I'll have to see what manu put it out - it is a fantastic version of a great song. I could never stomach the DP version and when M. Smith brought it out I was thrilled. She plays in Seattle occasionally and I have seen her - amazing young female songerwriter musician. I'll have to drag out my CDG case and find it... I'll PM you when I have the manu.

Monday Night was only about 8 singers so I was able to sing more than I normally do.

Your Man - Josh Turner
Policy of Truth - Depeche Mode
Chasing Cars - Snow Patrol
Beginnings - Chicago
Does Fort Worth (ever cross your mind) - George Strait
Our House - Crosby Stills Nash & Young
One For My Baby - Frank Sinatra (one of my favorite closing songs)

I've heard of Aussie Crawl (or Australian Crawl), but I haven't heard them yet.  

And while we're on the subject of Australian pop--do you know if any of Daryl Braithwaite's stuff is available for karaoke?  "Higher than Hope" was a minor hit here in the US (I got the CD and love it so much that I bought some of his other CD's), but AFAIK it's not available for karaoke.  Also some of the songs he did w/Sherbet in the '80s, when they were known as the Sherbs, got some airplay here.  You'd think we'd be able to find SOME of it for karaoke anyway...

I just got back a half hour ago.  I sang:

If I Didn't Know Any Better - Alison Krauss
Strange Way - Firefall
Big Yellow Taxi - Joni Mitchell
Call Me - Blondie

Last night and Tonight I sang:

Right Where I Need To Be - Gary Allan
If You're Gone - Matchbox 20
LaBamba - Los Lobos
Goodbye Time - Blake Shelton
Senior Dios - Ramon Ayala (Learned that one from one of my hispanic friends, great song.)
Watching Airplanes - Gary Allan
Watchin' You - Rodney Atkins

Thursday night I sang:

      Diggin' Up Bones -- Randy Travis
      Chasin' That Neon Rainbow -- Alan Jackson
      No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problem -- Kenny Chesney
      Hard Rock Bottom Of Your Heart -- Randy Travis

Friday night

Margaritaville- Jimmy Buffett
Remember When- Alan Jackson
Amie- Pure Prairie League
living In Fast Forward- Kenny Chesney

I haven't heard Amie in a long time.  One of my favorite songs.  Not many people can pull that one off, great choice.

I hope it was the long version. I heard someone sing it once and it was the short version.  (I hate when record companies put out shortened version of songs--that's one of my biggest pet peeves!)

Last night, as I said on another thread, ericlater and his wife were in the area and we went to 2 karaoke places.  I'll let him give you the list of songs he sang, and I'll give you mine.  

Here's what I sang at the first place we went:

"Fins"-Jimmy Buffett
"Where Have All the Cowboys Gone"-Paula Cole
"Shambala"-Three Dog Night
"Town Without Pity"-Gene Pitney
"Shadows of the Night"-Pat Benatar

And at the 2nd place where we went:

"Yellow River"-Christie
"1-2-3"-Gloria Estefan

(an unusually crowded night for this place, so we didn't get as many songs in)

I think Amie is a favorite of just about everyone because the crowd really gets into it and I'll be dancing and bouncing around people will be singing and smiling. And then thats when I realize, I am a nut.

Laura, the tag of the song is short but that ok, for me its the hardest part of the song.

I guess I'll try to remember what I sang.   It was a pleasure hearing Laura sing "Town Without Pity"

I sang:
  "I'm Gonna Be Strong" - Gene Pitney
  "Red Red Wine" - UB40
  'Till Then" - Classics
  "Tonight Could Be The Night" - Velvets
  "Cara Mia" - Jay And The Americans
  "Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off" - Joe Nichols

I found it interesting that Laura sang a Three Dog Night tune at the first venue we attended and at the next venue someone else sang Joy To The World.  I rarely hear Three Dog and last night we heard two of their songs.  They're good numbers for karaoke.

Thanks!    :hi5:  I love singing that, and I'm getting better at it.  



You also sang "My Maria" by Brooks & Dunn (remember, I asked you to do that one) at the first place we went to.  

I heard someone sing "Mama Told Me Not to Come" once, and I've heard "Never Been to Spain" a few times.  I'm trying to think if there were any others...I think I may have heard "Joy to the World" a few times for karaoke before Fri. night, but I can't remember for sure.  That guy that sang it Fri. night was quite good, and the crowd enjoyed it.  The crowd at the other place liked "Shambala" when I did it also.  You're right, those are good songs for karaoke.  

Eric, I don't remember having heard "Till Then" before (I'm not even sure I've heard the original version, much less for karaoke), but that one went over really big.  You got a few people dancing, too!
