Welcome back to another school year and another year of Melissa’s Mixtape! Each week I’ll bring you a set of songs around a theme, experience, etc. The best part? You can stream the mixtape on our website. With all the stress of heading back to school, it’s very important to take some time out of the day (or at least the weekend) to unwind and have some fun. Looking for an especially good way to chill out? Sing some karaoke. Nothing soothes the soul quite like belting out your favorite nostalgic hit to a room full of complete strangers. Grab your friends and head out on the town for your fifteen minutes of rock and roll fame. Don’t forget to integrate some of your best dance moves! These are some of my favorite karaoke jams:
1) “Total Eclipse of the Heart” by Bonnie Tyler off of “Faster Than the Speed of Night”
2) “Any Way You Want It” by Journey off of “Departure”
3) “Detroit Rock City” by KISS off of “Destroyer”
4) “Believe” by Cher off of “Believe”
5) “We’re Not Gonna Take It” by Twisted Sister off of “Stay Hungry”
6) “Thunder Road” by Bruce Springsteen off of “Born to Run”
7) “Walking on Broken Glass” by Annie Lenox off of “Diva”
8) “Take On Me” by a-ha off of “Hunting High and Low”
9) “Rocket Man (I Think It’s Going To Be A Long, Long Time)” by Elton John off of “Honky Château”
10) “We Built This City” by Starship off of “Knee Deep in the Hoopla”
