- FutureMon

Oh boy, there are TONS i love to sing, but some of my favorite are:

Stray Cat Strut - Stray Cats
Losing My Religion - REM
Town Without Pity - Gene Pitney
Love Potion #9 - The Searchers
A Little Less Talk, A Lot More Action - Toby Keith
Drinkin' My Baby Goodbye - Charlie Daniels Band
Word Up - Cameo
I'm Your Boogie Man - KC & The Sunshine Band


and no, i won't do any Barbra Streisand,

I have a very unusual voice, so I end up doing unusual pieces that no one would probably expect to hear at karaoke (just check out Singers Showcase). Everytime I try to do something in the pop or rock realm, it sounds really funny to me.

I have way too many to mention!

Yes, there are a few that I'm currently singing more than anything, but many times, I get an urge just to look at a disc I'm putting in for a singer, and I know my turn's next, so I look to see what's on that disc if I can sing it or not! !

I actually sat down and tried typing everything I've sang in a spreadsheet. Yikes! I gave up after 100!

I like to do anything from campy 80's tunes (including power monster ballads) to Celine Dion to Aretha Franklin. Kind of an ecclectic mix.

I like to sing BIG BAD Blues...George Thorogood, Jake and Elwood, Johnny Lee Hooker, Stevie Ray Vaughn

And RAUNCHY Rock and Roll...ZZ Top, Golden Earring, AC/DC, Creedence etc.

I also like to do some 70s and 80s stuff like Cover of the Rolling Stone or Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. I also do some silly stuff like Snoopy and the Red Baron.

I sing a fair amount of Canadian stuff...Trooper, BTO, Tragically Hip, Guess Who, Burton Cummings to name a few. ...surprise - surprise

I generally don't sing when I host a show. When I go out for fun (not very often these days) without working, the ones I gravitate to most are:

When I'm 64 - Beatles
Green Eyed Lady - Sugarloaf
Is It My Body - Alice Cooper
White Wedding - Billy Idol
Call & Answer - Barenaked Ladies
Behind Blue Eyes - The Who
Oh Darling - Beatles
Sour Girl - Stone Temple Pilots
Turbo Lover - Judas Priest
Treat Her Like a Lady - Cornelius Brothers
I Melt With You - Modern English

I know, datad stuff. Most current song is probably "Like a Stone" (Audioslave); needs more work though.

Would like to try more country, which I love, but I have never felt I could hit it. "I Don't Call Him Daddy" (Doug Supernaw) is about the only I've done regularly, and that's really because the lyrics hit home for me.

Through the years I've been blessed with the opportunity to develop a set list that is sure to both challenge me as a performer as well as delight the crowd. I believe that it is necessary to make minor tweaks to your set list to ensure it works with each particular venue. Nevertheless, there are several classics that are ALWAYS a part of every Club KiKi performance. They are:

Friends in Low Places

Baby Got Back

Born To Run

I will Survive

Hi all,

Newbie here and have only been singing 5 weeks now, about 1 or 2 shows a week. Might step it up to 3 a week.

I try and pick songs that no one does usually and pull out of the archives as well as some songs that are more mainstream. I am a high tenor so I try to pick songs within my range of course.

I have sang approx. 40+ songs already in just five weeks. Here are only a few of my top songs:

Air That I Breathe - The Hollies, (looking for Simply Red's version as well)
Holding Back the Years - Simply Red
Tiny Dancer - Elton John (my signature song, ppl always request I do it)
Suite Madam Blue - Styx
Crystal Ball - Styx
Don't Let It End - Styx
Lady - Styx
Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin' - Journey
Send Her My Love - Journey
Hold On My Heart - Genesis (as well as a few more by Genesis)
Another Day in Paradise - Phil Collins
Groovy Kind of Love - Phil Collins (and a few more by him)
Dust in the Wind - Kansas
I Won't Hold You Back Now - Toto
A Man I'll Never Be - Boston
Only Time Will Tell - Asia
Restless Heart - Peter Cetera
Bridge Over Troubled Water - Simon & Garfunkel (Garfunkel actually)
All I Know - Art Garfunkel
Don't Know Much - Aaron Neville
Right Here Waiting - Richard Marx
Do You Really Love a Woman - Bryan Adams
Young Girl - Gary Puckett and the Union Gap
Keep On Lovin' You - REO Speedwagon

I am working on a few Air Supply songs to add to the mix as well. This is just a small sampling. Like someone else posted, if you listed them all, it could be a very long list. I want to take the time to say thanks for this thread as it gives me ideas for more songs I might not have thought of.

Hope to learn a lot here from the masters.
