We are in a neighborhood bar with ages ranging from 21 to 82, all co-exisiting. We have country mixed with metal. The newer songs they pick are usually country and not rock/pop (urban hip/hop extremely rare) but we have had Bruno Mars and Adele done. One 72 year old guy actually requests that "Dynamite" with the autotune be sung. "Love Shack" is a big dance number there.
I'm sure that, much as we joke, we all have the same view as we see businesses closing all around us--I'll take "Picture" being sung a few times a night to being empty.

That I will agree with! I would gladly deal with the boring overdone songs over an empty bar anyday! _________________ LIKE Lonman on Facebook - Lonman Productions Karaoke & my main site via my profile!

These songs still get sung regularly? Picture I hear on occasion, but the others are pretty rare anymore. Welcome to Iowa...I'll add Meatloaf's "Paradise By The Dashboard Light" as well.  Gee, I don't have that one in my collection. That's strange...

Was it done on one of the 'talent' shows or Glee? These seem to spark some resurrgence of older or obscure songs.

Well at least no one seems to be requesting "The Rose" anymore at one point in time I thought I would hurl if I had to hear it again.  I even took it out of my books for a few years.
