Top Tips For Lyrics Night

Introduction

Hosting a lyrics night is a great idea if you are having some friends over and want to have fun together. Although it’s not the same thing as a real karaoke night that you attend in a club, you can have as much fun by looking up for lyrics of your favorite songs and singing them along while the songs are on.

Step 1

In order to start a lyrics night the right way, you will need to choose the best tunes that you can sing along to. While some melodies are great to use for a karaoke night, others simply don’t have that special beat or feeling to them which would make them attractive and enjoyable to the people at your party.

Step 2

Make a list of the best tunes for your lyrics night after you browsed through more possibilities. If you have no idea which songs you could choose, go along with the hits from the 80s and 90s. The reason is simple: everyone knows the lyrics to these songs because they have been so popular over the years no matter how cheesy they might be. Some examples are represented by “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” by Wham or “Wannabe” by Spice Girls.

Step 3

Gather the lyrics to all of the songs that you have picked out for your lyrics night. To do so, you have two options: put all the lyrics into a folder in your computer after you downloaded them off lyric websites or create YouTube playlists based on the lyric videos for the songs that you will include in your lyrics night.

Step 4

If you’re going for the YouTube playlist made up of your favorite videos including lyrics, you should pick out those that show the lyrics in real time in order to turn your lyrics night into one that is very close to a karaoke one. This way, there won’t be a big difference between those karaoke videos that are used in clubs and the ones at your lyrics night.

 

Step 5

Make sure that you got all the songs that people who will attend your lyrics night like. It’s important that you include the favorite of each of your guests because otherwise there will be someone who will feel left out. At the same time, you should pick popular songs that everyone know about and even put in a few nostalgic ones that will create a lovely atmosphere, such as “Torn” by Natalie Imbruglia.

Tips

As long as you have a variety of songs gathered up in a playlist, together with the lyrics, your lyrics night is bound to be a real success among your friends. Listening to songs from childhood as well as those famous hits which were popular decades ago will offer all your guests an amazing time. In addition to this, your event is going to represent a very cool alternative compared to going to a karaoke show where there will be a lot of people that you don’t now, in front of whom you might be shy to sing.
