Best sing a long song. You can turn it on the radio or at a club and everyone will know the words and sing.

DeleteTime can never mend...
Oh, wait. Duh. Summer of '69.
ReplyDeleteI was on a trip once with my youth group (don't judge) and we went to some fast food place with a jukebox. I played Summer and almost everybody in the restaurant started singing. It was awesome.

DeleteWho Let the Dogs Out.
ReplyDeleteI find singalongs mostly awkward, but I can't keep quiet if Sweet Caroline comes on. Or Take On Me (sadly).
ReplyDeleteMy favourite thing ever is when "Crosstown Traffic" comes on the radio, and guys sing along with the guitar doodle in the beginning. It's quite charming.
Last Dance - Donna Summer
ReplyDeleteBenny and the Jets - Elton
David Allen Coe, "You Never Even Called Me by My Name" when in a c/w bar.
ReplyDeleteHowever, if it's a gay c/w bar, "Looking for a City" by Vestal Goodman.
In that same vein, "Dark Lady" by Cher when in any gay bar.
Macarena
ReplyDeleteLOL FSP. I didn't know it had words. I was always too drunk ;)
DeleteCome On Eileen and Margaritaville...
ReplyDeleteLots of good ones in here, I'll add Hey Ya. That song transcended genres and social groups when I was in high school.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen anyone sing along with Sweet Caroline.
ReplyDeleteWe had a kid from a 3rd world country stay with us, and I said goodbye with a card that had the song "Hoop there it is", and he went crazy. No matter what continent, everyone knows that.
For me, it's always going to be FEELINGS, wowowowowo, FEELINGS!
Big Jamie Summers fan, huh?
DeleteSo, dating myself with that one.
Shoop by Salt N Pepa
ReplyDelete@PotPourri - come to Minnesota. People here LOOOOOOOVE "Sweet Caroline". There used to be a bar downtown Mpls that played that as the last song of the night every night.
ReplyDeleteFaith No More- Epic. It's impossible to listen and not sing along. Impossible I tell ya.
ReplyDeleteOoh....I love FNM!
DeleteMe, too!!!
DeleteJourney's "Don't Stop Believin" and for the clubs - that Usher song "Yeah" and 50 Cent - that one song (forgot the name).

ReplyDeleteBohemian Rhapsody
Tiny Dancer
I like big butts and I cannot lie!
ReplyDeleteI have no idea who sang that, but it was the one episode of Friends that had me in tears.
As a Jersey Girl, I would hands down say Rosalita and Livin' on a Prayer.
ReplyDeleteCecelia by Simon and Garfunkel is a personal fave.
I love Bon Jovi! My 4-year old son is currently obsessed with "Livin on a Prayer" he makes me play the song on repeat in the car. ;-)
DeleteOh what about Celebration by Kool and the gang! Played at every party that ever was.....
ReplyDeleteYellow Submarine, Beatles.
ReplyDeleteFresh Prince theme.
ReplyDeleteFriends visiting New Zealand started singing it on a bus and by the end, EVERYONE had joined in.
Jack & Diane.
ReplyDeleteAlso as someone mentioned, Come On Eileen.
Louie Louie
ReplyDeleteSweet Caroline is big only in certain parts of the country. Similar to Thank God I'm a Country Boy
@ Susan
ReplyDeleteLivin on a Prayer was my second choice. I'm a Jersey Girl too. It's in our blood
ALL OF THEM. Spice Up Your Life especially.
ReplyDeleteI just love singing, I don't shut the fuck up. But I don't not sing while fucking a la Zooey D.
The other night for the first time in a long time I had music playing while gettin' busy with the man. I started singing to every song. Thought of the Zooey blind, started to laugh and things got awkward from there on.
DeleteI can't even read this post without breaking into a medley of everyone's sing along songs.
ReplyDeleteGah, J - me, too. They are all stuck in my head!
DeleteDaydream Believer.
ReplyDeleteDaydream Believer.
ReplyDelete"Margaritaville." But I'm biased.
ReplyDelete"Sweet Caroline" and "Hey Jude" work well, too. Props to Jersey Girl Susan for "Rosalita," too!
Wake me up before you go go or else Borderline. Yes I was a (very small) child of the 80's.
ReplyDeleteHaha. I'm pretty sure most of these songs would never be played at a club unless it was a 60 and over place. Umm, maybe something cheesy like "You spin me right round" or "Baby got back"
ReplyDeleteSister Christian
ReplyDeleteWalking on Sunshine (ug!)
Jessie' Girl
Enter Sandman AND
Happy Birthday to You!
I'm so happy there were a few other mentions of Baby Got Back!! C'mon, you know you ALL know it...
ReplyDelete@Flo, since Enty asked for songs that "everyone" would know the words to, I understood it to mean songs that transcend generational lines.
ReplyDeleteMy Girl.
ReplyDeleteShoop by Salt n Pepa ----
ReplyDeleteany song lyric that can work in "I wanna thank your mother for a butt like that" has my vote
My husband has been in covers bands for years here (Australia) and in NZ, and every single time everyone sings along to Sweet Home Alabama, My Sharona and anything by Metallica.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Roman Holiday...Celebration...
ReplyDeleteRecently started playing Somg Pop - updated version of Name that Tune.
Journey Songs, Air Supply and Billy Joel are the easiest for me to pick up. Had no idea I knew so much Billy Joel, but w/2 much older sisters, their music taste spilled over...lol
And, I hate to admit it but 2 of Taylor Swift's songs from Fearless...the one about the next door neighbor and the Romeo/Juliet one...Sigh...
Like a Virgin
ReplyDeleteTainted Love
Freebird
All of the songs above. Music is so powerful and I don't think we should have to decide on ONE particular song. Everyones pick is...Supercalafragelistic..Music is love!
Oh and OT, that new show 'The Carrie Diaries' has a soundtrack to die for! All '80's!
And I left out - all my friends know the same songs. Air Supply is so repetitive that they are easy to pick up - oh and one other - the Grease soundtrack!! Lol
ReplyDeleteLMFAO "Party Rock" Anthem
ReplyDeleteWe are the Champions, Bohemnian Rhapsody, New York, New York, and We Are Family at almost every wedding you go to.
ReplyDeleteIf you live in Boston and/or follow the Red Sox, you're ALL too familiar w/"Sweet Caroline", I assure you...
ReplyDeleteAgree w/"Bohemian Rhapsody"; that's probably the all-time champ, esp. for people my age or who were old enough when Wayne's World came out.
I can still only sing it as "badadoosh, badadoosh, do the fandango!"

ReplyDeleteStairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised no one has mentioned "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun." Ladies, when you have a certain amount of alcohol in you the words just come naturally (along with some gibberish.)
ReplyDeleteI was at an event on New Year's eve at Atlantis resort in the Bahamas. The cover band started playing Joan Jett's "I love rock 'n' roll" and the entire place, with about 1,000 guests, went crazy singing and every server was dancing and singing around the tables. It was impressive when you consider that Atlantis has guests there from all over the world, and all of the staff are Bahamian.
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna go with
ReplyDeleteCrazy or Cryin-Aerosmith
Fly away-Lenny Kravitz
Bullet with Butterfly Wings-Smashing Pumpkins(my kids call it the Whale War song)

ReplyDeleteHey Jude - it's easy!
ReplyDeleteBohemian Like You
That's What I Like About You
different strokes theme song
ReplyDeleteParadise by the Dashboard Light.
ReplyDeleteYes! That's what I was thinking!
DeleteIs this the real life, or is it just fantasy? Caught in a landslide no escape from reality. Open your eyes, look up to the skies and seeeeeeeeeee. I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy. Because I'm easy come, easy go, little high, little low. Any way the blows, doesn't really matter to me. To meeeeeeeee
ReplyDeleteForever and ever I will head bang to this song. I love you Wayans World for bringing that simple pleasure to my life. And Garth just moving his mouth not knowing the words when their singing doesn't really matter, anyone can see, I've based my life existence off of that moment.
DeleteYou Give Love...A Bad Name!

ReplyDelete@auntliddy - I agree! American Pie
ReplyDeleteAmie, what you wanna do... Pure Prairie League
ReplyDeleteTrue story, as embarrassing as it is:
ReplyDeleteI was at a biergarten in Germany with a bunch of other college students and there was a band in lederhosen playing German beer drinking songs that most of our group didn't know. We tried to find a song that we could all sing along to (and by then we were all pretty drunk-- the beer steins are HUGE) and after muddling through a bunch of songs the only song that EVERYONE knew the words to were the lyrics for the theme song to The Beverly Hillbillies.
No wonder this country is in such a mess.
Three Little Birds- Bob Marley
ReplyDeleteGot to Give It Up- Marvin Gaye
ReplyDeleteI can't believe no one mentioned It Takes Two:

ReplyDelete@Green Wave Gal

But I'm known to rock the microphone!
I get stupid. I mean outrageous.
ReplyDeleteStay away from me if you're contagious.
Oh I could go on...but I'm laughing too hard to type!
ReplyDeleteOnly because I don't think there's anyone who hasn't heard it, doesn't knows the words, or hasn't sung along with it at least once..
ReplyDeleteI Got You Babe - Sonny & Cher
Rock Me Gently - Andy Kim

ReplyDeletewe lived in a condo when we were first married (before i knew he was lying whore). on sunday mornings one of our neighbors would BLAST "sweet caroline" and sing along. so one time we joined them. they never did that again. guess i had thoughts of the whole complex joining in. makes me smile everytime i hear it now, and i think of that sing-a-long.
ReplyDeleteAhhh, You Never Even Called Me By My Name is the closing song at one of my favorite bars.
ReplyDeleteDon't Stop Believin
Wonderwall
Old Time Rock n Roll
@Green Wave Gal, I LOVE that song! (Check! Woo!) ;)
Landslide...
ReplyDeleteSeriously. Turn it on at any dive bar or while on a road trip and everyone over 30 will sing along and anyone with taste under 30 will join in...
Best song to sing AND dance to is "Twist and Shout" by the Beatles.
ReplyDeleteLelain Pierce will like this one: "Tempted" by Squeeze.
ReplyDeleteThe Lion Sleeps tonight. Once took and admittingly drunk bus ride home with my pals and started singing the main part and over the speaker system the driver chimes in with the "a whimba way" bit. Great moment.
ReplyDelete@Maja - Ooh good one! Love every song on the soundtrack! ;-)
