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.
Was never in much doubt
The question was how I could keep sane
Trying to find the way out
Peace of mind was hard to find
And I needed a place where I could hide
Somewhere I could call mine
Till it started happening all the time
Soon I was living with the fear everyday
Of what might happen at night
Crying of my mother
And I remember when
I swore that, that would be the
Last they’d see of me
And I never went home again
And now my wounds are not the same
I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he’d say
He looked me straight in the eyes
“You’re no son, you’re no son of mine
You’re no son, you’re no son of mine
You walked out, you left us behind
And you’re no son, you’re no son of mine”
I’ll never forget it
And as the time, it went by
I lived to regret it
But where should I go
Please tell me what should I do
You’re no son, you’re no son of mine
But I came here for help
Oh I was looking for you
I thought about him everyday
What would I do, if we passed on the street
Would I keep running away
Soon I’d have to face the facts
We’d have to sit down and talk it over
And that would mean going back
And now my wounds are not the same
I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he’d say
He looked me straight in the eyes
“You’re no son, you’re no son of mine
You’re no son, you’re no son of mine
You walked out, you left us behind
And you’re no son, you’re no son of mine”
I’ll never forget it
And as the time, it went by
I lived to regret it
But where should I go
Please tell me what should I do
But I came here for help
Oh I was looking for you
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.
