- garvallagh, on 03/27/2009, -0/+89NO.10 - "BORN IN THE U.S.A."
BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN
Never mind the political nature of this one, Bruce Springsteen's “Born in the U.S.A.” is a common karaoke song for guys thanks to its anthemic chorus and that recognizable opening keyboard. This is a good choice among the tone-deaf, as it’ll sound just fine if you’re more likely to scream it than sing it.
NO.9 - "YOU SHOOK ME ALL NIGHT LONG"
AC/DC
Singing any AC/DC song could leave you without a voice for a few days afterwards, but it could be worth it. Trying to duplicate the vocals of Brian Johnson basically forces you to give it 100% -- closed eyes, white-knuckle grip on the microphone and beet red in the face -- so this is usually a great choice.
NO.8 - "(I CAN'T GET NO) SATISFACTION"
THE ROLLING STONES
If just singing isn’t enough to satisfy your karaoke lust, why not take the opportunity to flop around like Mick Jagger? Many a karaoke night have turned into a Mick Jagger dance-off, and what better place to start than with the karaoke song for guys, “Satisfaction”?
NO.7 - "SWEET CAROLINE"
NEIL DIAMOND
For guys who want to show off their crooning sensitive side, there’s no better way than a soulful rendition of “Sweet Caroline.” This’ll also give you a chance to show off your skills as a roaming lounge singer; you get extra points for crowd participation.
NO.6 - "LIVIN' ON A PRAYER"
BON JOVI
Feeling a little bit more ambitious? This Bon Jovi tune always seems like a good idea right up until you get to the chorus, where you have no choice but to try to reach that ungodly note -- “Whoa-HO!” Ninety-nine percent of guys can’t even come close, but it doesn’t stop them from trying.
NO.5 - "SWEET HOME ALABAMA"
LYNYRD SKYNYRD
Nothing makes for better karaoke than the fake southern drawl required to pull this karaoke song for guys off. The opening riff should be enough to perk up the crowd and get them on your side too. If costumes are required, a sleeveless flannel shirt and torn jeans should do the trick.
NO.4 - "FRIENDS IN LOW PLACES"
GARTH BROOKS
Somehow, this sad-sack tune about a scorned lover made its way to being a karaoke favorite -- then again, any song that sings directly about drinking yourself into a stupor is obvious karaoke fodder. The best part is that the loop-de-loop melody in the chorus is actually easier to sing under the influence.
NO.3 - "CECILIA"
SIMON & GARFUNKEL
For guys who head to karaoke nights in an attempt to pick up, this catchy Simon & Garfunkel ditty is a must. It offers a chance to show off the pipes, and sing a little heartbroken love song at the same time. Of course, if you don’t pull it off, chances are you’re heading home alone.
NO.2 - "DON'T STOP BELIEVING"
JOURNEY
After experiencing a resurgence in popularity thanks to The Sopranos and The Family Guy, chances are you’ll catch this tune more than once on any given karaoke night. Hell, you’ll even find some people with choreographed routines. The song provides ample opportunities for rock star leg kicks and intense finger-pointing, so it’s sure to bring out the performer in just about anyone who has the guts to try to match Steve Perry’s vocal range
NO.1 - "BORN TO BE WILD"
STEPPENWOLF
It’s repetitive, it doesn’t require a lot of work, and most men associate it with Easy Rider. “Born to Be Wild” is without a doubt the song you’re most likely to see performed by a 45-year-old man wearing aviator shades and a leather vest.
List lacks Sultans of Swing and Cocaine Blues - thebasshacker, on 03/26/2009, -0/+28You can only sing Bohemian Rhapsody when in a car with three other people. No excuses.
- inactive, on 03/27/2009, -0/+28Thank you for clicking through all ten goddamn pages so I don't have to. Greedy ***** askmen.com trying to juice me for page hits.
- inactive, on 03/27/2009, -8/+29Or The Top 10 Doucheiest songs ever.
- pitchblack16, on 03/26/2009, -2/+23Message to Digg: Can you please, please fix that damn dupe engine cause it works for ***** and it's really starting to irritate me.
- Aesire, on 03/27/2009, -2/+20Buried not just for being another damn top ten list, but also for making you click ten times.
Diggs to garvallagh though for posting the entire "article" in one comment. - twinegarden, on 03/27/2009, -1/+17I find that this list is full of crappy songs for douchey fratboy types. Also, askmen.com is a ***** website.
- RumpleForeskin3, on 03/27/2009, -3/+16NO.0 - "TOM SAWYER"
RUSH - chattin, on 03/27/2009, -0/+1110 pages? Really? I've always been a fan of singing Don Mclean's American Pie...8.5 minutes of limelight.
- inactive, on 03/27/2009, -4/+14These are sucky selections that are in all kinds of different vocal ranges and don't really rev up a crowd.
My personal favorite sure shot party starters:
-Give It Away, Red Hot Chili Peppers
-Personal Jesus, Depeche Mode
-Wynona's Big Brown Beaver, Primus
-99 Problems, Jay-Z
-Humpty Dance, Digital Underground
-Wild Thing/Funky Cold Medina, Ton Loc
-Don't You Forget About Me, Simple Minds
Also Sister Christian by NightRanger is the ***** karaoke anthem. - elfuego, on 03/27/2009, -0/+10Not that many guys have the vocal range to sing Livin' On A Prayer or Don't Stop Believing... and they're both songs that sound like ***** if you drop the octave. American Pie or Bohemian Rhapsody are both as epic or moreso, but much less brutal to your vocal chords.
- spoofer56, on 03/26/2009, -2/+11No Bohemian Rhapsody?
- armakaryk, on 03/27/2009, -0/+8NO.i - pretty much anything by Rush.
- henismightier, on 03/27/2009, -0/+8When ***** like this is happening:

it's ***** broken. - hagfish70, on 03/27/2009, -1/+8Or you can sing whatever the f@ck you want and not worry what people think. After a couple of drinks, it won't matter anyway.
Another stupid article from askmen.com. C'mon diggers. The target audience for this site is douchey homophobic jock types. I expect better that this from you guys. - Jhiaxuz, on 03/27/2009, -3/+10***** by Dennis Leary. Never mind those ample piles of tards who think they were rocking in the 70s because they know the lyrics to Sweet Home Alabama and think they're badass. Kind of like the kids who wear Beatles shirts and think they're cool but couldn't name four songs if their life depended on it.
I'm an ***** and I'm proud of it. - FearlessFreep, on 03/27/2009, -2/+8Has askmen replaced doubleviking as the auto-front-page-stupid-vaguely-men's-site ??
- dizavin, on 03/27/2009, -0/+6wow... that list was really F'ing lame.
ask men should ask some men, for once. - dhughes, on 03/27/2009, -0/+6 A good one is Billy Idol's "White Wedding" it's low and slow.
Shotgun! - mrmrok, on 03/27/2009, -2/+7not on the list but the only song i can probably pull off if i ever tried would be
Biz Markey's - Just a Friend - barcelona10, on 03/26/2009, -2/+7cecilia is a fantastic song... I'd have to be pretty liquored up to karaoke it though.
- inactive, on 03/27/2009, -0/+5I know you're definitely annoying.
- gametavern, on 03/27/2009, -0/+5for sure, but it pains me to watch someone ***** it up.
- Chakz, on 03/27/2009, -0/+5I was slappin da bass.
- wpc33, on 03/27/2009, -0/+5I think you might be gay.
- inactive, on 03/27/2009, -0/+5slappin da bass mon
- pault107, on 03/27/2009, -0/+4I like how Lynyrd Skynyrd ripped off Kid Rock on his track "Sweet Home Alabama".
If I were a troll, that would be the kind of stuff I'd write. But I'm not, so I wont. But I did. - abol684, on 03/27/2009, -0/+4buried for being on 10 pages.
- pagit, on 03/27/2009, -0/+4"What What (In the Butt) really knocks them over
- FearlessFreep, on 03/27/2009, -1/+5How often do Tom Sawyer and karaoke really come together?
- davidrools, on 03/27/2009, -0/+4and a red rope licorice dispenser in the roof
- sadisticmind, on 03/27/2009, -0/+4you sound like a leprechaun
- pdxnick, on 03/27/2009, -0/+4who could forget piano man?
- TheThirdLevel, on 03/27/2009, -0/+3Agree. You need the chorus.
- tcasey22, on 03/27/2009, -0/+3I'm sorry but no KISS - Love Gun ?????????? Are you kidding? Next time Ask real Men.
- boerema, on 03/27/2009, -0/+3I agree with twinegarden. I would also add that most of these songs are sweet if you can pull them off. That being said, 100% of men who read AskMen.com cannot sing.
- frostbyt, on 03/27/2009, -1/+4Just a small town girl, livin in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin anywhere... - geekwithsoul, on 03/27/2009, -0/+3Probably just used the "print page" option

- trdrstv, on 03/27/2009, -0/+3Is there any other way to do Karaoke ?
- inactive, on 03/28/2009, -0/+2Yes, the AC/DC song. That's the worst AC/DC song ever. The most overplayed, generic, retarded song that's played at ***** weddings with your 60 year old grandma singing along.
I hate that song with a passion. And I have every AC/DC album. - yacks, on 03/28/2009, -0/+2It's fun to sing
"it's not unusual" by Tom Jones and also doing the Carlton Dance while doing it.. :) That's a blast.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zS1cLOIxsQ8 - nickpl34, on 03/27/2009, -1/+3Just a city boy, born in raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train goin anywhere.. - unclefire, on 03/27/2009, -0/+2Just a city boy born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train going anywhere
---
there is no South Detroit
and there is no midnight train in detroit either. - inactive, on 03/27/2009, -2/+4What, no Bloodhound Gang?
Buried for Neil Diamond, Livin' On A Prayer, Cecelia (really, AskMen? Really?!), 11 pages for 10 songs, perhaps the worst "best" list ever, and the entire writing and editorial staff at "AskMen.com", who apparently never have (asked men).
A special note to AskMen.com: ***** you all, you useless sack of rotten fartspacers. Quit wasting electrons that could be used fo something, anything, useful... and good day, SIRS. - patburke1980, on 03/27/2009, -0/+2"Now shave off my pubs and punch me in the face."
- patburke1980, on 03/27/2009, -0/+2Jessie's Girl - Rick Springfield.
Great ***** karaoke song. -
