Karaoke: The Final Frontier
No, I didn't record myself singing your favorite hits. In fact, that's the last thing I'd want to subject any of you to. In my car, I'm a rockstar...but anywhere else I keep my mouth shut.
It's one of those things where you sit there thinking "Ooh ooh...I could do this song, or this one!" And it seems like a great idea, but then there's that little voice in the back of your head that fears embarrasment. A few weeks ago that voice almost gave in, but was quickly silenced when I was unable to find the right song.
That's the biggest trick, aside from the courage thing. Just what song does one sing? Something upbeat to get the crowd going? Or do you do something mellow to show off your sensitive side? It was basically "Friends in Low Places" vs. "Your Song", but then I got into watching everybody else singing (including one guy who couldn't carry a note if it had crutches and another person helping out) and stopped caring.
Anybody else ever have that problem? Or, if you overcame it, what song did you bust out?
