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.

 

Gerry Rafferty – Baker Street

 

Winding your way down on Baker StreetLight in your head and dead on your feetWell, another crazy dayYou’ll drink the night awayAnd forget about ev’rything
This city desert makes you feel so coldIt’s got so many people, but it’s got no soulAnd it’s taken you so longTo find out you were wrongWhen you thought it held everything
You used to think that it was so easyYou used to say that it was so easyBut you’re tryin’, you’re tryin’ now
Another year and then you’d be happyJust one more year and then you’d be happyBut you’re cryin’, you’re cryin’ now
Way down the street there’s a light in his placeHe opens the door, he’s got that look on his faceAnd he asks you where you’ve beenYou tell him who you’ve seenAnd you talk about anything
He’s got this dream about buying some landHe’s gonna give up the booze and the one-night standsAnd then he’ll settle downIn some quiet little townAnd forget about ev’rything
But you know he’ll always keep movin’You know he’s never gonna stop movin’‘Cause he’s rollin’, he’s the rolling stoneWhen you wake up, it’s a new mornin’The sun is shinin’, it’s a new mornin’You’re goin’, you’re goin’ home

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.
