I’m going public with two unspoken truths:
1) Singing Karaoke is scary.
It is.
Why do you think people get drunk before they do it?
Because it’s scary.
2) I like karaoke bars.
It’s true.
I like the whole karaoke experience.
Often, the moments I like the best is when a group of several singers take the stage and “rock out,” both on key and off. I can tell you, it’s unusual that anyone who actually knows the song is holding a microphone. But they smile and dance and sing their hearts out. The sound can be, let’s say - off - but the festivity, the merriment of the moment is palpable. I love to see it.
The fact is I like to witness people having a good time. I like to watch happy.
