I’ve always been the one to say the first goodbye Had to love and lose a hundred million times Had to get it wrong to know just what I like Now I’m fallin’
You say my name like I have never heard before I’m indecisive but this time I know for sure I hope I’m not the only one that feels it all Are you fallin’?
Center of attention You know you can get whatever you want from me Whenever you want it, baby It’s you in my reflection Now I’m afraid of all the things it could do to me If I would’ve known it, baby
I would’ve stayed at home ‘Cause I was doin’ better alone But when you said, «Hello» I know that was the end of it all I should’ve stayed at home ‘Cause now there ain’t no letting you go Am I falling in love With the one that could break my heart? Oh no, I was doin’ better alone But when you said, «Hello» I know that was the end of it all I should’ve stayed at home ‘Cause now there ain’t no letting you go Am I falling in love With the one that could break my heart?
I wonder when you go, if I stay on your mind Two can play that game, but you win me every time Everyone before you was a waste of time Yeah, you got me

La primera máquina de karaoke la introdujo el cantante Daisuke Inoue, pero el éxito fue un poco por casualidad, ya que la gente asistente a sus conciertos insistía en poder cantar junto a él, gracias al experimento interactivo tan novedoso. Cuando el cantante vió el gran potencial del invento, lo patentó en un primer modelo consistente en una máquina a la que había que echar una moneda para que funcionase
En América y Europa se hicieron bastante conocidos este tipo de actividades, sobre todo en los bares, cuyo público era mayormente joven. Principalmente, el corazón del canto al vacío son las máquinas de karaoke, las que constan de una pantalla, mecanismo de supresión de voz, lector de DVD’s, además del sistema de sonido. Al principio, las máquinas tenían un lector de cintas, pero luego se cambió a las clásicas cintas de DVD’s. Se han llegado a abrir lugares especiales en los que sólo se puede hacer karaoke, además de comer y beber. Sin embargo, hay otros lugares que no están dedicados completamente a prestar el servicio del karaoke, pero establecen algunos días de la semana para ofrecerlo. Hoy en día, las máquinas son mucho más modernas, con pantallas de alta definición y de gran tamaño, al igual que un sonido potente. De igual forma, existen concursos a nivel mundial de esto e, incluso, han llegado a ser televisados.
