    Unpretentious, authentic, friendly, karaoke!!!

    Winnie's was such an amazing find. Super mellow vibe, eclectic interior that looks like you are singing in someone's basement, good drink prices.

    Seriously, I am not a karaoke-er. But my boyfriend loves it and I have to humor him occasionally. We came here with friends and had the best time.

    The place is super strange in a time-forgot-me way. It's on a street off canal and you'd never find it if you weren't looking. The regulars will clap for you and are super friendly. It's like the Chinese Cheers.

    And the 80's videos that go with the songs are A-Mazing.

    Growing up in Chinatown, this bar has been around since forever. As most of the reviews mentioned, its a dive bar. I've had a few memories here when I was younger. Haven't been back in God knows how long, my friend and I decided to go grab a drink for old time sake.

    The decor as I remember is the same, haven't changed at all. The live/open karaoke is still popular. Now onto the drinks, the bartenders were friendly, but my friend did not like any of the drinks they made. I stuck to wine.

    It's one of those places that given it's location and that it's been around for so long it's worth checking out at least once. The decor ...

    Great little bar. It's somewhat divey, though not especially so for its surroundings given that it's in Chinatown, and it's actually quite spacious by Chinatown standards.

    I had a Tsingtao and a lychee cocktail, which were good but a bit pricey for a dive bar ($6.50 and $10, respectively). I also sang a song for $1.

    So Winnie's is one of the strangest places ever. It's on a random block in China Town by the police precinct.

    Inside it's pretty small, smells vaguely of cat pee and has red booths and christmas lights hanging up. The main attraction is the ancient karaoke system (VHS!). While I was there, three incredibly drunk/barely conscious people were slurring the words to Journey.

    That just about sums it up...but I'd be back because I did have fun singing here on one of their livelier nights :)

    What.Just.Happened?!?!?!
    This place is not for the faint-hearted.  It's totally random and the experience will absolutely be defined by the crowd.  
    First, be forewarned that it's CASH ONLY.  No ATM and the closest ATM is a few streets away... so come with your bills!
    Songs are $1 each... and it will remind you of performing in someone's garage or basement.  It's just kinda stuffed in the back while the lyrics and the awkward 80's style video plays on a projector-screen.
    Beers are $6-6.50... so affordable for NYC.
    We rolled in around 1030-11 on a friday and it was only about half-full.  People came and went... we kept drinking... had a few funny people around us that made it more entertaining... and left somewhere around 1am.  
    I'm still not sure what that was about... definitely good for a random night.

    The initial charm of Winnie's is its diveyness (#1). The only kind that exists in a place like Chinatown, albeit slightly different from the usual dive bar lovin that many folks typically have for places like this. Disgusting bathrooms. Shoddy seating from the bar to the booths. Gritty to the bone and with a karaoke system to boot, the only times I've ever enjoyed myself was purely because of good company.

    So bring a group of friends and embrace Winnie's for everything it showcases: a dated, VCD/DVD karaoke system / cash only drinks / ridiculously cold + rushed service. They'll often have games that are playing, sometimes big ones on stupidly small TVs and one large one and in essence Winnie's becomes a decent backup plan to the around the corner Whiskey Tavern (<a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/whiskey-tavern-new-york">http://www.yelp.com/biz/…</a>).

    The drinks are a little pricey for a dive at almost $10 a standard drink. I wouldn't be caught here drinking alone or listening to the really crappy karaoke from drunk tourists. Even on the rainy days, I'd rather be slurping noodles somewhere than getting the evil eye from the bartender while I nurse my drink.

    ________
    (#1) Last I checked, this is a real word.

    We went here at 5 pm today and were charged 7$ for a glass of wine, and then left to meet for dinner down the street. At 8 pm we came back after a change of bartender and she told us it was 5.50$ for the same glass. The woman who charged us 7 was still there yelled at us saying we didnt tip her enough. I felt awful for this experience made me never want to go back.

    This was a cool little place for karaoke or just to kick it with friends. Was just walking around chinatown with some friends and decided to sit down and watch the game somewhere. Could use a nicer TV inside. I was also wondering where did all these hipsters come from?? This was definitely a cool spot and cool bartender as well. Definitely want to know more about any specials they could have.

    I can't decide if this is a legitimately weird bar or if I just happened to come in on a weird day.

    Me and a bunch of friends stopped in for a drink or two after sampling some of Chinatown's finest dumplings. My first impression of Winnie's wasn't the best. I actually noticed just two things: the table filled with obliterated college kids beat-boxing and rapping (at 4:30 in the afternoon) and the many, many plastic buckets of... something stacked three buckets high in one corner. Ooookay. We grabbed a table of our own and I noticed something else: Winnie's charges $6 for a Budweiser in a bottle?!

    Anyway.

    Drink prices are pretty arbitrary and change sometimes doesn't arrive. The laser disc karaoke player is quaint and hilarious and prone to skipping. Drunk girls will intrude on your rendition of "Don't Stop Believing" without any sort of by-your-leave. The bar staff might also warn you that they're closing at 8:00, but then they won't. No explanation will be offered for any of these things. If you ask for "punch" you will get a glass of something orange and alcoholic. It may contain cheap vodka or children's tears; you will never know.

    Winnie's is perfect for a little no pressure karaoke and beer. Or just beer. Sweet little spot in china town! Nice staff, too.

    A grungy karaoke bar in the midst of Chinatown by the precinct. I honestly don't know why I was here. I wouldn't come here by my desires but my out of town friends happened to be here for (god knows why). The drinks are cheap and the karaoke is loud and bad.

    This is definitely a dive bar and in a scary part of town for the middle of the night. I'm not a fan!

    Restaurant during the day, awesome dive bar at night. Drinks are pretty awesome, $9.50 for a jack and coke, and $8 for a margarita. Oh, take note, their drinks are the REAL drinks. Their margarita is the real deal. Lime juice and triple sac, but you can ask them to add orange juice if you find it too strong.

    Although seating is limited, since there's only a few booths and some stools at the bar, it's fine. They have karaoke too and once you've had a good amount of alcohol, it's more than difficult to fight the urge of grabbing that microphone and singing your heart out.

    Great drinks and fun karaoke could never go wrong!

    The epitome of Chinatown karaoke. I've been lucky to be among a great crowd every time I've been, the kind that sings along. So much fun.

    Everyone keeps saying it's not a restaurant, which is true, but the first time I was there, I did have really good dumplings that the bartender served to us. I think it's an "in the know" kind of thing that they don't always have, and that was the only food item there was. My friend, who had been there a few times before, ordered. Can't wait to try the fruit punch I keep reading about, never noticed it on the menu before.

    Came here a few years ago on a Saturday, it was packed! Then again 3 years ago on a Saturday afternoon, it was dead. And finally I stopped in here last Saturday early evening to get away from the cold and grab a drink. Some of the bar stools were taken by what it seemed to be a few regulars. The bartender sashayed her way over and I gave her my order. I was there for about an hour and all the while the regulars and bartender were drinking and talking smack in Chinese. It was hilarious. I think this is the one and only Chinese dive bar you'll ever find.

    Deep in the darkest fold of the outer bowel of Chinatown there is an amazing dive with a $9 "fruit punch" (that will knock you FLAT on your ass), fake stained glass lamp shades and amazing people watching that will entertain you for hours. On a Saturday night, Winnie's seemed unreasonably dead considering the huge booths and friendly service, but then again this bar is a bit off the beaten trail. They actually don't have food but everybody inside recommended an amazing place nearby, so you can be sure this place is usually full of local flavor. I also didn't *quite* understand the karaoke rules (2 drink minimum and you had to be there before 8:00 pm or something?????) but next time I come I'll definitely partake.

    I know where I am having my next 25 birthdays.

    Winnie's is a really fun dive bar. Was there with 4 friends on a Thursday and it got busy around 9pm. On weekends, it's packed.

    $1 karaoke songs (limited selection). Drinks are good but they are overpriced for the venue... $9-11 mixed drinks.

    Be advised:

    1) Winnie is a real person and she's kind of mean.

    2) The word "restaurant" should not be attached to this establishment. There is no food. And if there were, you would not want to eat it. However, they encourage you to have nearby food delivered.

    Behave yourself (especially if Winnie's watching) and you'll have fun!

    UPDATE:
    Went a second time and Winnie was so much nicer! I never mentioned this Yelp review.

    Be warned: This place is NOT a restaurant. It's called "Bar & Restaurant" but alas, there's no food to be had.

    I had been here before a few years ago, so I suggested it to a few friends and we went here last week. The bartender was REALLY nice. They encouraged us to order food and have it delivered to the bar, which we did (btw: much to my friend's dispair, you cannot get Crab Rangoon anywhere in Chinatown, but that has nothing to do with Winnie's).

    Karoke is $1 per son, which is great for the people who don't like to sing a whole lot. The drinks are kind of really pricey for a dive bar. My Manhattan cost $11, a bit over-priced for a dive bar. I somehow ended up spending about $55. How did that happen?!?!

    You should definetly give Winnie's a shot, just watch what you order at the bar because this can get expensive!

    This is not the place to go for a big group on a Friday night. Around 10pm on a Friday night, all seats were packed and two of the party were lucky to squeeze in at the bar (for a $6 Bud Light - wth?) and the rest of us hovered rather uncomfortably around.

    The owners, who were eating in a booth, kindly relinquished their table, but we were quickly ousted by some others who were promised the table by the bartender. There is a waiting list. For tables. Sigh.

    Karaoke is $1 a song, and the stage is small and can accommodate about 10 people standing around and watching. The crowd seemed nice enough to the singers, cheering on and singing along, but this is not the place to stand around and hover.

    I don't know WHY we were given the stink eye by some people who were lucky enough to have seats, but we were. Maybe we were taking up valuable  oxygen? I don't know, but I didn't like the vibe.

    I can see the place being okay on a slower night, but I won't go back on Fridays.

    A bunch of friends and I were looking for a place to grab a nice drink on a Friday night and among the bunch of us somehow we wound up going to Winnie's.  The bar has a traditional dive look to it.  It's dark, old wood everywhere with booths to the  right and the bar to the left.  Towards the back is the area for Karaoke ($1 per song) complete with a stage.

    This place was definitely a popular spot.  A mostly younger to middle aged crowd circulated in and out constantly.  There were about four people working the bar and one gent floating around to make sure everyone was okay.  It felt like a place with its very own set of regulars.  The atmosphere felt friendly...so long as you were known to the owners.

    We tried to get a table, were offered one and then it was quickly taken away when they realized we wouldn't all fit (honestly, I wouldn't have minded if we let the ladies sit and the guys just floated).  Two of our party wound up getting seats at the bar and the rest of us had no choice but to float.  And that's when all the "looks" began.  I wasn't the first to notice it.  One of my friends noticed a lot of the people inside staring at us (even though a couple of our friends got drinks already at the bar).  I wound up going to wait outside as it got uncomfortable very quickly.

    Later I would learn that my friends had gotten Bud Lights for $6.  Really?  I mean, if it was some midtown bar I could see that, but the price surprised me for a place in Chinatown and that looked a bit divey.  The cocktails however seemed very reasonably priced, none over $10 so kudos for that.

    Based on other reviews here and the feeling I got from watching folks interact in the bar, there's definitely some quality here and appeal for regulars, I just wasn't feeling it.

    The only reason this isn't a five star review is because I have only been there once and it was only for a single drink. I went in with my wife and a friend early on a Sunday evening. The atmosphere is PERFECT for a dive bar. Large booths upholstered with red pleather lit by hanging lamps over each booth, wood-panelled walls, computer-printed signs stating their two-drink minimum during karaoke hours and not much more adorn the walls. It's obvious that the bar caters to Karaoke but my time there (before Karaoke started that evening) was wonderfully quiet and peaceful. We were able to carry on a conversation without raising our voices out of necessity. There was a single, fairly large TV showing sports (Knicks playoff game) at the corner of the bar.

    Don't go here if you want top shelf liquor or draft beer (or even bottled craft beer). But if, like me, you appreciate cheap drinks, a place to talk and a dark-ish atmosphere, this place is great (at least when there isn't Karaoke).

    I'll be back for sure!

    Fun, divey bar. The drinks are a little expensive, but they make up for it with an interesting set of house specials: the purple mofo was kinda meh; the hawaiian punch was good, pink, and strong; the kryptonite was trouble in a glass.  

    Throughout the evening there were people singing karaoke (terribly) with the sort of zeal that comes when you've had one too many.  

    The place also has a 'family-run' feel to it.

    I enjoying my time at Winnie's way too much for my own good.  If you think about it, it is a pretty sweet deal for only $1 per song. Especially if you have a large group of people getting together, you can kind of take over.  There was a young man and woman working there at the time and they were really nice and willing to help with anything we needed.  

    My drink was very good, I had the $9 Hawaiian Punch.  I saw the bartender put at least ten kinds of alcohol in it before handing it over, and the drink was very large and lasted me a good hour or more.  You can buy food and bring it in the bar, or get delivery.  But, in Chinatown is it more fun to go out to eat before or afterwards, like we did.

    Some people complained about the song selection, but I love the 80's so it was not a problem for me to find plenty of stuff to sing.  There are no effects or delay on the microphones so you either sing well or you don't here.  You can also create your own effects by cupping the mic in different ways to make your voice smoother.

    I came here for a friend's 30th birthday party after starting at another bar before. It was about 11:30 and feeling a little sleepy, I told everyone I was going to go home. Then I was convinced to just stop by "for a second" at Winnie's.

    Cut to 4:30am when I look at my phone and say, "Um, it's 4:30 now...where did the time go?"

    I imagine a lot of people have stories like that for this place. It's really small but not in a crowded way and the songs are $1. They only take cash which is a huge pet peeve of mine, otherwise this would have been a 4.5 star experience. We had pitchers of this "Hawaiian punch" stuff and then I learned they were $42 a pitcher! Which seems very steep especially if you only take cash. Granted, I'm pretty sure they're pure alcohol so I guess that's a steal.

    I would definitely go back here if I ever again find myself drinking in Soho and not wanting the night to end.

    P.S.
    My friend only knew about this place from dorming at Lafayette at NYU and coming here. I also lived in that dorm but never came here. All I can say is, clearly not enough NYU kids know about this because otherwise it would have been a LOT more crowded on a Saturday night.

    I dunno, maybe you kids should check it out...

    This is a great place to come for rounds of tequila with a group of friends and SING. The drinks are cheap (and the house red is not bad). Songs cost $1/song.

    This place is usually busy (but not crazily so) on the weekends, and almost empty on the weekdays. If you have a large enough group it can be fun even when the place is otherwise empty. We came here as a group of 4 people, the place was mostly empty, but we had a blast.

    The only slightly negative thing is that they do not have any beer on tap, only bottled. Also, the furniture is a little beat up, if you care about such things.

    The good thing about this place is that it costs only $1 to sing a karaoke song, however the karaoke book is definitely lacking.First off I've never seen a karaoke book that doesn't list the songs by the artist, and then doesn't even list who the artist is next to the majority of songs. My friends and I would think of a song we'd like to sing and 90% of the time the song wasn't in the book(and they weren't obscure songs, they were popular songs..yet the book has a song by Jessica Simpson..)  

    The other thing about this place is that the bartenders take peoples drinks off the table without asking and when the glass isn't even empty. After they did this to my friend, he went to the bar to complain and they gave him a new half a glass (since he had drank most of it) but they were constantly doing that.

    The crowd was good, but there are definitely better karaoke places in the city.

    So Winnie's seems to be the place where people get blacked out drunk....and hten sing.

    I've never been one for karaoke or karaoke  in front of a whole freaking bar but somehow this place brought it out in me.

    Great energy and crowd, a good place to sing your lungs out at after you'd had wayyyyy too many drinks.

    I was so excited about this place.  It was a lot of fun, I had a great party (we took the place out for my bday).  Unfortunately, the bartender  (a great big Thai girl) pushed my friend to get her out of her way, then screamed at me in a nasty way when I consoled my friend.  When my boyfriend said something to the bouncer, the bartender grabbed a box and threw it into my side.  I will add we are all graduate students and attorneys, and are not used to such rough and tumble.  It was a little scary, the place looks like it has gang relations.  My friend, who is an attorney for the city, had to step in to contain the staff.  I have never seen anything like it.

    All karaoke songs are ranked in order of how much you bribed the manager to get your songs first.  I really hate giving a bad review because I was so hopeful about this place.  We took it out for a party and were actually physically assaulted by the staff, so I think that speaks for itself, especially as it was my birthday...
    The violent bartender and staff clearly live by their own laws.

    How exactly can a dive bar be a dive bar and have nearly 40 reviews on Yelp? This place is no longer a dive bar. Its a bar that everyone has heard about from a friend. They all go because they want to be the cool people going to a cool "dive" bar that only cool people go to. I found the crowd full of themselves at best. The staff was uninterested in being helpful. I went on a Saturday night for karaoke, which was a free-for-all zoo.

    Cheap drinks are no attraction for me, I can get cheap drinks at the local liquor store. Dive bars are cool. Dive bars packed with loud drunk non-local poser b%*&$es... not so cool.

    I am almost afraid of writing about Winnie's, because I really don't want people knowing about it. I'm not saying that this is my go-to bar. At least not yet it is. But soon it will be.

    This is a dive bar, in every sense of the word. You got booths on the right when you walk in, and you have the bar on your left. And no dive bar would be complete without one of those video game thingys right at the bar.

    We came here on Christmas day, so it was a rather festive place. They were serving free food to customers all day. And because it was Christmas, most of the regulars came in with their families. Yes, there were actually little kiddies running around the bar.  

    How did we know that they were serving free food? Because Winnie invited us to eat. Yes, we actually got to meet Winnie herself (hi Funda) and she could not have been more sweet and down to earth. Everybody loves her and it was easy to see why. She's like the mother you wish you had, and who also happens to own a bar.

    We also got to talk to the bartender for awhile, who told us that she's been there for 25 out of the 27 years the bar has been open. Man can she talk but she's a riot.

    And oh yes, there is karaoke. Sure it's $1 per song and sure there are no songs after 1995 but who cares? Just get your inner Huey Lewis going and you'll want a new drug.

    So if you are reading this, come on down and enjoy. Just don't let too many people know about Winnie's, and be sure to pet Princess on the way in.

    PS according to Winnie, who actually interrupted her phone call to talk to me, they are open every day of the year, 365 days a year. God I love her!

    Sunday afternoon, around 5pm:

    Drunk Chinese landlord in the corner, shouting into his cell phone about how his building doesn't need any improvements.

    Booth of high school kids ordering cocktails-by the pitcher.

    And the three of us, asking the bartender if there were any shots we could order that would not be served on fire. This seemed to be a difficult question for her.

    Overall, a positive experience.

    This is a fun hidden dive bar with low key open room karaoke. On off days is mostly filled with regulars with occasional couple of tourists. If your social and enjoy group sing, this can be a blast.

    On the downside, the drinks is on the expensive side for chinatown. The bartenders can be ridged at times.

    I randomly ended up in here last Friday while drunkenly searching for my special male friend whom I'd gotten separated from earlier in the night. Maybe it's a good thing we kept missing each other as I would've never gone in this place otherwise. Thanks to the wonder that is my cell phone,  we were eventually reunited.

    Pretty dive-y (thought not in a bad way), but I vaguely recall having a drink or two, intoxicated Brits singing karaoke, meeting Winnie herself, and somehow coming out of there having spent zero dollars.  That's probably more attributable to the Chinatown VIP I was with than the place itself, but thumbs up anyway!  It's a good option if you're in the hood and want something low-key as there aren't many other bars in the vicinity.

    The scene of the crime and the start of some major debauchery that my wallet is still reeling from. The 9 shot menu consisted of some pretty interesting names, that turned out to be some horrible drinks. Sambuca and tobasco sauce, who thinks of that? Harsh, very harsh.

    However, we had twenty minutes to kill before group dinner started. The answer, it turns out, is 9. The question, of course, being how many shots can be drunk in that time. At $6 a shot with two on the house, not a bad deal at all.

    Some sloppy pouring and not the greatest of ambiances, but what can be expected out of a Chinese dive bar?

    3.5 stars really...

    What does one do when they have twenty minutes to kill before a group dinner?  They go to the diviest bar in the neighborhood and order the whole shots menu...

    Although having heard many stories about Winnie's, I had never actually been there before.  D and I were killing time before dinner and decided to go grab a drink.  How does ONE drink turn into NINE shots?  I'm not entirely sure, but leave it up to two Yelpers that had only known each other about 4 days to challenge each other to a shot shoot-off!

    So, the conversation goes like this:

    D: Whaddya want to drink?
    N: I dunno.  Whatcha getting?
    D: I dunno.
    N: Shot?
    D: You want to?
    N: I'm down if you're down...
    D: Okay.

    Shot ordered.  Then another.  And then another.

    N: Hey D, there's only nine shots on the shot menu.  It'd be funny to do all nine...
    D: You want to?
    N: Like I said, I'm down if you're down!
    D: Okay, let's go!

    Six shots are ordered and lined up.  Six are pounded down.  I win, of course - not that it was a competition or anything...  Hhahaha

    At this point, we're late for dinner, so we scampered outta there.  It was an unexpected start to an also unexpected looooong Monday night of drinking.

    The bar bought back two shots, which was cool.  Minus two stars for having children in a bar!  Minus another for sloppy bartending skills.  Add half a star for the buyback.  And another star for the company of my new drinking buddy.  So, I guess the 3.5 stars are more for the company and the drinking experience and not the place, but then again, this isn't the first time I've rated more on that than the actual establishment...

    I probably won't be back, but it was a fun 30 minutes!  hahahahhaha

    P.S.
    You really don't want to know what the shot count was at the end of the night...

    Where do I get started? I love karaoke and being new to New York, I'm always on the lookout for cool karaoke bars. After reviewing what yelpers had to say about Winnie's, I had to check it out for myself. It was surely your local Chinatown dive bar, but the crowd was cool and seemed fun until...two Chinese men got into a fight.

    I was sitting at the head of the bar and I looked to my right and there was this drunk Chinese guy slurring his every word and trying to touch me. I grabbed his hand and handed it back to him. It seemed as though he got the message, because he moved. I stood up to tell my boyfriend to come join me, and as I sat back in my seat I got a massive double fist punch to the face.

    As I turned around to show whoever what I've learned from watching UFC fights. I realized two guys were already kicking the crap out of each other. I jumped out of the way and as I watched it was like being in a movie. Only if someone got up to sing, "Everybody was Kung FU fighting!"  it would have gone down as another classic moment in history.

    To break it up, this huge Chinese guy that could have co-starred in the movie, "Pirates of the Caribbean" as one of the monsters takes the guy that was harassing me (and who probably started the fight) and suplexed him hard. I was like, "Damn you got knocked the f*** out man."

    I guess this guy watches UFC too.

    After it all calmed down, I finally got to sing my song and the KJ  was really nice (her name was Allie). After telling her what happened she got me a free drink.  My boyfriend joined me, and while watching me sing, the guy that didn't get kicked out from the fight slammed a glass onto the counter shattering the glass and getting alcohol all over the place, including on my boyfriend. Then he was removed.

    Once all the angry, fighting men were gone, the party continued and I got to sing a couple more songs and danced with a couple of fun girlies.  Overall I had fun.  Will I go back? Probably not. Should you go? Sure, if you're into what I just shared with you. Go ahead knock yourself out (or I'm sure someone at the bar would be happy to do it for you)...:o)

    Damn, Winnie's has lost its magic touch.  The unironic geeky hipster chick who was not cute in her geeky red schoolgirl polyester outfit, short haircut and keds?   Yup, Winnie's has jumped the shark and is no longer a cool place to hang out with a random variety of drunkards looking to get their karoake on.  

    Sometimes a girl needs a crowd on her karaoke excursion, but I'll stick with rent-a-room from now on.

    BTW, I'll pay good cash for a bottle of champers, but not $70 for Cook's Extra Brut (retail? $6.00).  We had one V&S and split the fuck right out of there.

    Passionate, Daring, Colorful--that's how the Chinese astrology chart on the wall at Winnie's described me.

    It was the first thing I noticed when I walked in; because the compliments came from astrology and not from some drunk douchebag sloshing liquor down his throat at the bar, they meant a lot more.

    That's not all that went right on my night at Winnie's, though. Although it's a tiny place hidden in the heart of Chinatown, people here know how to have fun. Karaoke until 4a.m.? No drink minimum? Why not?

    If you get to Winnie's late, expect everyone to be drunk, loud, and having a blast. If singing is not your thing, watching people make fools of themselves will be. Enjoy!

    "How many times did they play 'LOVE SHACK'?"  

    Don't worry bout it man!  After a couple beers and some of those Jolly Rancher drinks, you won't realize you're singing that song for the...uh, 12th time!  Not interesting in singing, then let the guy with the eyepatch out sing you infront of your gf as you steadily walk backwards in embarrassment.  Its all good...screw the karaoke and try to play some chinese poker is it?  Pretty simple and easy to get fo-shiZZZZZZzzzzllled!

    So play your ($1) song, grab the mic, and let the world see the Kelly Clarkson in you.  "You go girl!"  *raising the roof*
