If you're brave enough to get up and sing in front of crowd of people, we applaud you. For most folks, however, singing karaoke is almost a foolproof way to make yourself look like an idiot. Unfortunately, people who wouldn't normally share their less-than-stellar singing voice with the world tend to grab the mic thanks to a little liquid courage. Here, we've complied some of the funniest karaoke videos on YouTube.
