A list of karaoke songs
by Steve Wallis
3rd May 2006
The following is a list of songs that I have performed on karaoke in public. I have excluded those which I have only performed on my own karaoke machine and those that I cannot do reasonably good versions of. I tend to alternate between overtly political and love songs, and this list contains a mixture of both.
This list is an indication of both the more popular end of my musical taste and the sort of songs that I am good at singing, and should give an indication of the sort of music that I would like Galaxia to perform (although whether we do cover versions of any of these songs will be for the whole band to decide rather than just myself).
