I'm treating my family to some tipsy karaoke.

My kids are impressed with the lyrical delivery but not so much the execution.

Don't forget the Judy Garland signature hand move. Works particularly well for 80s ballads.

Would it be too clichéd to do Total Eclipse of The Heart?

And if so, what about the Literal Version (the original being probably about as old as your kids ...)?

Our friend melbourne_wanderer shared that one with me last night and I just watched it.

It's glorious.

Alas, I cannot do justice to Lady Tyler's voice no matter what.

However I can rock some Lady Gaga or KD Lang.

Karaoke Rap God or Godzilla by Eminem. And record it and send it to me haha

I do Rapper's delight and Shook Ones...but haven't yet.

It's been 80s rock so far.

Belting out The Cult is very cathartic

Alice Cooper up next

I'm about to take on Shakespeare's Sister , Stay.

My wife is getting the divorce papers ready.

Daughter wants to die and my son is laughing his arse off.

Such an underrated 90s gem, innit?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It truly is. Hardly anyone seems to talk about it when talking about 90s music 😭
