Q: Would it have been ethical of me to have posted the answer if I had a Googled-assisted answer? (That's why the Don McLean reference) |

Karaoke night at the Cafe... Got me the strangest woman Believe me this trick's no cinch But I really get her going When I whip out my big 10 inch... Record of a band that plays the blues Well a band that plays its blues She just love my big 10 inch Record of her favorite blues Last night I tried to tease her I gave my love a little pinch She said now stop that jivin' Now whip out your big 10 inch... Record of a band that plays those blues Well a band that plays the blues She just loves my big 10 inch Record of her favorite blues I, I, I cover her with kisses And when we're in a lover's clinch She gets all excited When she begs for my big 10 inch... Record of a band that plays those blues Well a band that plays the blues She just love my big 10 inch Record of her favorite blues My girl don't go for smokin' And liquor just make her flinch Seems she don't go for nothin' 'cept for my big 10 inch... Record of a band that plays the blues Band that play the blues She just love my big 10 inch Record of her favorite blues |

I hate kareoke as well. I went out with my ex-wife once to a bar that unforunately was having a kareoke night. I'd rather be dragged naked over carpet tacks and then dipped in rubbing alcohol than listen to people that think they can sing, warbling off key. The lowlight of the evening was some guy that looked like he had one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel attempting to sing "Do you think I'm sexy". Even after I got drunk it didn't sound or look any better... To truly explore, one must keep an open mind... |

Apparently iPods and Palm Pilots account for the rise in theft in the subway. |

I did karaoke in Japan when a few years before it came to the states and when they used an expensive laserdisc setup. There was only two songs with English lyrics: "My Way" and "Yesterday". We were actually advised in an orientation briefing to sing "Yesterday" because "My Way" would just torture the audience that much longer. And it also seemed to be tradition, when invited to a "Snack" bar with a karaoke machine, that the Japanese host shoves the American up to the mike along with his daughter to sing "Yesterday" duet, which to me was bizarre because I thought the whole point of those bars were for Japanese men to get away from their family altogether. As cute as they were, it was something I could have done without. What do I know? Butcha see, this is the advantage of Cafe SETI. Nobody sings off-key here, as far as anyone else knows... And now, the end is near; And so I face the final curtain. My friend, I'll say it clear, I'll state my case, of which I'm certain. I've lived a life that's full. I've traveled each and ev'ry highway; But more, much more than this, I did it my way. Regrets, I've had a few; But then again, too few to mention. I did what I had to do And saw it through without exemption. I planned each charted course; Each careful step along the byway, But more, much more than this, I did it my way. Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew When I bit off more than I could chew. But through it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up and spit it out. I faced it all and I stood tall; And did it my way. I've loved, I've laughed and cried. I've had my fill; my share of losing. And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing. To think I did all that; And may I say - not in a shy way, "No, oh no not me, I did it my way". For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself, then he has naught. To say the things he truly feels; And not the words of one who kneels. The record shows I took the blows - And did it myyyyyyyy waaaaaaaaaay! |

...this is the advantage of Cafe SETI. Nobody sings off-key here You're right! And don't call me "Butcha". ;-P ♪ You shut your mouth / How can you say / I go about things the wrong way? I am Human / and I need to be lo-o-oved / Just like everybody else does.♫ ♬When you say it's gonna happen now / Well, when exactly do you mean? See, I've already waited to lo-o-ong / and all my hope is gone.♪ |

Hmm, I never really listened to them that much before. Dunno, they just seemed to be one of those glossy chart bands to me. The closest thing that I'll listen to is Audioslave or MAYBE Pod. |
