Start with The Beatles then branch out

If I was going to create an instructional video on “How to start using a Karaoke machine in your home,” one of the first steps would be, start with The Beatles. You don’t have to be a Beatles fan to know that at least half the people participating at any Karaoke party will know one, two … perhaps a hundred songs by the Fab Four. AND, that percentage is going to increase next year—thanks to Disney.

The release of the new Peter Jackson documentary “Get Back” will likely force me to break down and finally get Disney+. I’ve been a holdout since there is just too much that I still want to watch on Netflix, Prime, HBO, etc. But like many people with a lifelong appreciation of Beatle music, the promise of sitting in the studio with Paul, John, George, and Ringo as they record their final album is too much. Just too much.

And it will be too much for a whole new generation. Millions of people already have Disney+ and many will say to themselves, “maybe I’ll give this Jackson doc a try” probably because they liked Lord of the Rings and wanted more of that. Well this isn’t that. But the reviews are in: for example, see Best Buy Blog contributor Jason Gorber’s review on the “ThatShelf” website to understand why I believe many people will be mind-blown! They’ll be humming Beatles songs and singing in the shower for the rest of the year if not their life.

Karaoke is perfect for singable songs

Which brings me back to the ION Karaoke machines and why this is a great year to get one. As more people embrace their inner “Beatle” there will be more people able to sing songs we all can recognize. You will also want to sing today’s songs and that’s great too. But you’ll be aware that as soon as you start to sing Octopus’ Garden, most of your audience will be with you at every syllable.

I believe music evolved to bring us together. Anyone who sings, even a professional musician, gives a piece of themselves by doing so. Listening and cheering is receiving and accepting that person as they are. Giving and receiving … perfect for this time of year don’t you think? Actually, perfect any day of the year. We can gather to give and receive from each other with vulnerability, humility, and in the name of having fun together. That’s what to expect with Karaoke in your home.

  1. Ion Audio Sport XL iPA130 all-weather wireless speaker. I love this model for the grandkids and family and friends at Christmas in particular when we are getting together and we can sing our hearts out. Love them all though. They are all amazing. Waterproof is an added feature when we get together out on the lake at the fish shack to do some ice fishing. We can sing our hearts out while roasting marshmallows.

  2. Ion Audio SportXL iPA130 All-Weather Wireless Rechargeable Speaker with Mic – I love the all weather feature!

  3. Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is a great karaoke jam – nothing better then wailing with your family!! 🙂

  4. I love the “ION Party Rocker Effects Bluetooth Speaker with Microphonebuilt-in colored light show with four vibrant colors”. My grandkids would love to use this particular one over the holidays. They love to sing and dance and the lights will just add that great addition to the room we are in.

  5. The Ion Audio Sport XL would be great for my parents and I. We love to sing everywhere we go whether its outside or inside the house. Wireless rechargeable sounds great and so does singing in the rain.

  6. Ion Audio SportXL iPA130 is the must-have and I learned that the vocal is not easy to handle by weak amplifiers. You definitely need a more powerful machine. 120W seems a good fit.

  7. Octopus’ Garden is my favorite to sing. I also sing a lot of Chinese pop music. It’s so popular in my home town.

  8. The ION Audio Sport XL all weather would be perfect for me since it is wireless rechargeable which means it is easy to bring in and out of the house plus the long life rechargeable battery is a bonus!

  9. I love this one ” ION Party Rocker Effects Bluetooth Speaker with Microphone” mainly because of the party lighting to put some ambiance!!!

  10. At every party i go to I’m always saying we should have a karaoke machine. I love singing and I think singing brings people together. Whether you sing for kicks, or are should be grammy nominated, singing just livens up a party! I would love to win the ION Party Rocker. The light effects just add to the ambiance and atmosphere of a karaoke lounge in your own home!!!

  11. I think Hey Jude is a perfect karaoke song. After all, who doesn’t like to be embraced rocking side to side sining with your comrades.

  12. The ION Party Rocker Effects Bluetooth Speaker with Microphone would be excellent to win. The small size is ideal for my living room
