What I Did On Sunday
On Sunday a friend of mine had a Hen Day (should've been a Hen Night, but some of us are lame and don't drink/go clubbing) and we spent it by having an insane 2pm to 9pm karaoke marathon in a karaoke room that was so huge that there was more than enough space for all ten of us to jump around and dance.

Songs that always turn up for our karaoke sessions: Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody"*, REO Speedwagon's "I Can't Fight This Feeling Anymore", Celine & Peabo's "Beauty and the Beast" (we always butcher it somehow) and Spice Girls' "Who Do You Think You Are". I was also edumacated on the latest hip-hop/pop songs, and am now familiar with more Rihanna songs that I know what to do with.

*A friend commented that I go particularly crazy during Queen songs. This is true. I am so intimately acquainted with Queen's musical CV that I get excited at the mere mention of them.

At one point someone added "Under the Sea" to the songlist, which was a surprise to me (not all of them are aware of my crazy love for TLM) but it was way fun for all of us to sing along together and I didn't need to look at the lyrics... Then at the very end, after the last long "Under the seaaaaaa" bit and the music ended, I lowered my voice and said into the microphone: "Ariel? Someone's got to nail those girl's fins to the floor."

And because my friends are awesome, they applauded. \o/

Karaoke sessions are always fun. Red Box, Pavilion KL? :P And it's awesome that you made that reference after Under the Sea! Oh and to be honest, I can never sing the middle part of the song where Sebastian goes the newt play the flute, the carp play the harp... That's all I know. :/

Nah, we were at the Red Box in Sogo because they have good rates for big groups. Funnily enough we managed to sing through the middle bit of "Under the Sea" because we were all really hyper and high on caffeine (FREE FLOW DRINKS YESSSSSS)... I was just really surprised that someone got it into their head to list up a whole bunch of Disney songs, so we sang a whole bunch from Beauty, The Lion King, Aladdin and TLM. XD XD

Ahh Sogo! My hangout place during my primary school days. XD I didn't know there are that many Disney songs to pick! The last time I was at a Red Box there was such a limited choice. D:

My mom used to have "hen parties" with her friends. I'm sure yours are a lot more exciting though! :-P

This whole post makes me wish there were more karaoke places in North America. (And not just a karaoke machine on a stage at a bar)

At least I have Rock Band, I guess.

And I also meant to say...

I agree: Yay 90's music! I love Spice Girls <3 I've been meaning to see Spice World again XD

Hen Party = Girl Power!

GAK I would never sing at one of those... I want to have fun with my friends, not have strangers watch me embarrass myself.

Turns out that the Spice Girls songs are the easiest to sing of the lot!
