Have you ever wonder why this little music machine attracts so many people in the entertainment world? Have you ever tried singing a good song using a karaoke? Why not? Because you don't have a good voice?

Neither do 95% of the people who do it regularly.

Today, the utilization of karaoke is rapidly gaining a fair share in the market. In most entertainment places like bars, merry-making will not be complete without these remarkable music machine known as the karaoke.

However, many people are wondering what this karaoke is all about. How come that this new technology had quickly gained the people’s attention in a short span of time.

Moreover, there are many people wondering why, is spite of the close interaction between and among karaoke users, still, they do not know why are they so addicted to it.

Indeed, karaoke are known for its entertainment purpose. So one should keep in mind that the only best way to enjoy karaoke is to be entertained to the fullest.

My family loves karaoke, here in our country it is known as 'videoke'. we do it every time we feel bored or an occasion. even at birthday parties, we love it. and we even go to ktv bars and spend the night there, singing our favorite songs. my mom loves to sing 'skyline pigeon' and 'torn by natalie imbruglia'. i love singing 'don't speak' by no doubt. even I'm out of tune, i just sing, it's one way to forget all my problems and stress.

You? What song do you like to sing?

definition of karaoke:Karaoke is singing with a pre-existing song, where you replace the original lead singer. Karaoke songs are reproduced to sound like the original song, but without lead vocals. The lyrics of the song are presented to the singer via a video screen, highlighting the words to be sung, so that the singer can follow along without memorizing the song lyrics. Karaoke songs are rarely produced by the original artist or recording studio. They are usually recreated by independent karaoke manufacturers. Most of these manufacturers use professional musicians and singers to produce the likeness of the original song. Karaoke songs may include some vocals. If the original song contains any background vocals (i.e. chorus, harmonies, back-up singers, etc), then the karaoke versions will usually contain them as well.

I did notice that most people that sing kareoke cannot sing whatsoever but they are having fun doing it so I guess that's what counts.
I have tried it before, after a couple of drinks and it was not very cute. My favorite songs to sing karaoke are 70s and 80s songs with a lot of beat in them.


myLot reputation of 97/100. queenie_sum (2434)  5 years ago

yeah, i agree with you. some really don't know how to sing like me for example. it's just fun when you do it.

Karaoke is a lot of fun. We hired one for my younger brothers 21st and it was a blast. Everyone joined in regardless of whether you could sing or not. After a few drinks, it gets a bit too much!


myLot reputation of 97/100. queenie_sum (2434)  5 years ago

it was really a lot of fun. yeah whether you know how to sing or not. you still have the confidence, just do it.

myLot reputation of 97/100. queenie_sum (2434)  5 years ago

I think that most people only like to get on the karaoke when the are drunk and in a pub because they have had a drink also most people only do it because there is a cash prize at our local pub and a karaoke on a Thursday night, thanks

no, asian do it for fun and to take away your stress instead of drinking or going to bars, just sing out loud and express yourself.

I bought a karaoke machine for last Christmas. I thought it might liven up our Christmas celebrations at night after we have had a couple of drinks. I also boought lots of karaoke dvds and my crandchildren used put a dvd on the machine and then pick one of us to sing it. It was great fun as they would choose a sond that was most unsuitable for us to sing. It gave us all a great laugh and now we have lots of family get togethers just so that we can sing our karaoke. I think the karaoke machines are a great invention.


myLot reputation of 97/100. queenie_sum (2434)  5 years ago

wow! good for you my friend. my mom bought too last christmas and we had a blast, it was so much fun using it.

My family and friends and I all love karaokes! We actually have one of this so called 'karaoke machines' in our house in the province. And everytime I would go home, singing won't be far in my IT's the whole time. My 'masterpieces' are 'I will survive' and the Aegis songs cause we all love to do 'birit' songs. haha! Not that we're so good at it but even our neighbors would be so entertained that they would come and join me. It was lots of fun and it's not the same if you go on a fiesta without KTV's. What's so busting with Karaoke's are the Scores! Some peeps who couldn't even sing well would still get a perfect score while those who really CAN sing would get a lower score. Funny how those karaokes can detect the voices of those who frequently sing their songs in that place. =)

aegis is very popular. pinoy loves to sing it with actions. lol!

We have Karaoke about once a month here in town. We only have a bar here in our little town but it is packed when Karaoke is in town. The guy that does it dresses up like Elvis and when he sings Teddy Bear he passes some out. Everyone loves it. I sing but not alone usually my girls or friends sing with me. My youngest daughter loves to get up there and belt out songs. She actually does really well. Elvis and his wife love her so she gets to sing whatever she puts in. I find it very good entertainment and a way for everyone to let their hair down. I think the songs get better as the night goes on. Could be that the drinks are flowing more as well*L* I really do have fun and I wish more people could take part it in. Heck if I can sing anyone can!!

wow so cute you have there. yeah you got the attitude friend.
