The Philippine Women love to sing, So is a home karaoke system a part of life :-)

I also like to go out to sing Karaoke but wonder if this will be a need for our home. So much fun so it's very ok if it is. i call my girl every day and most times catch her singing something and love it. Any thoughts or experience on this?

it's not really for you..

or your life together.

it's for her, and her friends.

have one? she'll invite all of her friends over,

and have a great time !!

if'n yer lucky, she'll remember to thank you.

but - it's not about you, at all.

Karaoke machines rock !

Get One, Today !

I do have an older system from 2006 but it's in storage. Think I should break it out. I hope the neighbors will appreciate the singing too. :-)

Funny, as I write this my wife is downstairs singing on an improvised system using a laptop, the TV and Youtube. The mic is hooked up to an old karoke amp my brother gave me. Almost all Tagalog songs are on Youtube.

If you don't want to go through the trouble of putting a system together youself you can always get a Magic Sing or equivilent. Just search the internet or here is a link to the current top of the line model sold on ebay. It would be very close to what she is used to in the Philippines.

Its our way of having fun. it actually a therapeutic, especially when your stressed out .dancin5hr.gif It's not about if you're in tune or not, its about having fun and bonding. Yeah right it is more fun when you have more friends around. Make sure not to sing so loud, so not to get a high brows and a yell from the neighborhood. Is there a room with a sound proof?..I am also looking forward to have one, even if my future hubby didn't like that karaoke thing . Why what honey wants, honey gets...rofl.gif .

It's a generalization that all filipinas like to sing, but if she likes to sing, it is a must. It'll help ease the shock of coming to the US by giving her something familiar and you two will have fun, believe it or not.

Best of luck,

Bob

This is the sort of device you will be looking for. Most prefer the wireless microphone version and maybe 2 of the latest song chips to get startred. She can buy locally at SM Mall or you can Google around and find a distributer in the US.

It connects to your TV/home theater receiver with RCA plugs just like a VCR would.
