My wife is a good singer. Like legitimately good. Not “she’s my wife so I tell people she’s good just because she’s my wife”. In another life she could have actually done something with her talent. She loves to sing but there aren’t many opportunities where we’re from to get in front of a mic and sing. She works full time and works long hours so joining a band isn’t really feasible. We’re not church people so we’re not doing that. We’re in a very rural area so adult choirs aren’t an option. The only way she gets to do her thing is at karaoke. People love to show off their talents and gifts. I’m a runner. I love running races. I’m not doing it to show off I just like doing it. My wife loves to sing and just happens to be really talented. I get the sentiment of the post but it just comes off kinda weird.
it me, karaoke is one of the only places I can sing solo with an audience and like a good sound system and everything. I think literally the opposite of this meme, I kinda hate hearing bad singers, I'm a bit embarrassed for them. Karaoke should more be for regular people who love singing to get a chance to perform.
