I would start with "Kentucky Rain", "Whose bed have your boots been under", "Midnight Train To Georgia", and "Pontoon".

Lonnie..... I will come down sometime soon and do "Jet City Woman", "Eyes of a Stranger", and "Another Rainy Night Without You". I just love diversity. There are thousands and thousands of songs in my library that I have never heard before. I call out and reward people that sing those songs. I love well done Broadway and crooner tracks. I love when people improvise and do mash-ups. I love when people sing kinda so-so, but pour their heart, soul, life into that 3.5 minutes. But since you asked for actual songs - "I Believe In A Thing Called Love" - The Darkness "Dream On" - Aerosmith "Dog and Butterfly" - Heart "Rocking the Suburbs" - Ben Folds "Leave a Tender Moment Alone" - Billy Joel "What Would You Say" - Dave Matthews "Find Your Way Back" - Jefferson Starship "Animals" - Neon Trees Anything by Queensryche, Styx, The Cars, Steely Dan, Supertramp, Jason Mraz, Train, Soundgarden, John Mayer...... I have to get back to work.....

But too many so-so singers singing songs longer than 5 minutes could replace waterboarding as the most effective form of torture.

Ones that people can actually sing.
So many people try to sing diva songs or Zeppelin or Heart, for example, when they have no business even LISTENING to them, let alone trying to sing.

More upbeat songs. Can't stand when singers sing slow boring songs. Esp songs that know one has ever heard of. Sometimes I suggest songs for singers to sing to get the crowd into it.

MtnKaraoke: We are a live band karaoke operation, so we can learn to play anything. We've developed our own teleprompter system, so we have to enter the lyrics ourselves.

I dunno. Queensryche? Never a single request. Would like to hear more Kiss, and I kind of wish country, which was really big here maybe 8 years ago, would make a resurgence. The faster stuff is the only thing that seems to energize as well as older rock 'n roll.

At this point, Queensryche *IS* older rock and roll. Operation Mind Crime is from 1988 I believe. Maybe 89. Many of the singers at my shows weren't born yet.

I sing Silent Lucidity quite often,,, it's one of my better songs. I know it's not a "head bangin' " song that makes the crowd go nuts,, but at least it's something I can sing. As far as what I would like to hear,, I gotta be honest,, at this point.... if more people would just come out and sing,, maybe I wouldn't be wanting to quit.. But, I do like the 80's hair band stuff for sure.

I enjoy anything upbeat or interesting that has not been done to death.If it HAS been done to death, people who do it better get a pass.

There are a few that do get done a lot but I always find myself enjoying it when they come up. I like "Wake Me Up" by Avicii/Aloe Blacc and "Stuck In The Middle With You" by Stealer's Wheel. I like it whenever anyone does one of the current hit songs I've spent my money on.
There are some duets I wish people would try--"Oh Tonight" by the Josh Abbott Band or "Bruises" by Train and Ashley Monroe or "Trouble Is As Trouble Does" by Striking Matches.
The fellow doesn't do it often as it is slow and sad but I love hearing "I Will Follow You Into The Darkness" by Death Cab For Cutie. Don't know why seeing as I'm an old lady.

One guy that sings it - 1 leg to the left of me, 1 leg to the right here I am Stuck in The Middle With You. It was funny the first few weeks, but after a few years of hearing it pretty old now.

I'm only on my third year of hearing it once a week so I'm not tired of it yet. But I would get tired of the same joke being told every time.
