What do you sing when you're drunk?

[brokenbetty]

This is a question occasioned by my being drunk right now and singing Nancy Sinatra /Lee Hazelwood duets, and realising that probably happens more often than it should do (the duets, not the drinking. Well actually both)

So, our top drinking artistes:

Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazelwood - go saccharine underground
The Magnetic Fields
Roy Orbison (one from the BF)

Who are yours?

I slide silently down the wall that's supporting me when I'm drunk.

A friend of mine always used to sing Iron Man, by Black Sabbath, when he'd had a few. When he eventually got married a few years back, when the time came for the first dance, we were all expecting the usual sort of thing- and the DJ put on Iron Man. S***** and his best man did a mosh to it playing air guitar. I don't think his bride knew whether to laugh or punch him!

Some confusion there BB?
The thread title asks 'which songs', but the OP appears to ask 'which artistes', anyway, I sing.....

McGinty's Meal and Ale, doesn't everyone?

Have to admit I usually just end up repeating the chorus

[Keith Oates]

I usually manage at least one rendering of "Where be that Blackbird be" a good Cornish song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Steve H]

Bye bye, Miss American Pie. Don't even know the words sober, but it all comes flooding back whenever I have a staggering walk home from a pub

A falsetto 'heartbreaker' by led zep with full thigh-drum solo.

Or 'stand by your man' by tammy winette. Depending on the mood.

[Gerry Attrick]

Almost without exception, it is "O Sole Mio".

Trouble is I'm a baritone rather than a tenor, so it never sounds right.

That's my excuse anyway.

 

[Maverick Goose]

Drink Up Thee Zider by the mighty Wurzels

 

[ventoux50]

Usually a bad rendition of either 'You are so beautiful' in the style of Joe Cocker, or 'Wonderful tonight' a la Clapton. . . . . . . . . . . . .

sung with feeling to my gorgeous wife









never get to finish it though cos I generally end up blubbing !

 

[cookiemonster]

I very rarely get drunk, I don't think I've been drunk for a long time.

The reason being, apart from hating being drunk and hating hangovers even more, is that I always want to get naked when I'm drunk

I don't sing, I just want to take all my clothes off for some reason

 

[Liza]

I don't really sing, I just end up talking way to much...not that getting drunk is a regular occasion

[wobbler]
