Over 15 Million Americans Perform Karaoke Every Month

Posted on August 16, 2011 by John

According to ABC’s Nightline, over 15 million Americans perform karaoke every month at over 100,000 bars. Karaoke, imported from Japan, has been in the U.S. for over 35 years! A high school friend of mine is a karaoke singing machine – I was amazed to see him sing to Come on Eileen. For the life of me, I have a hard time remembering any lyrics to any song, so thankfully there’s this option! Personally, I prefer KTV – small private rooms with friends rather than singing in public with strangers.
