In need of a fun karaoke game to get the party started? You've come to the right place! Grab your karaoke machine and let's get planning!
In this musical twist on the classic game of charades, participants don’t just hum and dance out the song title – they sing it as well. Divide the group into teams and have a representative pick a song title without revealing it to their team. They must then act out the song’s activities and scenarios while trying to get their team to correctly guess the tune they are trying to bring to life.
Shuffle things up with Karaoke Roulette where participants don't get to choose their song. The karaoke master is in control, dictating who sings what with a spin of the random song generator. It’s a game of chance that often results in hilarious performances, and a great way to discover new favourite party tunes.
Pair up guests for a head-to-head singing duel. Each duet is given a theme, and they have to choose a song to match it. The audience votes on who delivered the theme with the best gusto! Themes can range from 'Power Ballads' to 'Songs That Tell a Story', keeping the competition fierce and the crowds energised.
This is the ultimate test for the music buffs. Play the opening of a random song and have participants guess the song title and artist. The person or team with the most correct guesses at the end wins. Amp up the challenge by selecting tunes from different eras or obscure tracks that require some serious music recognition skills.
You can't sing karaoke without a costume! Here are some cool karaoke dress up and theme ideas that will make your party memorable.
Throw it back with a decade-themed karaoke party. Whether it’s a '70s disco night or a '90s grunge fest, have your guests dress to the nines and the playlist tuned to the era. You can even deck out the venue to match, creating a full immersive experience in the time period of choice.
Love the music as much as the movies? Craft a karaoke night featuring the hits from cinema classics. Each participant picks a song featured in a movie, whether they’re crooning to an iconic ballad from Titanic or releasing your inner child with a Disney classic.
Unleash the inner divas with a themed night dedicated to the powerhouse women of pop music. From Whitney Houston to Lady Gaga, each song selection should be a hit from one of music's leading ladies. Encourage guests to dress up like their favourite pop diva to add that extra pop to their performance.
For those who love a good structured battle, a sing-off competition could be the name of the game. Participants compete in different rounds, with the best of the best stepping forward. Judges can score based on vocal prowess, stage presence, and overall performance to crown the karaoke champ.
No karaoke party is complete without the right tech. Invest in a quality karaoke machine and microphones, preferably wireless for easy movement. Make sure you have the sound system to support the enthusiastic vocals of your guests.
The key to a vibrant karaoke scene lies in the song selection. Prepare a diverse list of songs to cater to different tastes. From chart-toppers to the cheesiest of classics, variety ensures everyone can find a song to sing.
Create an atmosphere of camaraderie and fun. Warm up the crowd with a few group numbers, then slide into games to keep the energy high. Interaction is key, so involve the audience in judging or voting throughout the event.
Incentivise the spirited performances with small prizes or titles for the winners of each game. It could be as simple as a novelty trophy or bragging rights until the next karaoke showdown. Acknowledge the efforts of all participants to keep the encouragement levels high.
With these karaoke tips and ideas, your next event is sure to hit all the right notes. Push the boundaries of what a karaoke night can be and create memories that your friends will be singing about for weeks to come.

So why not add even more fun and happiness to your next karaoke party, it's the perfect opportunity to dress up and be silly!
If you're looking for some inspiration for your next karaoke outing or need ideas for your karaoke venue, we've got you covered with these karaoke dress up and karaoke party ideas for 2024.

A popular choice for fancy dress but you have so many choices when it comes to Lady Gaga costumes! Will you be 'Telephone' Gaga with coke cans as rollers in your hair? Perhaps 'Pokerface' Gaga with the iconic blonde fringe and dark sunglasses? You could get spooky with the 'Born this Way' skeleton version of Gaga?
Whichever version of Gaga you choose, it's sure to bring the house down, especially if you have the dance moves to match! Word of advice, we wouldn't recommend going as a meat dress Gaga, no one wants the smell of raw meat on the dancefloor...
Of course we had to include Barbie & Ken! Barbie blew the box office away in 2023 so these iconic characters are a must for you and your bestie. Bright colours (pink of course), bleach blonde hair and a gleaming smile is all you need to dance the night away! And remember, he's not just Ken…
Here's one for the dads! This one should appeal to everyone because Elvis has had a bit of a resurgence lately (we'll let you guess why). Austin Butler's performance as "Elvis" in the 2022 biopic should also provide some great inspiration for perfect Presley cosplay. Don your blue suede shoes and perform the King's greatest hits!
You probably don't need us to remind you that you'll need to practise your pout and "moves" for this outfit. You'll need to get a long, shaggy wig, a leather jacket and tight trousers to be the iconic Rolling Stones frontman.
To dress like the late, great Amy Winehouse, all you need is a beehive wig, dramatic eyeliner, and temporary tattoos. A few fake tattoos would improve the homage to the beloved "Back to Black" vocalist.
Enormous hair, voluminous sleeves, and eye-catching makeup are all ideal for looking like Dolly. The renowned country legend is still a timeless choice for your costume, no matter if you're at a karaoke bar or a party at home. Cowgirl hat and boots at the ready!
What is the one must-have piece for your Stevie Nicks costume? A tambourine! However, a long, shaggy blonde wig and a flowing dress would be ideal for finishing off your transition into the witchy musician. A shawl is also very essential!
If a sexy outfit is what you're after, there's nobody more iconic than Shakira! However, you should also work on your belly-dancing talents in the Shakira style, because we all know that hips don't lie!
You and your pals will look amazing whether you go for an early '60s mop top Beatles style or choose a "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" aesthetic. You can choose from a wide variety of eras, from the early grey suits to the later brilliantly coloured attire; all you need to do is pick a guitar and get started.
Bowie is a fantastic choice for a karaoke party because there are so many variations to pick from. Whatever incarnation of David Bowie you want to emulate, you can channel his creative genius by dressing like the legendary Ziggy Stardust or dressing like the crazy Goblin King from "Labyrinth".
You only need a frosted wig, high heels, and a short dress to channel the legendary Tina Turner. You have a tonne of alternatives here because the Queen of Rock 'n' Roll dazzled in anything from leather to denim and a tank top to sparkly ball dresses.
Missy Elliott has a unique style. The hip-hop icon has donned many memorable ensembles, but a matching sweatsuit with a visor, hoops, and extravagant jewellery is a truly stylish and simply cool option. A bonus for this costume is you can wear comfortable shoes like trainers to show off your hip-hop moves!
We hope you've found your perfect karaoke dress up idea, now all you need to do is get your karaoke essentials, invite your friends over and hang up that disco ball!

Before we get to some of the nation's most popular karaoke songs, here's how you can set up an awesome karaoke night!
How are you going to perform karaoke with your family? This is probably the first thing you're thinking about if you haven't picked a device yet.
Long-term use is made possible by portable karaoke machines, which are a terrific solution. Even better, the majority of contemporary karaoke machines use Bluetooth connectivity to stream music to the speakers, saving you a tonne of money on CDs.
Purchasing a karaoke machine with the option for extra microphones is a wise decision, particularly for larger gatherings and group sing-alongs. This way, you can perform duets together without squabbling over who gets to hold the microphone.
One great approach to liven up your karaoke night is to add some colourful décor. For a stylish neon glow, consider adding black light bulbs to the lights in your living area.
Additionally, you can hang streamers, blow up balloons, or use velvet drapes and strategically positioned rope to create a background fit for a star. And a few yoga mats could turn into the ideal improvised stage.
A karaoke night wouldn't be complete without delectable nibbles! Before you start singing, make sure you have some delicious snacks ready for you and your family.

]]>Unfortunately, the word 'karaoke' can fill some people with dread, but don't worry we're not offended (well maybe slightly.) Never fear! The karaoke connoisseurs here at Lucky Voice are here to help you hit those high notes and smash your karaoke performance.
In fact, did you know less than 2% of the population is actually tone-deaf, which is a term people use when someone can’t sing very well. With practice, most of us will be able to carry a tune!
Get ready to explore your vocal range and hopefully give you some tips to find your go to karaoke song!
You can't deny that singing and dancing to your favourite tunes is one of the best feelings in the world.
It's no secret that music can make us feel things, but when we perform it — that is, when we sing, dance, or drum — our bodies release feel-good endorphins in a way that passive listening does not. However, karaoke combines stage fright anxiety with all the positive chemical effects of performing.
And on occasion, that escape can be empowering in its own unique manner. Singing karaoke with your very own karaoke kit in front of your friends and family might be a great alternative for those who don't often have the opportunity to express themselves fully.
These are some helpful techniques that will help you start singing better right now. In addition, we'll go over how to be ready for a karaoke session and how to project your voice as far as possible.
Determining your vocal range is the first step towards becoming a better karaoke performer. What do we mean when we say this?
There's a limit to the notes that a vocalist can sing because each performer has a vocal range. Though you can work on this and get better, a certain range of notes will fit your voice better.
Stars with high voices include Justin Timberlake and Taylor Swift, so they are far more adept at singing high notes than performers with lesser vocal ranges, such as Rihanna and Elvis Presley.
Of course, there are some singers—like Whitney Houston—who have an incredible range that is hard to replicate, even a vocal coach wouldn't be able to help you with that!
To determine your precise voice range, you can try note matching. Attempting to match the notes on a piano is the most effective approach for doing this. When your vocal chords are having trouble matching it, you know you've gone beyond your comfort zone. This can help you choose whether singing songs with higher, lower, or middle-of-the-road ranges is preferable.
Making a checklist of some of your favourite songs that you believe you could perform well should be your first goal. The most important thing about your karaoke performance is that you have fun, so choose a song that you really enjoy rather than one that sounds good on your voice.
Choose tracks that aren't too obscure. Good karaoke songs are those that most people are familiar with and can even duet with, as this will make the performance more enjoyable for all. A shortlist of 10–20 upbeat songs is what you want to aim for.
You can then get down to business. To ensure that you can clearly hear your own voice, try singing every song on your list in its instrumental version. After listening to every song, order the ones that most fit your voice and your taste in music. Keep practising the same song over and over again and you'll have perfected your singing voice in no time!
Lucky Voice recommends songs by artists such as Billy Ray Cyrus, Johnny Cash and the Spice Girls who have songs with easy lyrics and catchy choruses! And of course Dancing Queen by Abba is definitely on the list of easiest karaoke songs!
It's likely that you are predominantly using your throat to sing if, at any time during your performance, you start to feel like your throat is straining. To fully utilise your vocals, you should instead be singing from lower down, all the way from your diaphragm. It all boils down to the fact that your breathing isn't deep enough.
Deep breathing exercises are the best way of tackling this. Use the belly breathing technique to concentrate on your breathing for ten to fifteen minutes each day. In order to fill your belly up, inhale as much as you can through your mouth and nose. Next, you must release the breath slowly and profoundly.
Additionally, as you are singing, try to breathe deeply and make the sound from lower down. Also, be aware when you are singing from your throat. Although it requires some practise, this is one of the greatest methods to improve your karaoke vocals and singing skills!
Some musicians, like Liam Gallagher, may have caught your attention by singing very close to the microphone, and you probably think that might work for you. This isn't the best choice for most people, though, and it can result in muted vocals.
Conversely, singing too loudly and depending too much on your throat can result from being too far away from the microphone. Your vocal quality may also suffer as a result.
If you want the best results, you should practise with an instrumental track. Because you won't be hearing your own voice, singing along to the original song won't get you very far. You may mistakenly think that you sound better than you actually do when singing along since you are more likely to concentrate on the song's vocals than on your own.
When it comes to karaoke nights, you'll be singing your heart out to your go to songs like a true diva!

Is karaoke good for kids?
Kids benefit from engaging in all types of musical creativity, including karaoke. Additionally, engaging in a family activity like karaoke strengthens relationships while being entertaining.
Additionally, youngsters can practise their musical skills and confidence by using a karaoke machine alone, or they can socialise by doing it with their friends or family.
Their confidence can be greatly increased by having them sing on a karaoke machine, on the television, or even as they watch karaoke videos. They will have the self-confidence and self-esteem necessary to perform at a school concert or deliver a speech in front of their peers if they have experience performing songs live in front of family and friends since an early age.
When choosing a karaoke machine for kids, you'll want to look for easy set-up, bright colours and the ability to stream music through karaoke apps on smart devices. You can find all these features in a Lucky Voice karaoke machine!
]]>Karaoke is a timeless activity for a night out, whether you sing along to slow jams or rock out with friends. It's a universally adored activity to take the stage and sing your heart out.
Whether you prefer a night out with cocktails at a karaoke bar, or you love to chillax on the sofa at home singing along with the help of karaoke machines, you cannot deny the fact that everyone loves to belt out a classic karaoke song every now and again!
Fun Fact: Philippines holds the title for the most in-home karaoke boxes with reportedly one in almost every home. Come on UK we have a lot of work to do!
But where did it all start? Who do we have to thank for the first karaoke machine? Who is the God of karaoke we should all bow down to?
We're here to take you back in time with the history of karaoke and how it's changed the way we enjoy a good sing-along. Let's go!
The word "karaoke" actually means "empty orchestra" in Japanese, despite the fact that it has become a widely used word. It is made up of the first half of the term "karappo," which means "empty," and the first part of the Japanese word for orchestra, "ōkesutora."
In karaoke, where you perform the singing, a backing track without vocals is normal; however, certain varieties of karaoke do use vocals on the track to aid karaoke singers who, to put it politely, may benefit from a bit of the old autotune.
Although karaoke is now a worldwide sensation, it actually began in Kobe, Japan, in the early 1970s. Bars would rent the equipment, and late into the night, their customers would sing (or at least try).
Sing-along television programmes like NBC's Sing Along with Mitch served as the forerunner to karaoke. For viewers to sing along to their favourite songs, this programme and others like it featured television hosts, a chorus, and lyrics at the bottom of the TV screen.
Regarding the creation of the first karaoke machine, there is some debate. Like other technologies, karaoke machines were modified and enhanced throughout time by a variety of people, who also came up with features like track queuing and other functions.
The karaoke machine and inventing karaoke itself, however, was created independently by three persons at various points in history, (and we love them all equally.)
Because he loved singing while he went about his business, Shigeichi Negishi, the owner of an electronics manufacturer, commissioned the creation of the karaoke machine in 1967.
Negishi asked his chief engineer to attach a microphone amp and a mixing circuit to one of the 8-tape decks the factory created so Negishi could hear himself singing along to his favourite tunes.
The karaoke machine called "Sparko Box," as it was known, was an attempt by Negishi and a distributor to rent the device to bars, but they struggled to outbid the nagashi, or local guitarists. Finally, due to distribution concerns, they decided against patenting and increasing production.
Never fear! Daisuke Inoue is here to continue the karaoke craze!
In 1971, Kobe musician Daisuke Inoue also created the karaoke machine. For events he couldn't attend, he would record instrumentals in keys that were easier for his clients to sing and distribute them as backing tracks.
He ordered a coin-operated machine to provide customers with a few minutes of singing time after realising the huge potential of this idea. They finally took off, starting the karaoke phenomenon that we are all familiar with.
And finally, the Karaoke Sing-Along System was created in 1975 by Roberto del Rosario. As the sole owner of the karaoke machine patent, the Filipino inventor is recognised for having contributed to the current level of karaoke's popularity in the Philippines.
Has karaoke really changed that much? Well, it's still of course the most fun and uplifting pastime ever, but yes karaoke has evolved with the crazy, modern world. There's even a karaoke world championship, held in a different country every year (our invite must have gotten lost in the post...)
The idea of open-air karaoke was taken and made more intimate by karaoke boxes, which can be found in karaoke bars or purchased to be used at home! Groups can host karaoke social events in private areas as opposed to singing in front of a packed bar of random people.
More people can take part in karaoke because karaoke boxes provide privacy. Customers can sing at any time of day with their close friends and family using karaoke machines in a karaoke club or in home karaoke machines.
Karaoke boxes can be found at restaurants, hotels, bars, and even shopping centres because anyone can sing in private karaoke rooms. Because they are soundproof, you won't disturb other visitors and will only hear your own party. (Your boss' rendition of 'Baby' by Justin Bieber might send you running for the hills though…)
Additionally, because customers can reserve a customised karaoke box for a special, private experience, karaoke boxes can be more customised than karaoke equipment at bars, including making your very own playlists for a themed karaoke night!
The best and simplest way to set up karaoke at home is to use a karaoke box or machine which is one of the most common methods. Some karaoke machines typically include microphones, built-in speakers, and amplifiers because they are made expressly for karaoke use. This is the best choice to avoid having to set up audio and video equipment altogether.
Karaoke parties are becoming increasingly popular, just because of how easy they are to host and the sheer joy they bring people!
Fun Fact: reportedly the top five karaoke songs of all time include Summer Nights - Grease, Let it Go - Idina Menzel, Sweet Caroline - Neil Diamond, Billie Jean - Michael Jackson and Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen.
We hope this guide to the glorious invention of karaoke has got you off your seat and ready for a boogie! Even better, you can get your very own Lucky Voice Karaoke Machine to sing your favourite karaoke tracks in the comfort of your own home.
The kit includes everything you need for an epic karaoke party, including a mixer, bluetooth microphone and access to thousands of songs!
Who invented the very first karaoke machine?
Japanese inventor and artist Daisuke Inoue created the Juke-8, the first karaoke machine ever, in 1971. But Roberto del Rosario, a Filipino inventor, is the one who has the machine's patent.
It is supposed to have started at a Japanese snack bar where a booked performer was unable to show up. The owner of the bar played pre-recorded music and encouraged patrons to sing along. Some claim that it began in the 1970s with a Japanese musician by the name of Daisuke Inoue, who sold people the rights to his recordings of songs so they could sing along.
Everyone can have fun with karaoke, regardless of their singing ability. So the next time you're in a karaoke bar, don't be scared to take part even if you can't sing a note! Or have a go at home with your own karaoke machine!

The Canadian singer performed on the Eurovision stage on behalf of Switzerland in 1988. She won the contest by one point and led her to becoming an immensely successful artist. Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi set her up well into the 90s with her simple yet elegant performance, showcasing her powerful vocals.
No Eurovision list is complete without ABBA. Representing Sweden in 1974, ABBA gave the most memorable performance in Eurovision history thus far, performing Waterloo. This set up the band for huge international success, solidifying their status as one of the most successful pop groups of all time.

Whether you're planning a karaoke night at home or hitting up a local karaoke bar, here are 10 tips to help you have a successful karaoke night with your friends.

If you're hosting karaoke at home, you'll need a good karaoke machine. Lucky Voice Karaoke Machine is a popular choice among karaoke enthusiasts, and for good reason. With over 10,000 high-quality karaoke songs, easy-to-use software, and great sound quality, it's the perfect machine to get your karaoke party started.
Make sure everyone gets a chance to sing by creating a rotation or letting people sign up for songs. Encourage shy friends to participate by offering duets or group songs.
Create a designated area for the performers to stand and sing. You can use a small stage or simply designate a corner of the room for the karaoke singers.
Karaoke is all about having fun, so don't be afraid to embrace the cheesy songs and dance moves. You might be surprised at how much fun you have singing "I Will Survive" or doing the Macarena.
In addition to a karaoke machine, you'll need a microphone and speakers. Lucky Voice Karaoke Machine comes with a microphone, but you may need to invest in a set of speakers to get the best sound quality.
To keep things moving smoothly, take turns being the emcee and announcing the performers. This will also give everyone a chance to be involved in the event.
Karaoke can be thirsty work, so make sure to have plenty of drinks on hand. You can also provide snacks like crisps and dip or pizza to keep your guests fuelled.
Add some extra fun to your karaoke night by providing props and costumes. You can set up a photo booth area with silly hats and glasses, or encourage guests to come dressed in their favourite rockstar outfits.
Make sure to have a good mix of old and new songs so everyone can find something they like. It's not everyday "Mr. Brightside"...
Most importantly, have a good time and encourage your friends to do the same. Karaoke can be a little awkward starting off but is sure to pick up and be great fun as the night goes on!

Karaoke is the ultimate pastime for those who love to sing, but there are so many myths and misconceptions surrounding it that it can be tough to know what's true and what's not. One of the most common myths is that karaoke can only be done at a bar or venue. But fear not, dear reader! We're here to bust that myth wide open and give you the truth about karaoke.
P.S. Sing over 10,000 songs on Lucky Voice Online, free for 30 days using code 1MONTH23
Many people believe that karaoke can only be done at a bar or venue, but this is simply not true. While it's true that bars and venues are often the most popular places to go for karaoke, you can actually have your own karaoke party at home! With the right equipment, you can sing your heart out in the comfort of your own living room.
This is another common myth that is simply not true. Karaoke is for everyone, regardless of your singing ability. In fact, the whole point of karaoke is to have fun and let loose, not to impress anyone with your vocal skills. So don't be afraid to grab that mic and belt out your favourite tune!
While it's true that many bars and venues offer karaoke late into the night, there are also plenty of places that offer karaoke during the day. Plus, if you have your own karaoke equipment, you can sing whenever you want!
This myth depends on where you go for karaoke. While some bars and venues may charge a fee for karaoke, there are also plenty of places that offer it for free. And if you have your own karaoke equipment, you can have as many karaoke parties as you want without spending a dime!
While it's true that karaoke is often done in groups, there's no reason you can't sing solo if you want to. In fact, many people enjoy singing alone because it allows them to really let loose and have fun without worrying about anyone else.
So there you have it, folks! The truth about karaoke is that it's for everyone, anytime, anywhere. Don't let these common myths hold you back from belting out your favourite tunes. Grab a mic and get singing!

With Valentine's Day coming up, we thought it would make sense to assemble a list of ten essential love songs. Love doesn't stop at couples eating extortionately priced pasta on a cute date though, as we've included some self-love anthems and songs that highlight the love between friends and family too.
P.S. Sing all these songs on Lucky Voice Online, free for 30 days using code 1MONTH23
1) Thank U, Next - Ariana Grande
Sometimes you've gotta love 'em and leave 'em. At least that's the sentiment of this catchy number from Ariana Grande. Alas, we all wish we could be as mature and positive as this looking back on past relationships but at least by singing the hook to this song you can channel that glorious energy - if only for a moment...
2) Let Me Love You - Mario
The writer of this blog post will try to remain unbiased despite this being their go-to karaoke song. With that said, this is undoubtedly the greatest song, love or otherwise, that has ever been. The chorus is infectious, memorable and puts into simple terms how we've felt about someone special. Karaoke gold.
3) Anytime - Brian McKnight
While being in love can be great, it can also be filled with uncertainty and painful longing. My editor has just told me to keep it light. Brian McKnight has a number of phenomenal ballads but this one just clinches it - mainly because it's one of the easier ones to sing. We're not ashamed to admit that's a factor!
4) Mama - Spice Girls
This particular love song focuses on the most important woman in most of our lives - good ol' mum. Half apology, half comforting hug - the Spice Girls do a great job at summarising how we may have taken our mums for granted when we were younger. Sing this song and remind yourself of who's important :)
5) You've Got a Friend - James Taylor
From family to friends, we're really covering all bases with this love thing. A heart-warming reminder to all our besties that while the world can be a bit mean, we'll be there through it all, this James Taylor rendition hits all the right emotional notes. Are you crying? Because we're definitely not...
6) My Boo - Usher and Alicia Keys
What's better than a short-lived love? One that lasts forever of course. This R&B classic is perfect for a duet, so pick someone you can really get into it with. We're not saying it has to be your "boo" but that would be preferable.
7) Born This Way - Lady Gaga
When it comes to love, please don't forget Number 1! It's fine to shout about how great you are, and Lady Gaga agrees. It's always difficult to pick from all the great Lady Gaga songs but this snappy track hits just the right spot when it comes to self-love.
8) We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together - Taylor Swift
Unfortunately we missed this one off of our "New Year, New Me" top 10, but it makes the cut here for being unapologetic about how happiness is more important than being with someone. You couldn't escape this song when it came out and thanks to top 10 lists you can't escape it now either.
9) Nice & Slow - Usher
Good on Usher for making this list twice but he is quite the expert at love songs. And if everyone doesn't synchronously shout the first line at full volume then I recommend finding some new people to karaoke with. Sorry! That potential disappointment aside, this song is great fun and isn't too strenuous either.
10) Hate That I Love You - Rihanna feat. Ne-Yo
Well this is a confusing one...either that or it attempts to showcase the duality of human relationships. We'll just say it's confusing. Both Rihanna and Ne-Yo are sublime on this track and the verse is a great opportunity to belt out harmonies with someone else.

In the spirit of inspiration, positivity and shaking off the troubles of 2022, here are the top 10 "New Year, New Me" karaoke songs for 2023:
P.S. Sing all these songs with the NEW YEAR, NEW ME playlist on Lucky Voice Online, free for 30 days using code 1MONTH23
According to this phenomenally catchy Motown classic, it is entirely possible to scale Mount Everest if one of your goals or desires is waiting on the other side. Of course we wouldn't recommend you put this to the test - instead, bask in the sentiment of this love song. If you want it, go get it!
This R&B anthem speaks both to what you endured last year and what you're going to accomplish in 2023! Nothing boosts the spirits like proclaiming "I'm not gon' give up, I'm not gon' stop, I'm gon' work harder". Try it out for yourself...
Big inspirational vibes all over this pop smash hit, and coming from the artist who previously brought us "Firework", we think Katy Perry knows a thing or two about believing in oneself. If you're looking to be more determined, spend more time with family or just strive to be unapologetically yourself, give this song a whirl!
It wouldn't be a Lucky Voice karaoke top 10 without one Queen song on it - even if we did "Top 10 Karaoke Songs That Aren't Queen" they'd still end up on it out of principle. However, Don't Stop Me Now is pretty perfect for this list, as it provides bucket loads of positive momentum to keep us going with any resolutions (at least until February...)
If the "New Me" you had in mind for 2023 was to be a champion boxer...then perfect. If not, this song still rocks and is utterly synonymous with hard work, determination and punching cold cuts of meat. Two out of those three make sense for this top 10, and that's good enough for us!
This one doesn't really need an explanation - just hearing those piano chords at the start would make the most uninspired person think, "My dream of baking the world's largest Madeira cake...it's possible!" So put on this karaoke classic and send us a slice of that cake when you get the chance.
Despite being scientifically impossible, the message of this song is still beautifully upbeat and puts you in the mindset of someone who isn't going to let the same old things trouble them anymore. We thank Katrina and her waves for this gem of a song!
All by itself, this soul classic literally propels the Statue of Liberty to walk through New York City in Ghostbuster 2. And if it can do that, then imagine what singing it can do for you! There's an energy within this song that, whilst probably not supernatural, completely embodies the 'New Year, New Me' mantra.
You've already had two unnecessary movie references on this list so I won't bring up Shrek. Oops. Anyway - this track is as catchy and infectious as it is motivating. Have a little belief and good things will start happening. Thanks Shre-I mean The Monkees!
Last but not least, fully shed 2022 and embrace 2023 - Kelly tells us that everything we've gone through only makes us more prepared to be our best selves going forward. And that is quite the beautiful sentiment. Plus it's a cracking song!

What’s more fun than a themed party? A themed karaoke party, of course!
Themes add a fun new dimension to regular karaoke parties, allowing everyone to fully immerse themselves in a particular aspect of musical culture. Perhaps it's 70s disco night - cue the flared trousers, Bee Gees playlist and a whole load of hip-based movements.
If you're hosting the party, you know your friends and family better than anyone so pick a theme that everyone can have a good time with!
1) Private Karaoke Rooms
For the most professional karaoke party experience, private karaoke rooms are the way to go. Themed nights transform the venue and all manner of props are available within the rooms (think inflatable guitars, massive sunglasses etc.). If you're unsure on a theme to use or how to implement this theme properly for your own karaoke party, this is a great place to start.
2) At-Home Karaoke Parties
Once you've experienced a private karaoke room, or if you want to dive straight in, it's time to plan your own karaoke party at home. Make sure to get the invites sent out nice and early for the best turnout, and that the karaoke setup is ready to go before your guests arrive (no one wants to be dealing with technical issues while everyone else is getting in the party mood).
3) Take it Online!
Perhaps a bit of an outlandish idea, but why not have a karaoke night online? The pandemic forced all of us to go to increasingly more advanced lengths in order to interact with each other (Zoom quizzes we're looking at you!), but these ideas need not go to waste now. Using online karaoke services and apps, everyone can sing together from the comfort of their own home.
1) Elvis
Elvis has had a bit of a resurgence recently (we'll give you one guess as to why) so this one should be right up everyone's alley. Put on your blue suede shoes and belt out the best of the King!
2) Musicals
This particular theme enables a lot of creativity as there are so many great musicals to choose from. Chicago, Grease, Dream Girls - anything goes!
3) 50s
Although Elvis has already got a mention on this list, you can never have enough of greased back hair and matching suits. The 50s was the era of the music group so this theme will promote singing ensemble - which is great for anyone who's a bit shy!
4) 60s
Time to rock out with big wigs and air guitars! A 60s themed karaoke party is probably one of the best options for really going all-out with costumes, but the music is no slouch either. Find out who's got the moves like Jagger...
5) ABBA
Mamma mia, this is a good one. Let's be honest, ABBA is basically synonymous with karaoke anyway so this will be more of a given than a conscious decision. You can still go for it and find out who's the true dancing queen!
6) Christmas Every Day
Don't you wish it could be Christmas everyday? This particular theme doesn't need to be reserved for that special time of year though - there's enough Crimbo karaoke bangers that stand on their own merits.
7) Space/Aliens
You'd be surprised how many songs there are that would go with this theme. Or maybe you wouldn't. Regardless, it's a great excuse to dress up as an astronaut or alien. Assemble rocket men!
8) Classic Country
Shania Twain, anyone? Or maybe you’re more Johnny Cash? Whatever you taste, from Dolly to Denver, a country-themed karaoke bash is sure to get everyone up and moving.
9) Boy Band/Girl Band
It's battle of the bands time! Come up with a very 90s band name and go head to head over the soundtrack of One Direction, Spice Girls, even Busted. It's sure to get competitive - just try to avoid the unfortunately common band breakup...
10) 90s Party
Most people have a major soft spot for the 90s and all the great pop, r&b and rock it birthed. This is arguably the most music focussed theme idea, but why wouldn't you let this musical gold shine? Even so, there are plenty of costume ideas to reach for - just don't go chasing waterfalls!
At Lucky Voice, we know a thing or two about karaoke parties. Book a party at one of our London locations today for a private karaoke room, cocktails on tap and all the fancy dress goodies you need to pull off the perfect themed bash.
Want a karaoke party at home? Now, you can take all the Lucky Voice fun home with our Sing At Home karaoke machines. They’re perfect for hosting your own karaoke party, whatever the theme, so what are you waiting for?

When you want to sing your heart out, it can be tough to find a nearby karaoke bar, especially if you live in a small town. For these occasions, you may be thinking how to host a karaoke night at home that is just as enjoyable as going to a karaoke bar.
Fun fact! The largest worldwide karaoke session consisted of 160,000 participants! But, if you're thinking of holding a slightly smaller karaoke setup at home may have just the thing for you...
Never fear, there is an easy way to enjoy karaoke at home! Plus, you won't have to place your name on a list or pay for pricey food and beverages while you wait for your turn.
Karaoke machines are a life-saver for the inner divas we know you all have, let's have a look at how to use your karaoke machine at home and have tons of fun!
Karaoke is typically seen as an activity you would go to a bar, pub or bespoke venue for - but there is so much more to explore. Karaoke at home can capture the same endorphin-releasing joy, just from the comfort of your own house.
In fact, cool research has found that singing can be good for you on many levels. It may help lower stress, boost immunity and lung function, enhance memory and improve mental health.
(Warning: can also cause huge embarrassment when Dad does his Elvis impersonation.)
One of the best aspects of having a karaoke machine at home is that you can enjoy the entire karaoke experience without leaving the house. But it's karaoke at home... How amazing can it be?
Prepare to be pleasantly surprised! With a wide selection of home karaoke equipment available on the market these days, such as wireless microphones and technology that connects to your smart TV or sound system, converting your home into a karaoke heaven is as simple as it gets.
Although it might seem like a bit of a faff initially, when you could just go out to a place where the setting up has already been done for you, all it really takes are a few simple steps for the perfect home karaoke setup!
Of course, a good karaoke machine is essential to a good at-home karaoke experience. There are a lot of choices out there, but looking past all the glitz and glam, great microphone quality is essential. Some cheesy, off-key singing is to be expected when in the midst of karaoke, so the last thing you need is a poor quality mic making you sound like a screaming cat.
As we all know, parties are good. But a karaoke party can take it to the next level! It could be a casual addition that people pick up and try out as the night progresses, or of course you could commit fully - decide on a theme, all dress up and come prepared with a signature tune for the playlist.
Of course, the best karaoke machines will have all the up to date equipment and songs you need for a belter of a party your guests will never forget! So make sure you do some research on the actual karaoke machine!
To avoid any unneeded stress when you probably have a million other things to worry about, make sure you get your karaoke machine set up before your guests arrive and download an up-to-date karaoke app with all your favourite karaoke songs and more! To lower the stress levels even further, keep reading for our simple step-by-step instructions on how to set up the Lucky Voice karaoke machine.
If you follow the link to our 'How It Works' page you'll find step-by step instructions on how to set up your karaoke machine, as well as a very helpful YouTube video detailing the process which you can also find below!
You can source all of these parts yourself but this could prove to be time-consuming - our karaoke machines come with all you need, including a free trial of the Lucky Voice Online karaoke service, so you can get singing as soon as possible.
It's time to ditch the DIY karaoke setup and sing like a pro!
At Lucky Voice, we know a thing or two about karaoke. Now, you can take the fun home with our Sing At Home karaoke machines. Our at-home karaoke system includes everything you need for an epic karaoke party, including a mixer, bluetooth microphone and access to thousands of songs!
One of the most significant advantages of singing karaoke is that it relieves stress. Because singing normally makes people joyful, it reduces the degree of tension in your body. Endorphins are released at the same time, and they help to relieve anxiety and stress.

When it comes to choosing a karaoke song, there are thousands of tracks available (well, over 82 million, to be more precise, but you get the point). And we all know that when there are too many options available, it becomes incredibly difficult to make a choice.
However, when it comes to karaoke tunes, you can definitely take steps to choose the right song that suits your voice and skills. After all, we all want to sound decent when we're up on that karaoke stage. So, without further adieu, here are four points for you to consider when picking a karaoke song to sing.
Whether you love songs from musicals or Hip Hop beats, you should always try to choose a song that you enjoy. This is the easiest way to ensure you have a great time while you’re up on that stage.
So take the time to write down 20 or so songs that you enjoy. Then, it’ll be a lot easier to fine-tune the list and choose a few top song choices for yourself.
While we do recommend singing a song that you love, regardless of the genre, it might not be the best idea to sing a Disney song in front of a crowd of 50-year-olds. This is why it’s important to be aware of the crowd you’ll be performing in front of.
Another thing to consider is the popularity of the song you’ve chosen. Karaoke crowds often love to sing along with the performer, but you also don’t want your voice to be completely drowned out. Likewise, you also don’t want to choose a super popular song that has been overdone, such as ‘Don’t Stop Believin’ by Journey or ‘Dancing Queen’ by ABBA.
Yes, we know karaoke is about having fun, even if you’re not the next Beyonce’ or Justin Bieber. However, no one likes to listen to a person singing a song that doesn’t match up with their vocal abilities.
So, with your list of favourite songs, you now need to take a look at each one and determine whether you have the vocal range to sing the song. To check your vocal range, you can use a piano and go through the notes and see if you can sing the same note comfortably. Or, there are various apps available that will allow you to check this too. Based on this, you’ll be able to determine if you’re more of a soprano (high notes, female) or a bass (low notes, male).
The last thing you need to think about when choosing a karaoke song is the tempo. There’s no point in choosing a fast-paced rap song if it’s only going to leave you tongue-tied. Likewise, you shouldn’t sing a song that’s too low if your vocal abilities aren’t the strongest - this is because slower songs tend to have notes that are longer, making them difficult to hold.
Whether you’re a singing superstar or simply love karaoke, there are endless, easy songs to choose from for your next performance. And if you follow these four tips, you’ll end up with a song choice that’s perfect for you. So what are you waiting for? Find your song, grab that mic and get practising!

It should come as no surprise that karaoke is our absolute favourite kids activity, and you can join them for this one too! Kids karaoke is an absolute blast for everyone involved and can help your child to gain confidence and singing skills. Plus, if you’re planning a kids party, getting hold of a karaoke kit or a karaoke subscription is a brilliant idea to kick things off on a high note.
If you get out the paints and glitter glue, you’re sure to see smiles on little faces. Our top tip is to get one large canvas and then each person adds a section or a few doodles to the canvas. Whether you’re doing this as a family or whip this one out at a kids party, you will create a colourful, unique artwork that will always remind you of this summer (even if it’s not a masterpiece).
If you’re a bit too busy to supervise, this plan can be adjusted with ease. Colouring in pages, crayons and pencils don’t pose too much of a threat and are great fun. There are really beautiful colouring book options these days, so this kids summer activity can work for all ages.
One of the best aspects of summer is the warmer weather, and it’s enough to make any kid ready to splash. If you have the space, you can set up sprinklers, a blow-up pool, or even plan a water balloon fight. All of these can also be done between children, with maybe just a smidge of adult supervision. Otherwise, consider heading to a water park, lake, or the sea.
Getting out into nature is one of the best things to do in summer with kids. You can pack a picnic, or pick up an ice cream cone on the way to make this one extra sweet. And while the kids are clambering and climbing, you can take a breather in the fresh air.
Wondering why this one is on the summer list? Well, rainy days come in all seasons, and there is nothing like a comfy movie marathon on a rainy day. You can pick a theme that suits your kids, like Star Wars, or a Disney marathon. Best of all, you can then do a little Disney karaoke so that the kids can sing along to all the songs they liked best in the movies.
This one might feel a little bold, but many museums have fascinating interactive exhibits for the kids. There are also museums dedicated to all kinds of things, from aeroplanes to animals, so you can find one to suit their interests. And when you visit a museum, you know that your child is learning something while having fun.
If you can’t imagine them wandering through a museum or gallery, try the aquarium instead. No child can be bored while gazing at fluorescent fishies.

]]>However, many people celebrate occasions such as these in their own ways -traditionally, communities came together at street parties across the country. However, it’s probably a little too late to organise an event like this now, but you can still host a get-together with all your friends at home. So, to help you plan a memorable event, we’ve created this guide to hosting an epic Jubilee party.
As we said before, there are bound to be many celebrations planned over this weekend. Start by getting your guest lists sorted so that you can send your invites out as early as possible. If you wait too long, everyone may have already committed to plans.
Crafting a good menu is one of the most important aspects of any party, and the Jubilee is no exception. Serving traditionally British items like sausage rolls, fish and chips or coronation chicken is never a wrong choice, and it’ll fit in quite nicely with the occasion. However, no one’s stopping you from putting out different dishes. Remember to check if any of your guests suffer from allergies or have any preferences.
The next most important thing is the drinks menu. Some Pimm’s or gin and tonic always goes down well on a hot summer's day, or you could try whipping up some martinis - after all, they are one of Her Majesty’s favourite beverages. Don’t forget to serve some non-alcohol refreshments too. If you’re still finding yourself at a loss for inspiration, many brands are bringing out Jubilee-edition products for the occasion, so keep your eyes peeled when at the supermarket.
You can’t possibly celebrate this historical event and not go all out with decorations. Whether you like bunting, fairy lights, or tissue pom-poms, the possibilities are endless. When it comes to choosing the décor, do try to stick to a theme. Blue, red and white is a classic and patriotic go-to. However, white and gold or a regal shade of purple can look just as fabulous, and it’ll go perfectly with the occasion.
While everyone enjoys a party with good food, drinks and laughs, choosing some fun games will keep your guests entertained, taking your party to the next level.
Karaoke is guaranteed to be a hit amongst your friends. So, make sure you have your at-home karaoke machine set up and ready to go. When you’re not belting out the lyrics to your favourite song, you can honour Queen Elizabeth with some royalty-themed songs, just for fun.
Monopoly, Clue, Risk or Checkers are some timeless board games while a couple of rounds of trivia are always exciting! You can even go so far as to play exclusive Jubilee themed games if you like.
With this guide in your hands, you’ll be throwing one of the most memorable Jubilee parties of all time! So what are you waiting for? It’s time to start planning and have a good time!

You may think this a shameless plug, but isn’t singing “God Save the Queen” like karaoke anyway? Why not level up the merriment by introducing a stand where people can stop-by and sing their favourite British anthem on a karaoke machine. Here’s 5 song suggestions to get your Jubilee playlist started:
Let the sound of Queen ring out at your party for the Queen - you know it makes sense!
How well do you know your neighbours? Probably the less you do, the funnier this activity will be. As long as it’s kept light-hearted with plenty of obscure and weird questions, like “what’s Dave’s favourite of all the great apes?”
We know you’ve been wondering all year which side of the street is the strongest. Use the Jubilee party as an opportunity to settle this bitter rivalry once and for all through a war of tug!
Since chalkboards have largely been abandoned in favour of boards that don’t make *that* noise when nails touch them, chalk rarely gets its credit anymore. As it can be easily washed off, the entire road is fair game for an art contest so let everyone’s imaginations run wild on the tarmac!
Just any old race won’t do at a Jubilee party! It needs to be unique, entertaining and something that pretty much everyone can take part in. We could tell you what to do, but the most fun is coming up with the idea yourself so the inaugural [insert your street name here] race can be truly memorable.
Weirdly there always seems to be one person at any street party, fair or other event that is excellent at face painting. Locate this individual in your neighbourhood and soon the kids (and adults too, let’s be honest) will be lining up to look like the Union Jack.
