Jeeeeesuz, this is becoming a regular Saturday night thing.
I couldn't decide on the first song so Sam chose for me, and then a bunch of drunk karaokers who spoke English pushed Sam and I to duet on the second and third, and I then duetted on Dancing Queen with Hari, who kept telling me how much she loved Billy Elliot. I think there was a Madonna song in there somewhere, possibly at the end, but by then I'd had rather enough beer.
Every Breath You Take - The Police
White Christmas - Bing Crosby
Last Christmas - Wham
Dancing Queen - ABBA
Was sorely tempted to give Toxic by Britney Chav a whirl, purely so I could put my Southern American accent on and do it Nickelcreek style. Decided against that.
The bar we went to, which has a 100% Scotch License (whatever that means), even has maracas, so you can shake along when the mood takes you. Last Christmas was accompanied by maracas and a tambourine, and then the very drunk man with the tambourine serenaded me with some sort of xmas song in Japanese. His friends 'gomen nasai'd" me a lot afterwards.
I would NEVER do this kind of thing back home. What is going on?
