Ah, karaoke. What other activity allows you to casually sing in front of a crowd of complete strangers without feeling completely awkward? Maybe you need a little liquid courage, or maybe you just love to sing and need somewhere to do it. Either way, we know that what you sing at karaoke night says a lot about you, so we've decided to analyze your karaoke song choice.
Anything from an '80s Hair Band
Your top picks:"Sweet Child O' Mine,""Paradise City,""Pour Some Sugar On Me"
You were probably the head cheerleader in high school, and you've got the confidence to pull off the booty shakin' and hair flipping that comes hand in hand with these songs. You've probably danced on the bar with your girlfriends more than once, and you love to have a great time. You always seem to go for the bad boys, but hey, it’s not your fault you have a thing for guys with great hair!
One-Hit Wonders
Your top pics:"Come On Eileen,""Never Gonna Give You Up,""I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)"
One-hit wonders are a tricky business because you never know who will be able to sing along, but you don't care. You march to the beat of your own drum, and there's nothing wrong with that! You like to think that you've got a quirky web presence, and you probably spend a lot more time on Tumblr than you're comfortable to admit. You're probably the funniest person in your friend group... no, definitely the funniest person in your friend group.
Anything a '90s Kid Would Appreciate
Your top picks:"Genie in a Bottle,""Barbie Girl,""Oops!... I Did It Again"
You know what you’re comfortable with, and, as an average '90s girl, these are the songs you’ve spent years perfecting while dancing around in your room with your besties and practicing choreography. You're naturally nost∂algic and love making memories with the people around you. You've considered breaking out the platform sneakers and jellies of your youth, but have opted instead to have killer "vintage" fashion sense. Your pop-culture game is on point, mostly because you spend a majority of your time on sites like Her Campus and Buzzfeed.
Anything Musical Theatre
Your top picks:"Defying Gravity,""I Dreamed a Dream,""I Feel Pretty"
You're used to having all eyes on you, and you don't care if you get some mean side-eye for breaking out a song from your favorite musical. A theatre girl at heart, you can't imagine not breaking out your audition song for every karaoke night. You're supremely confident, but you don't let it get to your head. Okay, you do let it get to your head, but you never know who's in the audience, right?
Anything Your Mom Would Know
Your top picks:"Hold On,""Only the Good Die Young,""Uptown Girl"
You're either a middle-aged woman or you've just got fabulous taste in music. Either way, you don't really care who's watching you, as long as you're having fun. You might be a little bit awkward, but you embrace it as one of your most endearing quirks. You're loyal to the people around you and always stick with what works for you. You definitely have a habit of putting a smile on the faces of everyone around you!
Anything Rap
Your top picks:"Ignition (Remix),""Look At Me Now,""Super Bass"
You're normally pretty quiet, so no one would have guessed that you could rap Busta Rhymes' part in Look At Me Now, but you're a natural. That's because you can do anything that you put your mind to, whether it's learning impossible song lyrics or running a marathon. "Determined" would be the word that most people use to describe you, right after "awesome" and "impressive." You love channeling your inner Nicki Minaj, and no one can pry the mic out of your hand when Super Bass comes on.
Anything About Girl Power
Your top picks:"Man! I Feel Like a Woman!,""Wannabe,""Girls Just Want to Have Fun"
Probably a little bitter over your latest breakup, you're ready to just have some fun. You're a natural-born leader who knows what she wants when she wants it, and what you want right now is to let loose. You’ve got a group of girlfriends by your side, and you’re about to let the whole bar know it. You all may not be the best singers, but the second “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” comes on, y’all are screaming the chorus like your lives depend on it.
Anything by Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey or Barbra Streisand
Your top picks:"Hero,""I Will Always Love You,""My Heart Will Go On"
Not far off from the musical-theatre lover, you are majorly confident and you don't care what people say when you break out a power ballad. You're either an only child or really used to getting your way. You might be a diva, but you know that a diva is a female version of a hustler. The only problem is, you may not be quite as flawless of a singer as your mother has been telling you all of these years. Whatever, haters gonna hate.
Anything That You Would Hear at Last Call
Your top picks:"Hey Jude,""Closing Time,""Piano Man"
You're probably a middle child who has spent her life seeking out a little extra attention, and there's nothing wrong with that! You're always looking to make things interesting, because you believe that a little competition never hurt anybody. Not to be outdone, you are the girl who is always closing it down. You know that songs like “Hey Jude” should never come before last call. Bonus points if you get the crowd to sing along.
There are so, so many great karaoke songs out there that it was impossible to break it down for everyone, but if you've got any ideas we didn't mention, leave your thoughts in the comments below!
