Man Killed in Fight Over Bad Singing

This is exactly why I don't live within earshot of my neighbors...

Recent newspaper reports have said Philippine karaoke parlors have been removing the Frank Sinatra classic "My Way" from playlists because fights frequently broke out when the song was being sung.

Well, if this guy was butchering the Chairman, Ol' Blue Eyes, the Voice... he got what he had coming. But "My Way" is not all that easy to sing, on the other hand.

the man with the microphone was singing out of tune,

In this country he would probably win a Grammy.

I didn't know the Phillipinos had such discriminating musical tastes.

I sang to my cat a couple weeks ago and she bit me (drew blood, too). Guess I better stay out of karaoke bars.

"The dead man had been trying to put an end to the fight when he was stabbed in the chest, it added."

Ok. Now I'm confused...was the guy already dead when he was stabbed in the chest? That's what it sounds like....ROFLMAO!!!

Let me guess, he was "singing" either "The Pina Colada Song", "Afternoon Delight" or "The Macarena". And HE DESERVED TO DIE!

I will sit thru karaoke before suffering the horror known as barbershop quartet.

What a small world! This guy was blessed with the same singing ability I possess. Apparently we both sing like marble salesmen with a mouth full of samples.

I've been tossed out of a few places because of it but, IMHO, getting stabbed is a little harsh.

See what some choral lessons could do? Bad singing is a leading cause of death in the Phillipines. LOL!

Come on! A stabbing in a bar in Manila is "news"??? Hell, when I was there, it was barely "news" when someone would throw a grenade into a bar, or go berserk and kill 23 strangers with a parang!
