What are your favourite sing-a-long songs?
Which do you find infectious and compelled to join in?
There are obviously very many more of your own personal favourites, so please add them.

Skylark. - apologies to you. I deleted the original thread after making an error. 
I chose several, including YMCA. I always get up and dance to it, too
When you're singing Delilah......
After "Why, Why, Why, Delilah".....do you always sing along with the trumpets - "diddle-iddle-iddle-iddle-ee"?

Yes.
The family tradition is a sing along to Sweet Caroline by Neil Dizmond.

Yes.
And strangely I find myself swaying my head and shoulders from side to side.....with an upward face (often with eyes closed) whilst singing (no yelling) Delilah......strange I know, but true.....I just did it.......
I love moon river because it reminds me of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.

So do I.
One day like this by elbow
The popularity of Delilah does not surprise me.
In a group situation most people find it irresistable.
What about
The Timewarp
Summer Lovin' - John Travolta and Olivia Newton John
That one that goes, hey baby, oh ah... I want to know... will you be my girl
The way to Amarillo (I hate that song, incidentally)
Proclaimers - I would walk 100 miles [or whatever it's called]
Mull of Kintyre - Wings
We are the champions - Queen (I hate that band)
Rocking All Over the World - Status Quo
All you need is Love - The Beatles
Come On Eileen - Dexy's
B52s - Love Shack (I hate that song also)
For top cheesy coatings
True - Spandau Ballet
Red Red Wine - UB40
BTW, I voted for YMCA for no obvious reason, it's just a good party record when I feel like acting a bit camp. I don't know "The Hippopotamus Song"
Carnelian - thanks for the list.
They are certainly sing-a-long type songs.
