I’ve seen lists of songs with deep lyrics, songs that are upbeat but depressing at the same time, songs not on the radio, and other things like that… But I have never seen a list of songs that are just super fun to sing.
Some examples of things I like singing are Lewis Capaldi, anything by Chris Cornell (though I wish I could have that awesome gutteral/growly sound in my voice), Cottonmouth, Nirvana, RHCP, Tool, etc. I love long sustains and just dudes and dudettes belting out staccato. The feeling of matching pitch and tone you get in your stomach and lungs as the sounds reverberate together is exhilarating. Not to mention the catharsis of putting your heart and soul into singing along with an angry song when you’re pissed.
Presuming you’re fine not exactly being good at it, multiple different style singers and switching is hard. Actually maybe jst to sing and not necessarily kareoke
So many people across different demographics get into older songs, regardless of genre. The best songs to sing are ones that you can hit the notes and not put the crowd/your friends to sleep to.
Agreed. If the crowd your with is big Wayne’s World fans, it slaps. But I’ve found more often than not, the 20 minute solos kinda kill the momentum. I wish it was better received, as I am a HUGE Queen fan.
But imagine the joy of blasting out in a crowded room: Devil, just come on back if you ever wanna try again 'cause I told you once you SON OF A BITCH I’m the best that’s ever been!
A lot of great answers in here. Another one that I’ve never seen/heard fail to get crowd participation is “It’s My Life” by Bon Jovi.
Basically any song that has a really catchy chorus and allows you to sing it whether you’re on or off-key is a winner, because karaokes are all about having fun with it.
Anything by Linkin park for me. I would also really like to fuck up a karaoke joint when they let me sing slipknot or drowning pool or something like that. Another great sing along song is radioactive by imagine dragons.

Gotta say for a duet (male/female) keep feeling fascination by the Human League. It’s a fun song, good chorus.
Tequila!
Sweet Caroline - Neil diamond

These songs always get the crowd really into it!
We got the moves - electric callboy

Karma chameleon is fire. Pretty much anything by ABBA
My gotos:
Old school == Best school, IMO

Have fun with it!
My #1 karaoke song is Rehab by Amy Winehouse
Bohemian Rhapsody is always fun.
I will give warning that sometimes its awkward during the Guitar Solo if youre just standing there or not a dancer

“The Devil Went Down To Georgia” by The Charlie Daniels Band
I’ve been so tempted to do this, but there are some long stretches without lyrics and it’s a fairly long song too.
But imagine the joy of blasting out in a crowded room:
Devil, just come on back if you ever wanna try again
'cause I told you once you SON OF A BITCH
I’m the best that’s ever been!
Lol oh I have! It just hasn’t won out over the gaps and length
Pretty much anything that let’s you belt it out and really yell into the mic.
Most songs from Blink-182 are fun to sing.
+1 to Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond, that’s a classic.
I Guess That’s Why They Call It The Blues by Elton John
Either Get Ready to Die or Party Hard by Andrew W.K.
Come to My Window by Melissa Etheridge if you can hit the high notes
Gompie’s version of Who the X is Alice? If you have an audience that doesn’t mind cursing and might have fun singing along.

Poker face by Lady Gaga! Anything that lets you shamelessly yell to be honest.
Anything by Linkin park for me. I would also really like to fuck up a karaoke joint when they let me sing slipknot or drowning pool or something like that. Another great sing along song is radioactive by imagine dragons.
-Starlight by Muse is probably in your style with the long held passages, if you’ve got the high range for it.
-Mr. Brightside is always fun, and it’s almost all one note!
-Pretty much anything by the Goo Goo Dolls
-All For You by Sister Hazel
-Learn to Fly by the Foo Fighters
I like a lot of 90s and early 2000s stuff :)
Hell yeah for Starlight. One of my favorites from Muse. I’ve been told I even sound like Matt.
