I'll admit it- I'm a karaoke junkie, not the Brown eyed girl /paradise by the... bullshit. I like the obscure stuff- Sabbath- Wicked World, Steppenwolf- The Pusher, etc.
Being a huge Stones fan, I cannot pass up the opportunity to sing a song or two written by the Glimmer Twins. No, I don't try to sing or even dance lie Mick. It's just another way to expression my appreciation for the greatest rock n roll band in the world, other than singing along to a record or the radio.
I'll get to it- what's the most obscure/interesting Stones song you have sung at karaoke? I sang my all-time favorite song out of any group 2 night's ago- Sister Morphine (love that slide geetar) followed by Star Star (Some girls in the bar gave me the Evil Eye after I sang the "I bet you keep your pussy clean" lyric). This karaoke DJ in Trenton, NJ also had She's So Cold, which I haven't seen on my karaoke jaunts. So what's everyone's favorite karaoke Stones somg to sing along to, or is this thread totally stupid? |

Just kidding. The most obscure one I've sung is Ain't Too Proud To Beg. Most karaoke places I've seen don't list too many Stones songs & when they do it's usually the warhorses or songs that they've covered. |

I tried "Miss You" once.... but sometimes the versions they play are lame-ass replicas of the real thing: different key, different tempo, different from what we all know by heart and love.
needless to say, i won't try that again any time soon. |

I love Kareokee! But, I stopped going because the announcer forced me to kiss him. The whole day, he was saying how beautiful I was, and then, since he noticed that all I sang was Stones's songs, he sang, "Paint It Black" just for me! He said, "Gorda, don't leave, I'm going to sing this just for you. Give me a kiss." I really didn't want to, but he did buy me a beer, so I kissed him on the neck. And, he did sing pretty good. But, now I can't go back there ever again, because it would be too weird.

I love karaoke aswell. However I have never got up to sing a Rolling stones number as yet. I think they are too mainstream. I am definately feeling tbirds obscurity vibe. I like to sing stuff like Billy Idol, Alice Cooper and Whitesnake |

Hell yeah! I sang "Working Class Hero" once and the karaokee J said, "Who wrote that?" "Lennon," I replied. "What a fucking asshole!" was Pete's response. "SpaceLord Motherfucker" by Monster magnet is always a crowd pleaser as well. |

He only bought me one beer . . . I want champagne for that! . . . Or maybe if he had taken me out on a real date and bought me dinner at a really fancy restaurant and taken me out dancing or to the movies. Then . . . maybe . . . |

I sang Rip This Joint last night. That's a tough one, especially after 6 pints! |
