None, and I wouldn't go to the event in the first place. I don't do role play on training courses either. I've not be failed on a course for that refusal.

There's a reason that good singers and actors might get paid well.

How do you turn a duck into a soul singer?

Put it in the microwave until it's Bill Withers.

Each to their own I suppose.
I'm a show off, but publicly belting out tunes badly is too awful these days when everything is so easily committed to the internet's forever.

My SIL runs a karaoke evening with her husband. Neither of them are very good but they'll happy sing half the night together if the evening's punters aren't up for it. Bad karaoke done in dingy Midland's hotels of a Tuesday night for cash in hand tweaks about every button I have.

But anyway if I was forced to sing something life or death I'd croon something out by Elvis and wiggle my hips about.

I've said for literally years that I'd like to be able to sing properly (or even, at all, I've not tried), but I never get around to it. As in have proper lessons etc.

Maybe I should. :lol:

Still not doing Karaoke mind, not until I can be that guy who takes it too seriously anyway.

John Cooper Clarke's 'Twat' would be fun if the right person was in the audience.

1968 apparently he started recording shit songs. I always thought Telly Savalas was first to talk a shit song with IF but apparently that was 1974 :o I feel fucking old now.

Kraftwerk's 'Autobahn' wouldn't stretch the ol' larynx to much.

I could probably do a passable John Martyn or Crash Test Dummies song if I had to I suppose.
