Daydream Believer by The Monkees is Britain's top karaoke tune, according to a new survey.
The singalong hit is the number one choice across the country.
My Way by Frank Sinatra came second followed by the ladies' favourite, I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor.
Ol' Blue Eyes made the poll again at number four with New York, New York, and Robbie Williams was close behind with Angels.
The survey asked 1,000 people to name their favourite karaoke song.
It also asked for their least favourite - and Barbie Girl by Aqua topped the list.
Other tortuous tunes included Meatloaf's Bat Out Of Hell and My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion.
The poll was commissioned by the Hungry Horse pub chain to launch its new Karaoke Krazy competition.
The nationwide contest is raising money for the charity Cancer BACUP and the winning singer will get a £10,000 prize.

1 Daydream Believer - The Monkees

I think he just snorted the last...the greedy little turd......didn't you teach him it's always polite to leave at least one rail on the Lynyrd Skynyrd mirror for the host? No breeding..........
