For shame. Yeah, it's cliché and a bit campy, but that's part of the fun. Also part of the fun is the fact that the song spans a wide vocal range and everyone knows the lyrics. It's one of the few songs that no one can really pull off, but people go for it anyway. Pretty epic at its best, and just plain fun during less-than-stellar performances. Seriously, guys. I mean, there's even a book on the history of karaoke that's named after the song: http://www.amazon.com/Dont-Stop-Believin-Karaoke-Conquered/dp/0306815834. That has to be worth something, right?

I love this song because it's fun to sing the lyrics, "I wanna feel the heat with somebody!!!" The Whitney Houston medleys are awesome because they let you sing the best parts of all the hits. Even if I don't win this contest, I NEED the kitty singing kararoke!!! I sure hope you make this t-shirt available for purchase! I will be the first one to buy it!!! Sadly, I can't make it to LA to bust out the jams, but hope someone will sing some Whitney for me! “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” by Whitney Houston.

It was incredible; everyone came up on stage and danced, no one really had to worry about being on key, you don't really need to know the lyrics, and it's slow enough that if you've just sung your heart out to Lauryn Hill's version of 'Can't Take My Eyes Off You', then you can fully catch your breath.
