Linda Ronstadt
A special hello to any karaoke singers out there!
The key to enjoying karaoke is to pick songs you love but are also in your vocal range. For me that’s Linda Ronstadt. She’s got the most amazing voice. Just love her 40’s songs. They work best for my voice and my romantic side. Am currently working on “When You Wish Upon A Star,” “Skylark,” and “Lover Man.” Lover Man I also play on the piano so it’s a double musical treat. Have done “Someone to Watch Over Me,” and “I’ve got a Crush on You.” If the karaoke crowd is young they may not recognize the songs. I still do them anyway! Then I throw in a dance number towards the end of the evening.
If you’ve got some time, go to itunes and listen to Linda sing any of these songs. Her voice flows up and down effortlessly while also being rich and full. No weak upper register. The voice of an angel!
