Yes, I am crazy enough to go out and buy a karaoke set. This thought has been buzzing round my head for some time now, after seeing some of my friends singing away, and my neighbour Stephen inviting me to his place to join in the singing.
So I ventured out to Sim Lim Square and bought one. The set included two wireless microphone with buttons to select tunes and functions. It has a console and remote control. The whole thing comes in a carrying case like a laptop, and is portable. I can carry it anywhere and set it up as long as there is a television available. The hard disk and SD card hold a repertoire of 27,000 songs. Besides English songs, there were Chinese, Tagaloc, Vietnamese, Indonesian and some Spanish songs.
The first person to use the microphone was the Princess - Emma. She was thrilled to sing into the microphone and had a fun day with it. There were some nursery tunes in the repertoire and she enjoyed singing them. She even sang a song she picked up from the maid.
Despite my love for music from the classical to the oldies, except the contemporary noisy pop songs, I made the amazing discovery that my singing is simply horrible! Luckily there was no one to hear me, as I made my debut in trying to sing. I ran out of voice! What to do? I guess I will have to sing quietly without the microphone. Any one for a song?
Till then....

Hope to hear your singing one day. Karaoke is a good way to relax and unwind and it helps to build up your chi. Work harder on your vocals and I really would like to hear you sing some cantonese opera la! Cheers, lily:-)
Chinese opera? I will be censored for obsenity. Not a bad idea if we can have a karaoake session after an eating session. Think about it.
The only Mandarin song that I can sing decently ... " Ni wen wo ai ni you duo sheng, wo ai ni you ji fen ... " can you figure which song is this.... heh heh! so when we going to sing ah?

Yes I know this song. Something to do with moonlight which was sung by the girl on CNY at Aunty Liz place. Can sing when you are all here next time.
Hello, you folks don't sing 'safe' songs la. Try out some rock pop and gyrate your bums for fun! That's good exercise after your makansutra. Haha..Lily
Good idea. We can create an earthquake. I would like to see Lily and Jac gyrate their bums.
