Anything by 'U2' (get it ...get it.. You Two... :roll: )....How's about U2's 'Sunday Bloody Sunday'...The Guests probably wouldn't have a Danny La Rue What The Lyrics Are About Anyway....and its got the word 'Sunday' in it...perfect

I think the key Bono sings in is a little on the high side for most amateur singers BM :D :D
If not used to singing in public then something a little more "laid back" might be in order - something more along the Frank Sinatra (my way ???) or Dean Martin style. Especially if going to have a beer or 3 to relax first..... :D :D

It has been my experience that it does not matter what language you sing in as long as you give it a bash.
The first time I did it was an unaided version of House of the Rising Sun, out in the boonies, no falang music and it was the only song I could remember all the way through. I sounded like a strangled cat but they seemed to appreciate the effort all the same.
It has since lead to a few mind blowing performances amongst various UM members whom I am sure will agree that is mind boggling that I have not been offered a multi million pound recording contract. :lol:

Sing what you like and just enjoy it but this does help :guiness:

D'oh sorry Roy... Didn't see that. #-o

To be serious "Wonderful Tonight" isn't a hard song to sing.

Here is the karaoke version to practice to.
