In China karaoke or KTV is a very popular way for friends to hang out and get wasted.
In Chinese I sing a variety, usually 周杰伦,陈奕迅,五月天 and 信了团. Because the difficulty of these songs impress those listening and also they tend to have deeper and double meanings.
In English my go to is always numb by linkin park (because they were huge in China and well known), all of me by John legend, superstition by Stevie wonder and bat out of hell by meatloaf
