Karaoke Kids

Karaoke (カラオケ, Karaoke? from Japanese kara, "empty" or "void", and ōkesutora, "orchestra") (pronounced IPA: /ˌkæriˈoʊki/ or /kəˈroʊki/; in Japanese IPA: [karaoke]; listen (help·info)) is a form of entertainment in which amateur singers sing along with recorded music using a microphone and a PA system. The music is typically a well-known pop song in which the voice of the original singer is removed or reduced in volume. Lyrics are usually displayed on a video screen, along with a moving symbol or changing color, to guide the singer. In some countries, karaoke with video lyrics display capabilities is called KTV. It is often misspelled 'kareoke' (ka-ree-oh-kee) due to the English pronunciation.
