Karaoke Houses - Tokyo - Japan

As you probably know, karaoke is a big thing is Japan. There are Karaoke buildings almost near every train station. These, have small rooms that you can rent for as long as you want (most are open 24 hours).
Each room has a couple of tables and chairs, a big flat screen TV and professional microphones. The song book has thousands of songs to choose from (in English too).
When singing in a private room, with a professional microphone, alone or with friends, you can be tricked to believe that you sing like Tina Turner, Madonna, Aretha Franklin or Pavarotti. In most cases, like mine, it also saves me from some public embarrassment, but I have to admit, it’s a lot of fun.

  2. I was so high I did not recognize
    The fire burning in her eyes
    The chaos that controlled my mind
    Whispered goodbye and she got on a plane
    Never to return again
    But always in my heart

    This love has taken it�s toll on me
    She said goodbye too many times before
    And her heart is breaking in front of me
    I have no choice cause I won�t say goodbye anymore

    I tried my best to feed her appetite
    Keep her coming every night
    So hard to keep her satisfied
    Kept playing love like it was just a game
    Pretending to feel the same
    Then turn around and leave again

    This love has taken it�s toll on me
    She said goodbye too many times before
    And her heart is breaking in front of me
    I have no choice cause I won�t say goodbye anymore

    I�ll fix these broken things
    Repair your broken wings
    And make sure everything�s alright
    My pressure on her hips
    Sinking my fingertips
    Into every inch of you
    Cause I know that�s what you want me to do
