever
We know how to show it

Here I am
Prayin' for this moment to last
Livin' on the music so fine
Borne on the wind
Makin' it mine

Night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Gimme that night fever, night fever
We know how to show it

It was going well until TITN stole my brunette with his Johnny Cash rendition
Not too worry I'll get her back with my version of Booker T and the MG's classic "Time is Tight"
No threat from TC, mind you there's a few blokes at the bar that may be interested
 
Hey Tigerforce, with moves like that man you should be playing in our forward line :clap :clap :clap

Those blokes by the bar were quite frisky, I got a few whistles

Until they copped a glimpse of my beard ???

I'm getting a 5 o'clock shadow on my legs, they are getting itchy

First note from that tinny Wurlitzer and she swooned.

I knew I'd lost her.

The man in black is lookin' for another to duet with.  Oh hell.  Oh say - isn't that June Carter?

Hey June ...

Thanks TC.

I reckon that song should be the Tiger's new motivation song (instead of 'Eye of the Tiger') when you look at the words.

Must admit those pants were a little too tight :hihi.
