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.
My name is Luka I live on the second floor I live upstairs from you Yes, I think you’ve seen me before
If you hear something late at night Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight Just don’t ask me what it was Just don’t ask me what it was Just don’t ask me what it was
I think it’s ’cause I’m clumsy I try not to talk too loud Maybe it’s because I’m crazy I try not to act too proud
They only hit until you cry After that you don’t ask why You just don’t argue anymore Just don’t argue anymore Just don’t argue anymore
Yes, I think I’m okay I walked into the door again Well, if you ask that’s what I’ll say It’s not your business anyway I guess I’d like to be alone With nothing broken, nothing thrown Just don’t ask me how I am Just don’t ask me how I am Just don’t ask me how I am

Thank you! I certainly have a lot of memories connected with that song And one of the memories I remember is that Back then in 1987 right after the songhit come out and it was a hit at radio But it hadn’t occured to me yet to change the order of the setlist So I was still singing at fourth in the setlist And when I played in Minneapolis, Minnesota We had a guest who wanted to come to the show and that was Prince And he was a big fan of the song and he written me a letter And he wanted to come to the show, hm, and I said: “Oh, that would be great” So, but what I didn’t realized was that Prince was not just going to come and sit in the audience Prince wanted to come by himself, he wanted to come into the venue after everyone was sitted And so, hm, Prince came in with his bodyguards after everyone was sitted And he sat on the flight cases on the side of the stage and I played “Luka” fourth on the set He got up apparently and danced and then, after the song, left the building with his bodyguards And I never saw him I think Mike, actually, Mike Visceglia on bass was with me at that time I think he saw Prince dancing on the corner so that’s when I found out that he was even at the show So… Ahn… This next song is the last song that I finished for this album I was desperately trying to finish those last few “lyrics” Because they needed the vocals, they needed to finish the vocals
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.
