That's the heart and soul of a good karaoke song.ĭavid Cobb : Aside from being one of the greatest musical works of the 21st century, 'Party in the USA' by Miley Cyrus makes for an excellent karaoke choice because of how accessible it is to the casual singer. I will never do it justice, I will not try, but I will commit when singing it. This song bangs and I will love it until the end of time. Bangers only.īen Kercheval : There are actually two things that come to mind about when I think about 'Purple Rain.' I think of Prince, obviously, but I also think of Adam Levine actually kinda killing it in this cover. So, like Miley, I'm swinging into the room on a dang wrecking ball, and we're all about to tear this place down together.

Karaoke is about commanding the room and keeping everybody involved. Karaoke isn't about just getting on a stage and singing songs you like. Tom Fornelli : Listen, this first song is a statement of intent. The point of karaoke is fun, right? So let's have some fun and join together in some good, old-fashioned fun. No song gets the crowd going like a good song along, and Sweet Caroline is a crowd-pleaser. But karaoke isn't about me, it's about my fans. You only get once chance to make a strong first draft impression, so here's why we chose what we chose.īarrett Sallee : Full disclosure: I don't like this song at all. Is this documented anywhere? Can it be? The top two picks were gimmes, but the rest of the team sprinkled in some more unique answers. Holy cow, two Miley Cryus picks in the first round! I need to know more about Tom, in particular. Which you can share with us, gently, at the Cover 3 Podcast. A seven-round draft is not going to be enough and there are going to be legitimate snubs. Or, like some of the GMs, you're pulling exclusively from the deepest, most personal archives of musical fandom.Įven with all of that variety, there are just too many damn good sing alongs. You want to try to cover as many bases as possible but also have personal favorites and crowd-pleasers. Overall, there was a good variety of musical choices. Since the library of eligible karaoke songs is limitless, we went a full seven rounds to curate our ultimate set lists.
