REO SPEEDWAGON'S AGING FRONT MAN KEVIN CRONIN
Just a quick highlight from Will Leitch’s interview with the legend in in New York Magazine:
We think “Can’t Fight This Feeling” is an amazing karaoke song.
How does one discern whether a given song is good or bad for karaoke?
…allow me to take the point on this one, Will. Well, Kevin, a “good” karaoke song is one that is easily identifiable to the drunken masses, even as you stumble, mumble, and generally butcher the artistic work in question,”Louie, Louie” and “Don’t Stop Believin'” are sure fires. A “bad” karaoke song is anything written by, or associated with “Now That’s What I Call Music” (Volumes II thru XI)
“Can’t Fight This Feeling” is definitely a good karaoke song. Anything that won’t make people cringe is a solid idea. REO songs are apparently also good in a video game. Find Your Own Way Home is an online video game for REO lovers…and you can karaoke the whole way since the game is full of REO songs, old and new. TheRom.com will tell you all you need to know.
