it's been said that the only definitive way to get a musical earworm unstuck from your head is to actually sing it. But sometimes it's not enough to merely belt it out while you're in the shower, or to put it on the car stereo and crank the volume up all the way. No, sometimes you need an audience.To get more news about Melbourne City Karaoke, you can visit starsktv.com.au official website.
Here's a rundown of some of the best karaoke spots in the area, where you can live out all your American Idol fantasies.
This is the go-to downtown spot for karaoke, and it's particularly a destination in the summer when the bar's garage doors open up onto the street. You can pick up a mic every night, if you have the urge to get a party started on a weekday.
People take their karaoke seriously at nYne. Every Wednesday night, you can expect to hear faithful renditions of beloved Disney songs and show tunes in between the Top 40 pop hits.
This Spokane Valley bar hosts biweekly karaoke nights, as well as a "mystery song" giveaway: If you perform a designated tune based on a prescribed set of clues, you can win cash prizes.
The downtown bar and pizza place is '90s-themed, though its karaoke songbook is more extensive than that. Stay on brand by paying tribute to the pictures of luminaries like Kurt Cobain and the Notorious B.I.G. on the walls.
This Post Falls spot promises an extensive karaoke catalog and short rotation times, so ideally you're not waiting for hours in between songs.

You can do a whole lot at this spacious Hillyard neighborhood watering hole — play arcade games and beer pong, take in live music and dance to DJs. Wednesday nights are when the karaoke fans take over, and take advantage of the bar's weekly whiskey specials.
Which electric bicycle is best?
How much power do you need? Bigger is not always better. If you are in a hurry, high-power systems are interesting, but they are usually heavier because they require a larger battery to provide you with the right range. Some bicycles with high-power systems feel more like motorcycles than bicycles.To get more news about fatest ebike, you can visit magicyclebike.com official website.
How much should you spend? Like many other products, the use of electric bicycles can usually pay for the fees to be paid. It is important to evaluate how often you think you use an electric bike to determine the price range. Here are some tips about price points.To get more news about 52V Ebike, you can visit magicyclebike.com official website.
If you ride a bike occasionally, then you may not need the highest quality bike with all the high-tech features. For this type of eBike, I suggest that the price is above US$1,200. You can buy an electric bike at a lower price, but you may encounter frustrating quality problems.To get more news about himiway ebike, you can visit magicyclebike.com official website.
If you can ride a lot of bikes (to go to get off work, take your kids to school, etc.), then I recommend that you use reliable parts to cope with the daily driving. These batteries usually have high-quality batteries that can last for many charging cycles (longer service life). These are usually electric bicycles, and the price is between $1,500-$2,500.
With the VanMoof S3(opens in new tab), this Dutch hipster brand has taken the S2, which was excellent and made it better. Oh, and it's knocked over ￡1,000/$1,000/€1,000 off its price. How could we not make it best electric bike?
The S3 is a very sturdily built thing that rides extremely well. You can get up to 20mph on the flat with minimal effort, and it irons out hills a treat. Hydraulic disk brakes bring it to a dead stop.
Aside from crashes, the biggest worry about riding a bike in our crime-ridden cities is the ever-present threat of theft. To fight back against that, VanMoof S3 includes an integral magnetic lock – very hard to remove – an integral alarm and a GPS tracker that can be used to locate it if anyone is foolhardy enough to steal the bike. Even more remarkable, VanMoof will then send someone to find your bike, and politely ask the nice man to give it back.
The four, auto-shifting gears of the S3 are a big improvement over the S2. That only had two, and they shifted in a way that was often hugely irritating. The only issue I have with this bike is that nobody needs a four-gear hub to shift up and down on its own, and it's one more thing to potentially go wrong.So it's been knocked off the top spot for now, but the E-Brompton(opens in new tab) is seriously impressive. If your daily commute includes public transport followed by cycling, it offers total ease of 'parking', can be more easily stowed in a luggage rack than the GX, and still allows you to arrive in a pristine and unsweaty state, thanks to the electric assistance.
The F1-trained engineers at William Advanced Engineering assisted with the electrical parts and the result is a 250W motor that provides pedal assistance via the front hub – which is still a very unusual approach. It draws power from a 300Wh battery pack that sits in a bag and goes on the front where the Brompton luggage rack would normally sit. You can also opt for a larger bag that holds both the battery and your spare suit or laptop or whatever.
The Brompton is fun to ride in urban settings, although admittedly not as much so as the GX. Its powerful enough to breeze up hills with minimal effort, but feels nimble on the flat. As with any Brompton, you probably won't win a half-mile sprint on it, but thanks to the pedal assistance, you most certainly will get off to a flying start.
The reason it stands above other electric bikes is that Brompton has worked out how to apply power assistance to your pedalling so it feels natural. It also doesn't feel so much like it's trying to fight you once you reach the maximum, 15.5mph assisted speed.
A neat smartphone app shows current charge levels and lets you tailor assistance settings, while cadence and torque sensors mean power delivery is smooth and only kicks in when truly required. Brompton also plans to offer diagnostics and warnings that a service or battery replacement may be necessary via the app.
Brompton offers fewer options than it does with its standard steeds, but while it comes in any colour you like, so long as that's black or white, there is also a choice of two or six gears, that 20-litre bonus luggage option, and you can shell out extra for a fast charging system that delivers an 80 per cent battery top up in just 90 minutes.
The Electric Brompton folds up exactly the same as the non-powered Brompton. It's so simple, and unlike certain folding bikes we could mention, what you're left with is a genuinely small thing, rather than something that's about the size of a bike with the front wheel taken off. However, the extra weight of the electric drivetrain means you can't just lug it about with the ease of a standard Brompton.
It's not bad at all as you wheel it about on the flat – it has small, suitcase-style additional wheels that come into play once folded up. However, if your commute involves, for instance, having to cross over a bridge to get to a railway platform, you will not enjoy that experience.
Why are Singaporeans so obsessed with KTV?
If music is the food of love, then KTV lounges are a glutton’s paradise for many in Singapore.To get more news about Melbourne City Karaoke, you can visit starsktv.com.au official website.
It seems no matter our station in life, there are specific things that instantly evoke a surge of affection for being Singaporean. These include hearing the Singaporean accent in a foreign country, seeing a “mama shop” (a sundry shop at HDB estates) still standing, and belting out old school pop songs in a KTV lounge with friends. Despite KTVs being closed for more than a year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, recent news about the police raid of illegal KTV outlets revealed our inexplicable, and apparently undying, passion for karaoke.
On Apr 3, police busted into illegal karaoke joints, arresting patrons for allegedly flouting rules under the Public Entertainment Act and Liquor Control Act 2015, as well as for their suspected breach of COVID-19 measures.
Netizens were quick to zoom in on the most significant detail of the story: “Nearly all had been in the middle of Mandopop songs from singers including Jacky Cheung and Jay Chou when the police burst in.” The jokes wrote themselves. One commenter said: “Rumour has it that the person insisted on finishing the song first before he was to be led away by police.”
Now, in the middle of a pandemic, this is serious criminal activity – those caught were not only breaking the law for a song but consumed alcohol without a permit, had more than eight people gathered and one person with an outstanding warrant of arrest, according to the police.Despite the seriousness of this crime, underpinning the amusing online reactions was an acknowledgment of the shameless stereotypes of being a karaoke lover, such as the desperate need to sing (or scream) that one song which defines our KTV experience one last time before we call it a day.
After a year since karaoke joints ceased operations during the circuit breaker period, this collective memory feels hazy at best. But a nostalgia for good old days fuels a large part of our love for karaoke — and this love will take more than a pandemic to kill. When news broke that local karaoke chain Teo Heng KTV was struggling to stay afloat after they were forced to close due to COVID-19, many friends took to social media to opine the place that Teo Heng had in their hearts.
The 31-year-old brand was a hallmark of their school and National Service days, having gotten them through multiple milestones in life, from healing after breakups to bonding with new friends.
In a squeezy KTV lounge, faced with a plate of cold peanuts on the table and a garish music video completely unrelated to the song, with Michael Learns to Rock or Mayday blasting over the speakers, and friends egging you on to sing your heart out, everything else falls away. Each song lined up on the karaoke system is a promise of escape from your worries. Behind the mic, life feels simpler, as though all problems can be cured through four-minute intervals of catharsis.
All of us occasionally yearn for the past, but when life has been turned upside down in a pandemic and there is no blueprint for navigating uncertainty for the indefinite future, this longing can hit especially hard.
Some of us still hope to return to "normal life", unwilling to accept that this is normal now.
In a way, nostalgia is an escape from the present. Before COVID-19 hit, we might have retreated to KTV booths to de-stress from a high-pressure work day, avoid everyday responsibilities for a few hours, or run from personal problems.
But the desire for escapism amid a global pandemic feels heavier and more urgent, less indulgent or hedonistic. We no longer just wish to escape common problems, but an entirely new way of living we were rudely thrust into.
There are certainly better solutions to coping with change. But sometimes, it’s the simplest solution that works best, like singing a beloved Jacky Cheung song whose lyrics you probably remember better than your Singpass password. On top of the nostalgia of crooning old tunes in a KTV lounge, karaoke is embarrassingly tacky — but that’s precisely why it’s adored and sorely missed.
No one cares about sleek, commercial aesthetics in karaoke. The music videos seem to hail from the 80s, complete with shaky stock videos of nature and models gazing wistfully into the distance in the middle of European architecture or endless fields with tulips and marigolds.

Radio Star Karaoke takes your vocal night out to another level. Sit down at the vintage bar and listen to people sing on stage or grab one of the nine private rooms and get the party started. Choose from two open bar packages ranging from $20/an hour to $60/person for the entire night. The large private rooms are big enough to fit a group of 40 and cost between $20-$120/hour. The drawback? Their song list isn't as extensive but how often do you actually stray away from your go-to song anyway? They will most likely have the classics you're looking for.

Hi-Note is a brand new jazz concept from entrepreneurs Gregory Reese, Phillip Reichenberger, and Darnell White. Envisioned as a combination jazz lounge, coffee café, and karaoke bar, Hi-Note will serve coffee in the morning until 4:00 PM, when it will switch to beer, wine, and liquor service. For the menu, Hi-Note is expected to serve light snacks like assorted pastries, Acai bowls, and yogurt and granola. The café will also serve grab-and-go options like sandwiches with cured meets, charcuterie boards, grain bowls, and Greek salads.
Prior to opening up Hi-Note, the principals formerly operated Baby Grand, another popular karaoke bar known for its intimate setting. While Baby Grand also closed down due to Covid, the owners have since acquired a new space for the location and are in the process of developing it. Their progress can be tracked on their Instagram account.
Moving into the space 188 Avenue B, Hi-Note will be replacing Rue B, a well-known bar and live music venue that operated in Alphabet City for nearly 23 years. Rue B sadly closed down in October 2021, and while owner Mike Camacho announced his intention to revive the lounge at a new space, no more news has been broken about the space since their closure. As a former jazz lounge, the space is well-outfitted to meet the Hi-Note team’s needs, which will include the operation of a new karaoke machine.
The space at 188 Avenue B will be able to accommodate about 30 seats in the interior, as well as a 15-foot standing bar, but the space also features an outdoor garden that will be made available for patrons. Hi-Note is currently proposing operating hours of 8:00 AM – 4:00 AM every day, though the hours are subject to change should the community board identify any potential issues.
Charleston’s newest karaoke star is born each night
Hanging around a crowded bar is one way to meet a few friends, but that same bar on karaoke night is something else — there’s just something about singing the first few bars of a song that quickly creates a bond, even between strangers. Karaoke nights are coming back all over Charleston, so it’s time again to pick your favorite spot and familiar tune and wait for your cue. To get more news about Karaoke CBD Melbourne, you can visit starsktv.com.au official website.
Tucked into the tiny barroom above Gilroy’s on King Street, Bangkok Lounge is downtown Charleston’s go-to karaoke bar — and with karaoke seven nights a week, there’s no shortage of entertainment.
“Usually, something hilarious happens every night,” said bartender and musician Walker Trull, who hosts country night on Wednesdays. “We have been collecting these paper slips that are absurd as far as song names and artist pairings that people [incorrectly] write down. Someone wanted to sing “Dancing Queen” by Usher — I don’t know how they landed on that. We are saving the slips up for a collage we are going to put in the place.”
Bangkok Lounge has revolving nightly themes, whether it’s through-the-decades Sundays, rock ’n’ roll Tuesdays or wild card Fridays, when fellow host/bartender/musician Rebekah Riley snaps people with a pink riding crop when they get out of line.
The bar’s karaoke championship has been going this summer, with the final round taking place Wednesday, when finalists will compete for the belt and “a glorious reputation” said Riley, who also hosts hip-hop Thursdays.
“One of the best parts about it to me is the look of validation on people’s faces,” Riley said. “You’re dealing with people who don’t get applause in real life. They get their nerve up to sing, and everybody cheers for them. It’s giving people their moment who normally don’t get the spotlight on them.”Karaoke finalist Abigail Fitzpatrick is a Pittsburgh transplant with an affinity for dive bars. She ended up enamored with Bangkok’s welcoming atmosphere as she sang there more consistently.
“There’s no judgment there,” she said. “Nobody even bats an eye if someone gets up and butchers a song. Everyone is there to have a good time. Recently I met two girls there, and they’ve ended up becoming my closest friends in Charleston.”
“Singing with someone helps with the nerves and with moral support,” Fitzpatrick added. “My mom always said when it comes to karaoke, ‘You’ll never be the worst person there.’ It’s hard to be the best, but it’s hard to be the worst.”
William Covington has been hosting karaoke for over 10 years as DJ Wild Bill. “It just gets better and better each year,” he said. “You have your normal crowd that’s been singing since the ’70s — when karaoke came out — and now, the younger crowd is taking over. We have digital apps to sign up with, so now it’s a young man’s game. Technology is advancing how people get up and sing.”Some of Covington’s first gigs as a host were at California Dreaming and Wet Willie’s, and he’s been hooked ever since. Nowadays, you can catch him at Burns Alley, Uptown Social and Tin Roof. He’s also aiming to host at additional locations, like Sultan’s Restaurant & Lounge on King Street.
“When people get up there and become entertainers and get the crowd going, those are the most memorable nights,” Covington said. “We had one guy who was not the best singer in the world, but he was an entertainer. Even if he couldn’t carry a tune, he could carry a crowd.”
