it's lee-zelle or leezl (if you want to cite Sound of Music).
Both are a-ok with me, which really just means I don't care and I will answer if it sounds remotely like my name.
I honestly thought that it was LIES!
I decided to split off the pages of comments regarding Andrew in this thread and create a new thread for that purpose. Please go there to share your thoughts: http://aspecialthing.com/forum/f27/a...emorial-16262/
Thanks.
I have to say, one of the funniest moments this season was last week, during Dave Holmes, Matt pointing out how much the show has derailed due to pastries... then it kind of happening again this week with the same pastries.
Joe Lo was a great guest and, schedules willing, I hope he becomes a series regular.
I wanted to make a point of saying how fantastic the most recent episode was, regardless of the circumstances it was released under. I really hope Joe becomes a regular guest. He fit right in and (aside from not knowing the Thin Lizzy lyrics) just got it.
I went to a store today called, and I quote "The Compact Disc Store."
How Jimmy Pardo is that?
Eyes are the losers in the skies.
How common is it to have go to songs for karaoke? When I've been, its always been a flip through the book and randomly pick something affair. Is Joe's prepared list of songs typical behavior for regulars or just an idiosyncrasy of a professional performer?
I don't do karaoke often, but when I have, I will admit of having both "go to" songs, and songs that have come to make me instantly loathe those who choose them:
Can we PLEASE put a moratorium on "Paradise By The Dashboard Light"? Even if you and your fat, drunk girlfriend can sing it well, by the time it gets interesting, we have all lost interest. (I can say this with a clear concience, having been the fat, drunk girlfriend).
Really, all Meatloaf songs can go away. And unless you have made money for singing, and are the ONLY guy in the bar who has made money for singing, please do not sing "Blaze Of Glory", "Wanted: Dead or Alive", or "November Rain". And no Janis Joplin. Please.
(and if you wondered, I do Blondie, Talking Heads, CCR, and James Brown songs, and the latter only when very, very drunk.)
I have two or three go-to songs. Later in a night, I'll pick randomly from the book, but I find it's good to start with something I know backward and forward.
Also, I'd support a blanket ban on any song longer than five minutes.
The only song that should be allowed at karaoke is ABC's "Poison Arrow" obviously.
Re-listening to some earlier season 6 episodes to see what pieces should be cut up for an intro (do we have the songs minus clips anywhere?) and in 616, Jimmy yelling 'Bonzai Motherfucker!' is one of the funnier things in the season. Its too bad that swearing is not allowed (though its a good thing overall).
My personal stand-by is "Sister Christian" by Night Ranger -- a loving plea for abstinence (a fact I enjoy noting to the bar full of drunk guys that are too preoccupied with hitting on the waitresses to listen).
Overall, though, I'd say it's typical of people who do karaoke on a regular basis.
I always go On Bended Knee by Boyz II Men and it KILLS, people!

I used to do Karaoke weekly for about a year and there was definitely a group of regulars and they (we) usually would combine our repertoire of go to songs with some experimentation of new material. There were a lot of people who actually would bring their own dics. I haven't been in ages but I would usually do Jolene, Leavin' on Your Mind (Patsy Kline) and Heartbreaker (Benatar not Mariah). Sometimes I'd do Take My Breath Away. I had a lot of go to songs. I also liked to do Saving All My Love For You and Eternal Flame.
I'm awesome at singing, btw.
