For the incoherent drunkards, the friends who get yanked onstage, and all other would-be singers, Entertainment Weekly offers the best and worst karaoke songs: The Best:
"I Want It That Way," Backstreet Boys: The entire room will be singing with you; getting audience members to admit they like the song is another story.
"Umbrella," Rihanna: The raucous beat will drown out a mediocre voice.
"All Or Nothing," O-Town: With great melodic elements and an octave level that’s encouraging to people past puberty, this song is karaoke gold.
The Worst:
"American Pie," Don McLean: The song is 8½ minutes long, which is about 8 minutes more than the audience wants.
"Hurt," Nine Inch Nails: Instrumental stretches and repressed childhood issues need to be left at the bar door.
"Sweet Caroline," Neil Diamond: You can only hear “Dah dah daaaah!” so many times before “you want to track Caroline down and kill her in her sleep.”
