I generally disagree with the crowd here that punk and metal songs generally make for good karaoke. Unless you have a group of people that also know the chorus, it's always always always too shouty imo.
Good songs for karaoke are either bangers, or pop songs that focus on a single singer with only abit of autotunage in the OR, but normally something within your range or that you can transpose into your range with maybe one or two runs outside of it. Either that or ones that everybody knows.
My personal go-tos are Bette Davis Eyes, Gloria, Hurts So Good, Country Roads, Hurt (Johnny Cash version), Lookin' Out My Back Door, Train in Vain, Somebody That I Used to Know, One Bourbon One Scotch One Beer (if nobody else is singing cause it's a long one)
