Karaoke French Style

This week, Esperanto had a karaoke night for us at one of the bars. We decided to go there and check it out. Contrary to how Americans do karaoke, the French do it slightly differently. For starters, I did not know there was any other way to do karaoke other than the way we know it, but I was wrong. French karaoke does not include a microphone and consists of the whole bar singing every song. There is not just one person that goes up and chooses a song to sing. The French have the words projected onto a screen so that everyone can sing along. Everyone is up and "dancing" and singing. Now for the playlist. What is karaoke without a little Journey - French karaoke. There were tons of ABBA songs, like their whole discography, Kate Perry,  some really lame songs that I have never even heard of, and a few good ones in between, oh and how could I forget, A Whole New World from Aladdin (but in French). It was by far an experience.
