Firstly, you’ll need to think some of the songs you like or your favourite bands or artists. You’re a lot likely to perform better if you choose a song you actually enjoy. Choose the Key Once you’ve narrowed it down a bit, you should think about the key of the song. If you have a naturally low voice, then you’ll probably struggle with Kate Bush’s Wuthering Heights, even if it’s one of your favourite songs. Equally, if you’ve got a fairly high voice, don’t pick something by Elvis. Think About Vocal Range The hardest songs require a wider vocal range, for example, anything by Leona Lewis is likely to be too difficult unless you’re very confident with your vocal range. So be realistic and think about your range and which songs will best show it off. Pick the Right Tempo Next, have a think about the tempo of the song. If you’re a very confident singer, you might be able to pull off a slower ballad. But if you’re nervous or not as confident, pick something more upbeat. Faster songs are better at hiding a shaky performance as slower songs are likely to highlight it. Know your Audience If you know you’re performing in front of a group of 20 something’s, then it’s unlikely that a song by the Beatles will be the best option, even if they’re your favourite. The most important thing is that you pick a song you like however, but keep your audience in mind too. Think Outside the Box There’s no harm in straying from the 10 classic karaoke songs, doing something different is a great way to stand out. But don’t do anything too obscure and make sure it’s a song that most of your audience are likely to know well. Karaoke Singing Tips So now you’ve chosen your ideal karaoke song, how can you make sure your performance is as good as it can be? Here are some karaoke singing and performance tips to help you out. Always warm up first if you can. It’ll go a long way to making your performance as good as possible. Keep hydrated before your performance to avoid your throat getting dry and affecting your singing ability. Be confident and smile! Move around the stage and get into it! It’s a lot easier for the audience to enjoy the performance if they can see that you do. But don’t overdo it and make sure it’s not cringey. Remember your breathing. Keep it regular and deep in order to be able to consistently hit the more challenging notes. Keep the microphone a few inches from your lips. Don’t get too close or it could get muffled, and if you’re too far then you’ll have to sing a lot louder which can decrease your ability to hit all the notes properly.
