The word karaoke comes from the Japanese words ‘kara’ meaning ’empty’ and ‘oke’ meaning ‘orchestra’. It first became popular in English in 1979
Karaoke is a Japanese word that refers to a performance in which a person sings along with recorded music. It’s a popular form of entertainment at restaurants and clubs: amateur singers choose their favourite well-known song to sing and then perform it for the crowd.
The Cranberries – Ode to my family
Don’t turn away from me
‘Cause I spent half my life out there
You wouldn’t disagree
D’you see me, d’you see
Do you like me, do you like me standing there
D’you notice, d’you know
Do you see me, do you see me
Does anyone care?
And we didn’t give a damn
‘Cause we were raised
To see life as a fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she’d hold me
Did she hold me, when I was out there
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh he liked me, does anyone care?
It wasn’t my design
And people everywhere think
Something better than I am
But I miss you, I miss
‘Cause I liked it, ’cause I liked it
When I was out there
D’you know this, d’you know
You did not find me, you did not find
Does anyone care?
And we didn’t give a damn
‘Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she’d hold me
Did she hold me, when I was out there
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh he liked me, does anyone care?
Does anyone care?
Does anyone care?
Does anyone care?
Does anyone care?
Does anyone care?
Does anyone care?
Doo doo doo do, doo doo doo do
Doo doo doo do, doo doo doo do

5 Tips for Singing Karaoke
Here are some other things to keep in mind about how to have a successful karaoke night:
Warm up your voice before singing so you can really hit those high notes! Follow along with this quick video on vocal warm ups for singers.
Look confident. Start with a smile and with your feet planted shoulder width apart. Make no apologies for being on that stage!
Pick a song you really know so you’re not always having to look at the lyrics on the screen. Don’t forget you have an audience that wants you to sing to them!
Use good vocal technique. Breathe low, and keep your sound placed in your mask rather than shouting into the microphone.
Practice at home! YouTube has many excellent channels, such as KaraFun, that can help you practice.
