Pretty much universally terrible. The Wilco one seems almost okay.
Edit: But there is a lot to be said for the old Punk Rock motto - if you can't say it in 2 minutes it's too long.

Was expecting someone else to give us this one. No I don't like it, LOL.

Thought I'd give this one a try at karaoke in college since I've got a nice deep Jim Morrison voice. I forgot there was a 12 minute breakdown in the middle of the song.
It's puzzling how the Beatles would have ever broken up over her.
One more ..
That song does build a groove. It might be less-annoying than the others, it has sonic buildup and it's an instrumental, so it works OK as background music, therefore "un-jolting" at a gathering.

Never NEVER do a karaoke song you haven't practiced in private.
Unless you're drunk.
Which you pretty much have to be to do karaoke in the first place.
The problem with karaoking when I'm good and liquored up is I have a tendency to ad lib and replace words of songs. We got stuck at sea one time on what may have been the worst ship of Carnival's fleet. I got banned from doing karaoke because I replaced the words to Neil Diamond's "Coming to America" with lines about how we're stuck at sea on a crappy boat and expensive alcohol. I also got my Carnival Fun Pass taken away for a day.
I'm always changing the words to songs.
It's amazing how many things rhyme with "underpants" and "watching Scooby Do."
Two pages in and no mention of Nickelback yet? Personally I don't mind some of their songs (maybe I shouldn't have said that?) but I know many who can't stand them so I think that probably fits the theme of this question pretty well
Depends on the group I'm trying to disperse. I would play just about anything hard-core rap to move an older crowd out and just about anything honky-tonk country for a younger crowd. I'm sure I could find something to play that could get just about ANYone to leave. Know your audience (then p*ss 'em off by playing what they hate).
