    How is it the hardest song to sing? I mean I get it's all subjective, but the others would be somewhat difficult sober, that song is just a run of the mill pop tune...?

    I'm sorry I didn't realise I would have to justify my nomination. I'm in over my head here. I withdraw my remark.

    The hardest song to sing would be "I did it my way" by Frank Sinatra to the tune of "New York, New York" *

    *I actually witnessed a wino singing this at a kareoke in Sligo one day, dunno how he done it, probably helped when he couldn't read the lyrics that were appearing on screen.

    Any song I sing is hard to sing, seeing as I only can sing out of tune! But a hard one people always try is either I will survive, Hotel California, or anything by queen. Freddie Mercury had Opera training and an incredible range of notes, average joe just can't match him!

    When I used to do a karaoke contest in the UK we had an auld wan come evry week, he would have one pint and make it last until he was called up to sing. He would also make the thinest roll ups I've seen! He would always sing Time is on my side, extremely badly, but he enjoyed it and in the end we put him in the finals just for the craic!

    Do not know about the Hardest song to sing ,
    But the one that seems the Hardest on the ears when performed or should I say attempted by people who cannot "SING " is

    House of the Rising Sun


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    Try singing this:



    I would say without a doubt, it would be much harder to sing than anything else mentioned in the thread so far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,094 ✭✭✭✭javaboy


    Nobody's mentioned Scatman. Be-bop-bop-bada-bo. Bop-bop-bada-bo. Skiddle-dee-bop-bada-bo.
