    The king of funny, drunk songs is "I Touch Myself", cant remember who sings it. Some Australian crowd with a woman singer.

    It invariably leads to men rubbing their nipples with a sleazy look on thier faces. All good clean fun though.

    Sing along songs:

    Sweet Child o Mine -GnR
    Yellow Submarine - Beatles
    Livin on a Prayer - Bon Jovi (warning Drunkenness is essential)
    Start me up - Rolling Stones

    Baxtard!!! I was gonna say as*h*le t**!Its by Dennis Lerry.

    And I Touch Myself is not by Blondie!!! Go and stand in the corner!

    For the party,bit of Bad Manners, Madness, Jump Around-House of Pain, bit of James Brown, throw in some Sublime and Bloodhound Gang and yer laughing.
    Or you could try Violet by Hole, then the Judgement Night sound track, some RATM, get a shouty thing going.

    But Epic by Faith No More must be in there some where!!!

    And Baby Got Back by Sir Mix-a-lot:cool:
