i’d say in karaoke the bar for a good performance in most places is staying roughly on beat and sing notes that are closer to notes in the right key than not, no need to know the actual words

I sing karaoke fairly often. I sing the nonsense lyrics and no one seems to notice, especially if I sing 90s rock.

Once upon a time there were some funny youtube videos about “misheard lyrics”. Highly recommended.

There is or was an entire website called kissthisguy.com all about misheard lyrics.

Yeah same. Many artists themselves like to change around their lyrics in live performance so I’ve stopped giving a shit. Finding out it’s wrong I’m like “oh cool” but I’ll still sometimes intentionally sing it wrong or differently.
