I came from a family who loves to sing. Though, not every one of us is as skilled as the others, but that doesn’t stop us from doing what we love, which is singing. Coming from a close knit family, we always have gatherings. We love reunions; always present on birthdays, weddings, baptismal, thanksgiving, holidays or merely weekend get togethers of drinking and dining out. And in those parties, we always find ways to include karaoke singing.
We take turns in having these parties at different abodes every time. And the funny thing is, every one of us has its own karaoke machines! Not letting ourselves to be outdone, I may say. That is how our family is, obsessed in karaoke’s. So obsessed that some of my cousins took crash courses in singing. Singing at karaoke bars or simply inside our home is a pleasurable way of eliminating stress and pressure from work or by our daily lives. We can temporarily set aside our problems by engaging ourselves in this hobby. Some of us use this as an escape from the burden life is giving us. A therapy and cure to anxiety to some.
Also, singing karaoke is a good vocal exercise to aspiring singers. A practicing ground for people who wanted to get discovered. And to some, to showcase a hidden talent that wants to get out. Whatever the reason we have why we enjoy singing karaoke, a common denominator exists to all of us; we love music and we love to sing.
So many years of experience in singing karaoke had taught me lots of techniques that I want to share to my fellow karaoke singing enthusiasts.
First, select a song that you know. Don’t pick songs just because it sounds good to you. You can have songs that you already knew and within your voice range. You can try other songs but be sure that you are familiar with the tune and you have practiced singing it before singing it in front of others.
Second tip is being familiar with your voice strength. That is why choosing the songs that you might sing is very important.
Third is to feel relax and comfortable with yourself while singing in front of everyone. Others hesitates singing in karaoke bars in front of strangers. Don’t let this hinders you from enjoying the night. Remember, almost everyone is drinking that is why you have bigger chances that they won’t remember you once they woke up from their hangovers.
Fourth is having a boundary. Knowing your boundaries and staying within it can help you achieve your desired performance. Identifying your limitations is making you aware of your execution of a particular song.
Fifth, do not drink too much alcoholic beverages. It would only ruin your singing. You don’t want to sound slur while singing and also, resort to shouting when alcohol gets the better of you.
And lastly, don’t forget to practice, lots and lots of it. You want to be prepared and not be left behind, right?
