There’s a gun to your head. You must karaoke a U2 song. No, you gotta.

Which one?

I karaoke'd BD in Singapore like 15 years ago.  I was blotto on Tiger beer in a place off Orchard Road near where I used to live.

Not my best moment  :'( ;D

I actually did BD in a Korean restaurant / bar stateside about 20 years ago.  There may have been was definitely Soju involved.  I have not attempted to do any such thing since.

I reviewed the catalog and ended up selecting the gun.

Oh yeah today I would do the same.

I’d love it if there were a David Carradine ending as an option.  That dude did it right, even if it was a tragic mistake.

The only song I could do justice to, within the same range as Bono’s, is Running to Stand Still (studio version).

Not much of a party song, though. So I guess I’d go for I Still Haven’t Found in a lower register in order not to ruin the mood.
A dangerous idea that almost makes sense...
