I am super-new to the entire karaoke thing. I KNOW I KNOW, I'm the latest to the party EVER, but it was not in my universe until recently as I was busy brushing the dog and researching hot water heaters. Anyway, my birthday is coming up in a week and it so happens I am having a bit of a karaoke party at a local club. Will I actually get up the nerve to sing? Well, we shall see. If I do, I hope for the sake of everyone there and all humanity that I do a better job than these poor sods. If I don't...watch for me on YouTube. Please to enjoy!

If you were out walking and somehow ended up forcefully stepping on a goose, over and over and over again, it would sound better than this. Holy mother of god, people.
I was waiting for his pants to fall down the whole time.
The lady is giving it a good try, but the guy, who must be her son, or I hope is her son holy crap, is lost in the 'hood.
OK, there's the singing...but then SHORTS AND SKI BOOTS.
If you ever wondered how ordinary people sing a Kate Bush song, here you are. I'm glad I wasn't there to hear this, because I feel sure I would've peed myself.
And finally, what could be better than a classic karaoke choice, Frank Sinatra's "My Way?" ANSWER: NOTHING.
