The song you sing when drunk

Simple as it sounds - what song do you choose to massacre when you've had one too many?

For me it's 'Killing Me Softly' by the Fugees, which is unfortunate because it's a hard song to sing sober, let alone whilst flutered.

Usually something by The Monkees, predictably enough.

Hey Jude is always a good one.
If someone has a guitar it's always a challenge to try The Hurricane. I've made it passed the fourth verse once, but I usually always forget the lyrics and skip towards the end.

Depends what song I'm learning at the time.

Once I learn/get bored with a song, I move on to a new one and subsequently forget one I just learned.

Yes I suck. Currently, It would be Ryan Adams - Come pick me up.

For some reason, my friends and I went through a phase of singing Sunday School songs when drunk. That was a bizarre time... poor taxi drivers!

The other song I tend to sing drunk is "More than Words" by extreme.

GrahamThomas · 23-01-2008 11:16PM

When very drunk, I've been known to belt out the Saw Doctors "Green And Red of Mayo" on the Nitelink home....I know I know, I should be ashamed of myself!

"You spin me right round baby right round like a record baby...."

Inspired by meatspin

Drunken night in Dublin by The Mahones. Very funny song about a shennanigans filled night of drinking.

Umbrella.

And "Timmy timmy more, timmy more, timmy timmy more" to our mate Tim to the tune of Gimme More by Britney Spears. Also "Timmy timmy timmy a man after midnight" hahahaha

Den_M · 23-01-2008 11:21PM

Another I tend to shame is Waltzing Matilda the Pogues way.
