The #1 song to sing at noraebang is...?

Posted by BEASTmode0 pt Wednesday, December 16, 2009

Translated as "singing room," noraebang is Korean karaoke, an activity that is incredibly popular in Korea for all ages. Usually there is a cheesy scenic video, which is completely irrelevant to the song itself, that is played on screen as you sing. I've seen everything from '80s European vacation videos to poopiness a small naked boy with his wang out playing in the ocean. It doesn't even matter if you can sing or not because there is no judgment made inside noraebangs. Plus, you'd be too drunk to even notice you or any other person is singing off-key or off-tune. feelTONG, an online karaoke website, monitored the most played song at these frequently visited noraebangs from January 1 to December 9. The results of the poll declared Lee Eun Mi's I Have a Lover as the winner. If the name doesn't ring a bell, you have most likely heard a rendition of it performed by your favorite idol group. Countless artists have done a cover of I Have a Lover so it is only reasonable that the timeless song is a favorite of the nation as well. cr:doolee10 In at second place was SNSD's Gee, which recently won GomTV's title of MV of the Year. Its addictive hook and fast beats have taken the nation by storm in what is known as the "Gee craze." cr: sment Third place was awarded to Davichi's 8282, a track that alternates between a techno beat to a slower one, which proved to be a chart-topping hit in the earlier half of the year. cr: AlShinlove2 Norazo's Superman, Baek Ji Young's Like Being Hit By a Bullet and Big Mama's Resignation were also honorable mentions in the poll. Big Mama's Resignation is no stranger to karaoke bars, however, as it has earned first place in 2007 and 2nd place in 2008, maintaining its title as one of the Best TOP10 steady sellers. cr: muishiessi cr: won9treecool cr: modestnumbers A representative of feelTONG stated, "Mostly ballad and dance tracks were ranked high, but a few trot songs have gained popularity as well. Park Sang Chul's Dust Storm and Unconditional rose to 11th and 13th place respectively." In addition to the top noraebang songs mentioned above, some of my personal favorites to belt out in the disco-lit corner of noraebangs include Can't I? by Wheesung, Run To You by DJ Doc, Champion by Psy and virtually everything by Koyote. What are yours?
