Karaoke DVD With Your Favourite Songs
By Nikos L Maxwell
To perform all your favorite karaoke hits at home,
you will need a microphone, a player and a song collection.
One of the cheapest ways to accomplish this is to buy
a karaoke DVD player for as little as $30.
Although some would argue that setting yourself to
perform on your computer is the least expensive way
because you need only a $20 microphone and 79-cent karaoke
downloads. If you are computer savvy and are willing
to spend $49 for karaoke software, then you can create
your own custom DVDs using your current mp3 collection.
Buying a karaoke system can be expensive, with some
of the more professional sounding all-in-ones ranging
upwards of $200. Why do you need to buy the speakers
or a video monitor when you already have a perfectly
fine audio hook-up?
A Big Screen TV With A Superior Sound System
For people who have already invested in a big screen
TV and superior sound system, a karaoke DVD player costing
as little as $30 will work out just fine. The Coby DVD-637
can play video karaoke and regular films only, so you’ll
have to make sure you review your options and don’t
mind purchasing special DVDs.
There is a wide array of DVDs out there, although many
of the karaoke songs come in CD G format, which is a
music CD with lyrical graphics that scroll across the
screen. Yet for $30, the Colby is one of the most cost-effective
solutions for the amateur singer in your household.
Kid Karaoke DVD Are The Biggest Seller
According to online retailer Amazon, the kid karaoke
DVD offerings tend to sell best. Disney’s "High
School Musical" 1 & 2, "Hannah Montana,"
"Disney Radio Hits" 1 & 2, as well as
"Jump & Jive with Hi-5" and Sesame Street’s
"Sesame Sings Karaoke" are all karaoke hits.
For older teens and adults, Billboard released a "Top
10 Karaoke Box Set" that includes 40 songs including
John Lennon, Neil Diamond, Dolly Parton and Sting, to
name a few artists.
Party Tyme And Startrax DVDs
Also, Party Tyme offers a multitude of karaoke songs
on DVD for $13.99, with themes including: Broadway,
Country, Old Country, Greatest Hits, Oldies, Pop, Rock
and Love Songs. Startrax offers fun genre DVDs too,
including 80s movies, 80s pop, alternative anthems,
another top 20 hits, at the movies, back to school,
boogie nights, classic R&B, country classics, dancing
in the streets, disco classics, girls night and kids,
to name a few.
Of course, not every genre is easy to find on DVD,
although it can be done. For instance, fans of Hip Hop/R&B
can check out R&B Classics by Startrax, which includes
cover artists doing "In Da Club" (50-cent),
"Hot In Here" (Nelly), "S.O.S" (Rihanna)
and "Shut Up" (Black-Eyed Peas).
Punk rockers will love the newly released Punk Rock
Karaoke DVD that features stars from the bands NOFX,
Bad Religion, Social Distortion and The Adolescents,
as well as performances/sing-a-longs for "Gimme
Gimme Gimme" (Black Flag), "California Über
