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.
Sheryl Crow – There goes the neighborhood
Let’s get down
Let’s turn the radio on
This is the meltdown
Take a picture
The drag queens and the freaks
Are all out on the town
Nursing a swollen head
Don’t like the scene anyhow
I dropped acid on a Saturday night
Just to see what the fuss was about
Well there goes the neighborhood
Is standing in her panties in the shower
She plays the guitar in the bathroom
While the police dust her mother’s plastic flowers
And Schoolboy John’s in jail
Making a killing through the U.S. mail
Don’t like the scene anyhow
I dropped acid on a Saturday night
Just to see what the fuss was about
Well there goes the neighborhood
Of the book about a girl who meets a junkie.
The messenger gets shot down
Just for carrying the message to a flunkie.
We can’t be certain who the villans are ’cause everyone’s so pretty
But the after-party’s sure to be a wing-ding as it moves into your
City
Don’t like the scene anyhow
I dropped acid on a Saturday night
Just to see what the fuss was about
Well there goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
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.
