For many people, today is a drinking holiday -- whether you're celebrating St. Patrick's Day or reveling at SXSW. It's also a day to let loose those vocal cords, with these stellar drunk sing-along songs. Whether fun, maudlin or cheese-tastic, these ten songs are among the better specimens you can hear while inebriated. (Related content: The Ten Most Annoying Drunk Sing-Along Songs.)

10. Bonnie Tyler, "Total Eclipse of the Heart"
What is it about over dramatic songs that makes them a magnet for inebriated singing? Perhaps a drunk's inflated sense of talent. This tune in particular will challenge even the most talented warbler.

9. Guns 'n Roses, "Sweet Child O' Mine"
We can argue about genre semantics, but in the hard-rock-verging-on-hair-metal canon, this song has permanent cred and coolness, thanks to Slash's guitar solo and Axl's pristine, cat-in-heat yowl.
