themed karaoke

As part of my unwinding after the IRS yesterday, I stayed up to go to Changes for karaoke. My first song was a new one for me, "Don't Know Why" by Norah Jones, and I think I'll keep that one in rotation, because it's pretty, comfortable for me, and a reasonable tempo. After I sang that one, I found out that the optional theme for the night was "1970s," so I rummaged through the book, came up with about eight songs, and gave the slips to Ryan, and let him pick my songs for the night... and so:

"Magic Man" (not bad, but I think I slide into psuedo-operatic head voice, rather than rocker);

"Tell Me Something Good" (another one oddly in my range, and fun);

"Takin' It to the Streets' (meh -- people enjoyed it, but I think it's not ideal for me): and, my choice to close out the night and make people think twice about the theme next time:

"You Make Me Feel Like Dancing" (delighting Seth, the bartender, and causing several people to fall over in hysterical giggles -- at least I think they were giggling -- and one man to admit to liking "Thunder In My Heart")

I wonder what next week's theme will be....
