| From the Where2sing.com forum: MB: here's another way of looking at it. Hosts, and patrons for that matter, often complain about how the 'karaoke classics' get done to death but don't seem to do much to address the issue, there's just a hope that other songs will get sung. Well, you can force the issue by not having those songs in the list.
If you think having long meat loaf songs or boring celine soon songs on sung at your gig will suck the energy out of the room, don't offer them. There's no rule that says a host has to have set songs on the list and I applaud any host who says 'songs that don't contribute to the atmosphere I'm trying to create won't be available'. People seem to forget that its the host that builds the list and its a much better policy than the 'no slow songs after 10' rule that is implemented at certain venues...
