Subject: KARAOKE TIME!!!!

Written By: Bobby on 09/24/05 at 3:10 pm

Here is how you do it (taken from the what does your voice sound like thread).

http://www.inthe00s.com/index.php/topic,13096.0.html

It would be amazing if you can set it to music, have your music volume on lower than your voice though so we can hear you sing.

I may sing in a bit if I get enough people having fun with it!

Do your best (or your worst) and remember to have a drink or three before you start - that helps too.  ;) ;D

Or you could say, "Nobody calls me...chicken!" ;D

Cool idea though. I'm not the best singer - I can sorta do it at a quieter volume though (not good with making my singing voice "carry", so I'll put the mic volume up higher).

If I'm feeling up to it, I may try it some time as well - with an 80's song, of course! ;)

DO IT MARTY!!!!  :D

The idea of this thread is not to rip anybody's singing voice. It's about having fun, letting it go and enjoying yourself. Even if you mess it up, that's part of the fun!  8)

And yes, an 80s song would be brilliant - and then while you have the mic handy you can record your voice (pushy aren't I but I don't care  ;D).

Perhaps I should give it a go sometime. I've been practicing a lot, but I'm just not meant to sing.  ;D

Then again, some have said the same of Jeff Mangum(Neutral Milk Hotel)'s voice, that it sounds like one that was not meant to sing.  ::)

Its all well and good though because the song I wanna sing is actually an NMH song(well he covered it, its actually a Phil Spector song).

Oh dear. I have had no probs with 'File Lodge' before. I can only presume it's a passing phase.

Okay, I think I am going to have to put this at the start of the thread.

http://www.download.com/3120-20_4-0.html?tag=srch&qt=cheetah+converter&tg=dl-20&search.x=15&search.y=9

It is a handy free audio converter which will convert wav. files to mp3 files. I think wav. files are too big and there is a folder limit.

As a KJ (Karaoke Jockey), I have heard it all- people who should have record deals, people who need "liquid courage" (my preference is either Martini Caesars or Singapore Slings), peolpe who sound like cats being processed in sausage grinders...I've heard 'em all!

It doesn't matter what you sound like, or how drunk one gets...it's all about having fun!

Two examples: At one of my gigs, I had a couple who came up and wanted to sing. One was a bit slow, and the other had obvious Down's Syndrome. OF course, I let them sing, and I even gave the audience a buildup to them. They enjoyed every minute of it. Afterward, I had so many ppl come up to me, and tell me that what I did was a cool thing, since the majority of KJs in this area tend to be d**kheads about the whole affair.

Another time, I was actually competing in a Karaoke Contest, at a County Fair. After the contest was over (I won, out of 50 contestants), people kept asking what my secret was. I responded, "I'm not that good. I've just been singing longer than most ppl." (See my posting on Bios, to understand what I mean.)

So, you see, it's all about fun. Keep it in mind, and you won't go wrong!

OF course, I let them sing, and I even gave the audience a buildup to them. They enjoyed every minute of it. Afterward, I had so many ppl come up to me, and tell me that what I did was a cool thing, since the majority of KJs in this area tend to be d**kheads about the whole affair.

Another time, I was actually competing in a Karaoke Contest, at a County Fair. After the contest was over (I won, out of 50 contestants), people kept asking what my secret was. I responded, "I'm not that good. I've just been singing longer than most ppl." (See my posting on Bios, to understand what I mean.)

So, you see, it's all about fun. Keep it in mind, and you won't go wrong!


You should sing for us a Tubes song ;D

I recorded a 5 song Demo, which includes "She's A Beauty".
Once I figure out how to put it on here, I'll make sure you hear it.

Singing "Rock The Casbah" by the Clash.

http://download.yousendit.com/C804CBBF423B895F

Let me clarify that I am well aware that I fell out of pacing in the lyrics a few times...and that I didn't screech "JIIIIIVE!!!" the way the guy in The Clash did (that was one intentional, I just didn't want to do it). 

That being said, enjoy my voice.

There is a disc I have found out about.

In the U.K., there is a karaoke company, called "Zoom Karaoke".

They have a "Meat Loaf" karaoke disc that I would KILL to get!
The trouble is, they don't appear to ship to the U.S., and I have no idea how the exchange rate would go.

This disc has songs that aren't even available in the U.S.!

If anyone has ideas on how I solve this conundrum, I'd appreciate it. :)

I just googled for their website.  They list several stockists in the U S including two or three websites (karaoke.com was one I think)

Do you have to sing it with a British accent if you use a karaoke disc coming from a UK source?  ;D

ok that was a lame joke, but thankfully I'm *full* of them.  ;)

Thank Gaud I don't have to purchase another karaoke disc ever again!

I am now part of an Internet Karaoke Network, or IKN.
I now can download as many karaoke songs as I could possibly want!
I can also burn my own custom-created discs, as long as I have the blank discs.
