23. “She’s A Lady” by Tom Jones
Song Year: 1971
Jones’ most popular song is a karaoke favorite for its fun sound and the silly description of who he considers a lady. Sing it to a particular girl at the bar and watch her giggle at your antics, whether you borrow them directly from Tom himself or invent your own.
24. “Do Wah Diddy Diddy” by Manfred Mann
Song Year: 1964
This delightful ‘60s bop is not only easy to sing, but also it invites you to let your friends join in on the echoes. Accessible to nearly anyone (male or female) and with a timeless earworm on the chorus, we encourage you to own the cheesiness and bring a smile to everyone in the bar.
25. “She Thinks My Tractor’s Sexy” by Kenny Chesney
Song Year: 1999
This country staple doesn’t take much explanation: Chesney is delighted that his crush is as redneck as he is. Full of Midwestern sex appeal and a rollicking rhythm, you can play up the silliness with topical charades and hand gestures.
26. “Whip It” by Devo
Song Year: 1980
There’s nothing unfunny about guys in a band all wearing flowerpots on their heads. This over-the-top rock combo provides some excellent karaoke fodder with its zany hijinks.
27. “Man! I Feel Like A Woman” by Shania Twain
Song Year: 1999
The gender-bending atmosphere of the music video reflects in the lyrics, as Twain questions what it means to be a woman. Partying, drinking, dancing, and dressing up all come into play here. Put in this song as a guy, and you’ll have the bar in stitches.
28. “Brick House” by The Commodores
Song Year: 1977
Get funky and sassy at the mic with this vintage hit. Whether you have a thick lady to dedicate your song to or just the ideal vision of one, you’ll definitely crack up your friends regardless.
29. “Tequila” by The Champs
Song Year: 1958
With an iconic saxophone melody and frenetic percussion, this song carries a lot of silly energy. The joke is that you can choose this at karaoke and only have to “sing” (really, chant) one word throughout its entire two-minute duration. Bonus points if you dance to it like PeeWee Herman.
30. “My Ding-A-Ling” by Chuck Berry
Song Year: 1972
It’s rare that a song this old has so many euphemisms and double entendres. Lean into the inappropriate humor with some hand gestures and watch your friends at the bar alternately cringe and guffaw.
31. “Feed Me” by Levi Stubbs
Song Year: 1986
Little Shop of Horrors, one of the most ridiculous shows in Broadway history, features a giant plant who begs his caretaker to feed him human flesh. When you do it right, there’s no song better to sing at karaoke. Creepy, weird, or intense, just have fun with it.
32. “My Sharona” by The Knack
Song Year: 1979
Though the message is questionable by today’s standards, “My Sharona” remains a party favorite for its wild vocals and punk-rock attitude. Bring up the energy in the room and go wild on this one.
33. “Space Oddity” by David Bowie
Song Year: 1969
The timeless saga of Ground Control and Major Tom has made its way into the karaoke canon for a good reason. Even though the energy is chill, you can wail on the chorus, including a friend on harmony, if it suits you both.
