This one’s a Valentine’s gift for my older readers: karaoke versions of love-themed (or lust-themed) hits from my misspent youth!
If you’re in the Toronto area and looking for something to do tonight, Jason Rolland’s hosting a Hard Luck Tuesday Anti-Valentine’s Karaoke night, in which love songs are completely banned. It’s at the Hard Luck Bar tonight (772 Dundas West, 2 blocks west of Bathurst) at 10:00 p.m.. I’d go, but I’m otherwise occupied – I just want to show some support for Jason!
As a matter of fact, I happen to know “that trick”.
I love those laserdic karaoke videos where they add footage that matches the song lyrics but is too cheesy for words or doesn’t really match the song at all. Here’s an example of the latter.
This song will always remind me of drinking Jack-and-cokes with cute mopeygoth girls at Montreal’s Thunderdome club during “Kill McGill” when I was in grade 14. (As you might expect, it’s a long story.)
Gotta get some classic rock in there!
Only Depeche Mode can say “Shu’cho mouf, baby” in a really romantic way.
Okay, this isn’t a karaoke version, but the album version with lyrics on the video. Still, it’s one of my faves from that era.
