To the Karaoke Virgin- Losing one’s karaoke virginity is utterly terrifying as well as totally invigorating— just relax and enjoy that ride!
First step is to successfully find a song to sing by literally searching through a ton of alphabetized track-listings in the karaoke song book. Daunting for sure, but don’t lose your nerve now as the end goal is to pop your karaoke-cherry!
Once you’ve found a song to sing; write down the title as well as your name on the karaoke slip / form and hand it straight to the karaoke host before you change your mind and chicken out.
Reality is that losing your karaoke virginity— just like in sex is typically— not going to be your best star quality performance! But you did it and there’s every chance that you’ll soon be addicted; to karaoke that is!

 Big Russ & Karaoke Virgins at RSL Surfers ParadiseKaraoke Virgin Song Choice Tips
Choosing
the right song: It’s best to not choose a song just because you really
like it but instead to choose something within your vocal range. A good
rule of thumb is to select a song that you can and enjoy singing along
to either in the car or at home.
Choose a really well known – feel
good song: The idea is to choose something that will have the audience
chorusing along with you. Think popular sing along song types like- Pour
Some Sugar on Me, Here I Go Again, Brown Eyed Girl, Walk 500 Miles or
something by Abba, Queen or another famous group. Or NOT!
Choose a
song that fits the crowd & singers: Is the venue seriously rocking
it out or is there a mellower bluesy vibe going on? Choose a karaoke
song that will fit nicely into the playlist and you’ll kind of just
blend in. Of course if you don’t want to blend— just go ahead and do
YOUR own thang and own that stage!
Ask the karaoke host (KJ): Rest
assured your karaoke host will have plenty of fabulous song choices that
will be perfect for you to break your karaoke cherry on!
