Needs more American Pie".

 
chemical_angel [TotalFark] 2008-01-01 02:22:35 AM  
Really? I, um, disagree with this list.

 
Bfett20 2008-01-01 02:52:41 AM  
Yeah. Needed Piano Man.

 
Tirion529 2008-01-01 02:53:08 AM  
I was hoping for "Wanted Dead Or Alive". List was... meh.

 
omfgodzilla 2008-01-01 02:54:33 AM  
"Friends in Low Places" or STFU.

The Dropkick Murphys are disappointed.

Here I go again on my own!
Going down the only road I've ever known!

Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong!

Okay, so perhaps any Journey song would qualify...but as far as Queen is concerned, why would they choose "Fat Bottomed Girls" over "We Will Rock You," or even "Bohemian Rhapsody!?"

That list was full of fail for so many reasons, not least of which because it didn't have "Sweet Caroline" on it either. Hrmph!

 
Tron-tonian 2008-01-01 03:13:20 AM  
"Home for a rest" - Spirit of the West.

Find it, listen to it.

/not my fault if you wake up hoarse and hungover

The Replacements- "Can't Hardly Wait"

Never been sung sober yet!

 
irockalot 2008-01-01 03:31:24 AM  
No Louie, Louie?

 
schmez 2008-01-01 03:40:30 AM  
"Straight to Hell" by Drivin-n-Cryin. During the stanzas it gets a little mumbly, but oh that chorus. Rings like a bell. A very, very drunk bell.

 
Ravynia 2008-01-01 03:45:57 AM  
This is the top five songs to sing if your gay, right?

Shaun of the Dead
established that the definitive Queen pub song is Don't Stop Me Now

 
Publikwerks 2008-01-01 04:13:13 AM  
No Waltzing Matilida? Sounds like this list was made by a bunch of frat girls.

 
archeochick 2008-01-01 04:16:49 AM  
I pound on the door 'cause she wont let me in...

/I seem to have misunderstood the headline

bah this (new window) is the best sing along drunken song

 
CobaltthoriumG 2008-01-01 04:58:32 AM  
How Petty. Tom Petty.

Don't forget the Traveling Wilburys - particularly Handle With Care and End of the Line

 
nodubs 2008-01-01 05:11:37 AM  
My ding-a-ling.
My ding-a-ling.
I want you to play with my ding-a-ling.


Best song to sing when drunk.

/not my fault if you wake up hoarse and hungover



You'll have to excuse me I'm not at my best
I've been gone for a week
I've been drunk since I left.

Too bad they aren't known much outside Canada. That song was a gaurantee play at virtually any bar/club when I was at University. Complete with drunken college kids doing a fake jig.

alex21 2008-01-01 05:32:41 AM  
Pretty sucky list.

However.

JUST A SMALLTOWN GIRL

 
ryebread [TotalFark] 2008-01-01 05:46:30 AM  
Since there's no links that I see in the article, here you go:

#5: You've Lost That Loving Feeling - Righteous Brothers (new window)
#4: Don't Stop Beliving - Journey (new window)
#3: To Be With You - Mr. Big (new window)
#2: Fat Bottomed Girls - Queen (new window)
#1: Build Me Up - The Foundations (new window)

I don't think I agree with any of those choices, but yeah, there they are.

nodubs: My ding-a-ling.
This. (new window) NSFW for most people I would imagine.

I'll see your My Ding-A-Ling and raise you an artist who used that as an album name. Judge Dread - Donkey (four letter slang term for a penis that starts with a D goes here). No links for it, but I'm sure you motivated farkers can find it. It's well worth the effort if you pay attention to the lyrics.

 
dexter.lives 2008-01-01 07:47:51 AM  
Now I know what the frat-trash sing at their parties. Neat.

 
orlostone 2008-01-01 08:18:20 AM  
Come on:

Sweet Caroline by Neal Diamond
Cecelia by Paul Simon
Margaritaville by Jimmy Buffett
Come On Eileen by Dexies midnight runners
500 miles by The Proclaimers

Da Dut Da Da Dut Da

done and done

 
Spanky_McFarksalot 2008-01-01 08:53:50 AM  
No Nellie the Elephant from ToyDolls?

Article is full oh fail.

 
Coffin_Coroner 2008-01-01 08:57:45 AM  
For us it used to be Jump Around by House of Pain.

The sing a longs where you are supposed to look at each other as you sing are really really gay, sorry

 
CoolHandLucas 2008-01-01 09:26:24 AM  
No "Living on a Prayer"?

FAIL

 
boulevard_of_broken_dreams 2008-01-01 09:56:08 AM  
Tourney3p0: The Dropkick Murphys are disappointed.

Beat me to it dammit. Kiss Me, I'm shiatfaced should so be on that list

 
FrodaddyATL 2008-01-01 09:56:14 AM  
FAIL

Sweet Caroline
Cecelia
Living on a Prayer
Build me Up Buttercup
Alabama's Dixieland Delight

 
Ecobuckeye 2008-01-01 10:07:23 AM  
Sweet Caroline thirded. You play that in a bar full of drunken Irishmen and and you'd better have your earplugs in.

 
Rodeodoc 2008-01-01 10:08:28 AM  
I would like to get drunk with orlostone and FrodaddyATL, but only if we can also sing "Sugar, Sugar" by The Archies.

Ahhhh, Sugar. Unnhhh honey, honey. You are my Candy Girl...

 
starleen 2008-01-01 10:10:08 AM  
No Tubthumping by Chumbawamba?

 
SaberTooth08 2008-01-01 10:10:31 AM  
'Round here number 1 is most certainly "Barrett's Privateers".

 
LowbrowDeluxe 2008-01-01 10:19:45 AM  
A Wizard's Staff Has A Knob On The End.

That is all.

 
Another Government Employee 2008-01-01 10:34:06 AM  
Other than the Righteous Brothers song, Not my choices.

Swap Bohemian Rhapsody or Killer Queen for Fat Bottom Girls(actually not a bad song, though)

Got have a Buffett tune. my choice is Cheesburger In Paradise.

Most of the Tom Petty choices provided would work.

American Pie

and

Piano Man (Especially if you have a baby grand piano available)

 
skylabdown 2008-01-01 10:34:35 AM  
The Wild Rover by The Pogues.

/!

Ecobuckeye: Sweet Caroline thirded. You play that in a bar full of drunken Irishmen and and you'd better have your earplugs in.

Ummm, no. If you play that in a bar full of drunken Irish-American fratboy types you might need earplugs. If you play it in a bar full of drunken Irishmen you'll get a lot of ugly looks and someone asking you why you're such a fag.

 
mrjin 2008-01-01 11:03:40 AM  
These are better. Link (new window)

 
StormDawg 2008-01-01 11:09:30 AM  
starleen: No Tubthumping by Chumbawamba?

Not that I endorse it, but that's the one song I was 100% sure would be on the list. Go figure...

 
saminman 2008-01-01 11:12:26 AM  
Rhinestone Cowboy

 
starleen 2008-01-01 11:25:53 AM  
StormDawg, I wish I could say I didn't endorse it, but my conscience won't let me because I have actually sang this song drunk...yesterday

/shame

 
Jjaro 2008-01-01 11:52:15 AM  
I would agree with Journey, but not anything else on the list.

 
mialynneb [recently expired TotalFark] 2008-01-01 11:52:38 AM  
This list is chock full o' fail!

"Pints of Guinness Make You Strong"

Evelyn sits by the elevator doors.
It's been 37 years since James dies on St. Patrick's Day in 1964,
but she could not hold it against him.
There were times when there was nothing she could do but lie in bed all day beside a picture of them together...
A picture of better days...

And just like James, I'll be drinking Irish tonight
and the memory of his last work week wil be gone forever...
Evelyn I'm not coming home tonight,
if we're never together
if I'm never back again
well I swear to god that I'll love you forever
Evelyn I'm not coming home tonight...

In all the years that went by she said she'd always love him
and from the day that he died she never loved again.
In his wallet she kept in her nightstand an A.A. card and a lock of red hair.
She kept secrets of pride locked so tight in her heart
it killed a part of her before the rest was gone.
She said, "if I would have known just how things would have ended up I just would have let myself die."

And just like James, I'll be drinking Irish tonight
and the memory of his last work week wil be gone forever...
Evelyn I'm not coming home tonight,
if we're never together
if I'm never back again
well I swear to god that I'll love you forever
Evelyn I'm not coming home tonight...

 
Hydra 2008-01-01 12:52:51 PM  
How could they have only gotten one good song on that list (Journey) and completely FAILED on the other four?

No Flock of Seagulls? Blasphemous.

/AND I RAAAAAN, I RAN SOO FARR AWAYYYYYAYYAYAY

 
Prince of Pluto 2008-01-01 12:53:49 PM  
Honorable mention: "The Blarney Stone" by Ween.

 
sneako 2008-01-01 01:06:02 PM
