Performance tip
Before performing I Wanna Be Sedated, make each return of the refrain grow instead of delivering every repetition at the same intensity. For I Wanna Be Sedated, that detail will matter more than adding extra volume.
Should you sing it?
I Wanna Be Sedated rewards a singer who knows the lyric well enough to focus on the emotional tension. Its structure offers a heavily repeated refrain, while the words have a dense lyric flow. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
