Performance tip
For Black Celebration, map the verse order carefully because the lyric gives you relatively few repeated lines as landmarks. Use the original recording of Black Celebration to mark exactly where that change happens.
Should you sing it?
Black Celebration is worth singing if a consistent emotional point of view comes naturally to you. Expect more changing verse text than repeated hook material and room to shape the lines without cramming them. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
