Random factoids: Karaoke, bimoraic clipped compound of Japanese kara "empty" and kesutora "orchestra." From 1961–1966, the American TV network NBC carried a karaoke-like series, Sing Along with Mitch, featuring host Mitch Miller and a chorus, which superimposed the lyrics to their songs near the bottom of the TV screen for home audience participation. The karaoke-style machine was invented by Japanese musician Daisuke Inoue in Kobe, Japan, in 1971. Nitro Karaoke has more than 8,000 songs to choose from, so odds are in your favor that there is a song for you to sing. You can even bring your own karaoke music if you desire.
