Talk about a hit song.

Six Connecticut women are facing assault charges for attacking a Westchester County woman for her amateurish karaoke performance at a bar, police said Friday.

Leidy Alcantara, 25, was singing "A Dios Le Pido" by Colombian superstar Juanes on Wednesday night when suspect Kiana Strickland, 20, began heckling her, cops said.

"I was singing the song in Spanish, and some girl said I was very annoying," Alcantara told the Daily News.

"I didn't know she was talking to me, and I said, 'Excuse me, are you talking to me?'"

"'Yeah, you're very annoying,'" Alcantara quoted Strickland as saying.

"Then she said something else and punched me in my face," Alcantara said.

Stamford Police Lt. Sean Cooney said, "The verbal exchange didn't go well."

Strickland slapped Alcantara, and then her five friends joined in, kicking, punching and pulling Alcantara's hair, police said.

"I was covering my face on the floor, crying, feeling all the punching and kicking," Alcantara said. "I felt the pain all over my body."

Bad karaoke is hard to stomach.

Sure, laugh off a racially-motivated hate crime as being due to “bad karaoke.”

Thank you, Lieutenant Obvious.

I think the cops must rehearse these lines in advance and save them up for the opportunity.

No pics were necessary, I knew from the name of the one suspect that we were dealing with Oboma voters.

I just hope they check those six women to see if they are taking flying lessons.
