Title: Oddest BB tunes you've found on karaoke
Post by: punkinhead on November 26, 2008, 10:38:01 PM
While looking at tunes for karaoke, I found Let Him Run Wild?!?!? seriously, who could sing that? even Brian claims to sound like a girl on that tune.  ::)

Very odd indeed.  I can't imagine most singers being able to pull that one off, especially since (like you said) even Brian thought he didn't sing it that well.

If it's the much easier version off of 'Imagination', I can imagine it. Preferably sung by Japanese men like that 'God Save The Queen' thing in 'Lost In Translation'.

That version still makes me cringe.  But yes it would certainly be easier for non-singers to sing.

What, I ask, is Captain Americas? A mental institution?

I tried to sing that song to the backing track and stupidly put it on youtube for awhile.

I remember someone saying in the comments that I sounded like I should be in a gay boys choir  :lol

I think I could sing it fairly well, in all modesty, even though it might sound a little feminine. I'm secure in my masculinity! Could you describe where you saw it so I might be able to buy it? (I could
use stack o' tracks but backing vocals would help).  ^-^

I'd love to sing Hey Little Tomboy karaoke-style, including the infamous middle-section of course.

I would go for 'Let's Go Away For Awhile'. I'd just sit behind a non-connected keyboard and wave my hands.
