Rush - Freewill

YES! I'm glad someone suggested a Rush song.

Rush - Freewill

If Tom chooses not to decide on a song, he still has made a choice.

A couple campy selections

  • If I Could Turn Back Time
  • All I Wanna Do is Make Love To You

In a nod to NJ native Sinatra and punk stylings, you could do

  • My Way (sid vicious style)

Loverboy - Turn Me Loose
KISS - Black Diamond

EDIT:
Perhaps "The Kid is Hot Tonite" would be a more appropriate Loverboy song.

I was thinking Helen Wheels by Wings.  Thats a great song.  Wings are so good.

but I'd also love to hear Tom do Waterloo by ABBA.

Perhaps an ELO song.  I love the idea of "Telephone Line," but b/c that's probably a bit too slow, maybe "Livin' Thing."

Dio - Rainbow in the Dark. Just kidding.

I was thinking a Bond theme would be amazing. Live and Let Die? Technically a slow song I guess.

I liked Chas's pick: Surrender. That's appropraitely epic. I can tell you from countless karaoke experiences it's rough to hit the high notes. What about Auf Weidersehen?! The handful of times I saw Cheap Trick they would close out a show with either Dream Police or Auf Weidersehen. Either of those would be stellar, though I love Auf Weidersehen.

"Common People," by Pulp.

...No?

"Dead End Justice," by the Runaways surely!

My personal karaoke fave: "What's Up" by 4 Non Blondes (this song is awesome when sung by a dude).

YOU'RE IN LUCK MY FRIEND!!!

Come on, how much do you want to see a video of Tom Scharpling at the bottom of that webpage?!

They used to be called just "Tramp" until they wrote THIS song.

Please Tom, consider this classic.
