singing the songs that make the whole world sing

One of my favorite lyrics to any song is from Garbage's Bleed Like Me. It says, "JT gets all fucked up in some karaoke bar. After two drinks he's a loser. After three drinks he's a star." That is so true.

Tonight, we sang. I started off doing some of my standards. Luckily, we got there early enough to sing at least four songs each so I was able to try a new one out, "Darling Nikki" by Prince. My housemate has recently turned me onto that song and it's my favorite Prince song now. Unfortunately he shrieks at the end and I didn't have quite enough drinks in me to do that. However, two of my companions who have never sang before each got up there and they were stars.
