All right, Deadsplinter. This DUAN is gonna be fun and it’s gonna be LOUD.
Are you ready to rock?! Let’s crank that volume knob up to 11!!!
Grab a hairbrush/microphone and get ready to sing at the top of your lungs. 🎤 🎶
Share with everyone a song (or two or three) that every time it comes on, you just can’t help but max out the volume and belt out every word!
THANK YOU DEADSPLINTER AND GOODNIGHT!!! 🤘
This is the first one I think of when I think of tunes that need cranking and screaming. It’s also incredibly well recorded, which adds to the fun. The Black Crowes – Horsehead
The live version of Clapton’s cover of Blues Power is another good cranker.
Are You Gonna Be My Girl – Jet
Pretty sure I’ve been belting this one out since I was a kid…
Ethel Merman was good for belting out songs, and if you ever go to a gay piano bar patronized by men of a certain age and one of hers comes on, insert your earplugs.
This is always the first thing I think about when I think about Ethel Merman:
Ethel Merman had some serious vocal cords!
Merman was married four times, her last being to Ernest Borgnine in 1964. It lasted about 5 or 6 weeks. Imagine what their arguments sounded like, and I’m sure there were many.
“No you can’t.”
“Yes I caaaaaaaaaa-”
“Yes you can.”
“-aaaaaaan!”
Apologies to the resident JBJ acolyte, whom I may be pipping to the post. This is a karaoke classic.
Bon Jovi, “Livin’ On A Prayer”:
And this one is always in the house.
Bonnie Tyler, “Total Eclipse of the Heart”
cant help meself with that one
tbh….i quite happily belt along with most of their stuff
True confession, Deadsplinter. And I know I’ll lose all credibility after posting this. When I was barely a teen my sister would borrow my parents car and we, along with a couple of friends would go cruising and get high. We were the cool kids and yet when this song came on the radio we’d all belt out the chorus unironically. Good times.
Barry Manilla – Mandy
My favourite parody of your song:
Lol
No credibility lost. There are people here who like this. You know who you are.
That’s assuming I had any credibility to begin with!
Dammit autocorrect Barry Manilow!
I thought you were trying to say “Barry Vanilla” as a commentary. Have we had a “secret shame” theme for DUAN yet? I’m sure everyone has one.
THAT would be an excellent DUAN topic.
Great idea!
I was going to do a guilty pleasures DUAN but I figured I’d just be annoying everyone.
DO IT!!!
or…for a more recent i must belt alonger…
for this song alone i forgive tiktok for all the other annoying crap
this version is currently being played the crap out of on the more edm focused radio stations here..lol
come to think of it…the local edm stations tend to get obsessed by odd/funny stuff over here
i guess its tradition now
(that was a huge hit here)
The Vines – Get Free
on that note
Excellent theme. Some songs that I belt out in the shower:
Cock Sparrer – I Got Your Number
Sham 69 – If The Kids Are United
I’ve been known to belt some Cher songs too
Quiet Riot – Cum on Feel the Noize
Come on people! Where’s the Priest?
This is a crank the volume and air guitar song more than a sing-along, with Prince.
I guess some other guys too, but they couldn’t really keep up with him.

One of my favorite car radio singing songs!
this song is just pure fun and I crank it up when I hear it
Super late to the party with this one. I spent the day humming to my Google song recognizing widget thingy and only just now cracked the code with a whopping 12% match. Obviously I don’t know a single lyric and I’m completely tone deaf but! this song still gets me to shout mumbled lyrics and rock out.
Still Loving You – Scorpions
I can’t believe I got to the end here and didn’t see any Adele?
