When you go to karaoke, do you/your group usually sing seriously, with your heart, give it your best or do you sing as to make fun of the songs in a playful way? (mander.xyz)

the usual format is serious and fast songs then slowly moves to somewhat serious ballads and drunken slurred lyrics.

all in good time.

Depends on the song and my current mood.

Like I don't think I would ever pour my heart and soul into a Bloodhound Gang song.

The two are not mutually exclusive! My go to song is Even Flow by Pearl Jam. The only rough part is the 58 second guitar solo. I know it's 58 seconds because sometimes the screen mentions it lol. I usually just say "what's up (city), how y'all doing tonight?" But I need to come up with something longer to fill the space. Or just sing the guitar songs.

Depends on the amount of alcohol that has been consumed

I usually try to sing well (even though I'm bad at it) However I also like to choose satiric songs which

So a bit of both worlds for me, I suppose

I always give it my best and do a wonderfully mid job

Depends on the mood and the song. I usually try to sing the best I could. But occasionally I try to be playful.

It has been a very very long time since I went to karaoke, but I went a lot when I was young.
