SingStar

[mrph]

• NYE is not the right day to go shopping for songs to download for your PS3 SingStar game. Everyone else is trying to do the same thing, at the same time. It won't cope too well.
• SingStar really shouldn't allow you to do your own karaoke version of Leonard Cohen's Famous Blue Raincoat.
• ...or Joy Division's Love Will Tear Us Apart, for that matter.
• On the other hand, Falco's Rock Me Amadeus is a welcome addition to the catalogue. Although it's not the easiest one to sing...
• ...and if you really want to sing along to Auld Lang Syne, you can get Die Toten Hosen's version on one of the German PS2 releases. Might be a bit hard to find, though. :)

I managed to get Lead Singer on Duran Duran's Union of the Snake, which is better than I can do on anything else. Probably for similar reasons... :-)

The only other one I've managed Singstar on was a U2 song I only knew because it was on the disk... so it's probably easy to sing or I have the right range for it or something.

I will have a look at some point and see what else I can find. One of the joys of being on maternity leave is that I can play singstar at 10am on a Monday morning if I so desire ;)
