At the charity that I work for Christmas Party I sang Santa Claus is Coming to Town with the local Mayor. I'm 6ft 2 and she is 5ft and in her 80s. We also sang I Got You Babe. It was describe as one attendee as "surreal". I can hold a tune but I need a bucket.
I once met a girl singing Dancing in the Dark at a karaoke night whilst *fairly* intoxicated - it got to the Courtney Cox bit, I stuck my hand out to call for a dance and she took it, couldn’t believe my luck!!!
I took a grad school class called Bruce Springsteen and Post-Modernism. It was taught by Larry McCaffery, one of the founders of the postmodernism school of literary analysis. Great class. And yet one of the things which has stuck with me was his advice to never try to sing Springsteen karaoke, as it's just too hard. Since I've only ever gone once, and it was before I took that class, I have had no problem following his recommendation.
I've heard a lot worse! Never done Bruce, I once did Diana Ross at a party where I was very drunk - thankfully it was well before the days when everyone had a smart phone!
in 99 there was a mini boardwalk outside the Arena in Jersey. I crooned a version of I'm on Fire.

Drunken karaoke is certainly safer than drunken roller derby.
Drunk karaoke is better than roller derby.
