On the back of Paul O’Connell’s Woman’s Way interview, where he revealed that his karaoke song is The Beach Boys Sloop John B, we decided to find out what others rattled out in the pub when they’re feeling brave. We know what Paula’s is – owwww! - and we got some interesting answers from some friends of the show:
Daithi O Se - Sweet child of mine
Dara O’Briain -“I don’t sing well, more of a dancer - so I say no to karaoke”
Amy Huberman – “Whitney Houston – Didn’t We Almost Have It All. Everyone in the bar would stop talking and start crying”
Martin King – Jumpin’ Jack Flash – only if I was totally pushed (yeah right Martin!)
Our Boss man Peter McPartlin - Walking in Memphis (we want to see that at the Christmas party this year, please)
Our listeners got involved too, and sent in all their karaoke choices, so we’ve broken down the Nation’s Karaoke Choices into some lists - so according to YOU, our amazingly talented listeners, it looks like this:
The Short One
Great Balls of Fire
The Shocker
Santa Baby (sung in the summer)
Chocolate Salty Balls
I Touch Myself
The One Everyone Will Sing Along To
Friends in Low Places
The Crowd Pleasers
I’m So Excited
You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling
Hold Me Now- Johnny Logan
I’m Too Sexy – Right Said Fred
And possibly, the most important one...
The one that will win you the T-Shirt!
For women: I will survive
For men: Don’t stop believing – Journey
