Singing Your Favorite Karaoke Songs - Tips For Performing Well

By Jackie Cummings


Are you afraid of public karaoke performance? Before you start singing, you must: Memorize your songs - Discover the tune, the language, and practise the actions you are going to use. It is also really essential to learn and know precisely where to come in at the opening of the song.

Sleep - Get lots of sleep the night before you perform.

Singing - Ease your voice on the day of your performance but make sure you warm it up right before you perform.

Eating - Make sure that you don't drink bubbly drinks or ice drinks before you sing. Same goes with milk, yoghurt, cream, ice cream, cheese etc. This is not at all proposing that you should avoid taking these foods altogether. Just be careful that when you have to perform particular foods can interfere with your singing. It is a right idea to eat a couple of hours before you have to perform in order to provide the food to digest. It is no fun trying to sing on a full stomach. Some individuals wait until after they perform to eat, but I wouldn't advise this. First reason is that you need the energy to be able to sing well. I have also found that it's better to eat before you sing because it will help to keep your anxiety at a more manageable level. If you don't eat you will become even more stressed and unable to control the anxiousness.

Breathing - Deep breathing is advised to help you with performance anxiousness. The more you sing the easier it gets. However, this does not happen with everyone. Some people proceed to fight with anxiousness. The important thing you need to remember is to never give up. Don't let the fright stop you from doing what you know.

Dress to impress - When you are going to perform make sure that you dress fitly. It is advisable to be over dressed than under dressed.

Make up - Stage lights can make a person look washed out or really sick. So a bit of coloring will help you to avoid this. Age appropriate make up please!

Hair - Make it look special!

Warm up your voice before you sing - Do your vocal workouts, breathing and warm ups.

Arrive on time - You could get disqualified or a replacment might be found if you are late.

Smile - As soon as you walk on stage you have set about your performance. Put your shoulder joints back and smile confidently.

Enjoy yourself - Individuals will relish your public presentation more if you are involved in what you are singing.

Mistakes - If you happen to make a error pretend as though nothing materialised and keep going. Don't say sorry, whoops, wind your eyes or start laughing. Most people won't have a clue that you have made a error.

Recognise and pass along the message of the song - During performance it is very fundamental to commune the substance or narrative behind the song. Dont just stand like a statue. Learn about your character. Rehearse this at home when you sing your songs. If you do not practice beforehand you will not be able to make it materialize on the day of your performance.

Applause - Stand and receive the applause as it's being given and then walk off the stage. Constantly make sure that you hold back until the music stops before you depart. Remember that walking on and off stage are both critical parts of your performance.

Reward yourself - After singing try not to remember about the negatives. A performance is rarely perfect in every way. Don't permit errors or letdowns halt you from singing once again. A person who never produces any slips doesn't do anything.
