It’s been a while sin­ce our last ka­rao­ke night – so it was high time for round two

On April 8, 2025, we met again at 8 p.m. to sing, laugh, and sim­ply have a good evening tog­e­ther. We for­ti­fied our­sel­ves with piz­zas and kebabs from a lo­cal piz­ze­ria be­fo­re start­ing the ka­rao­ke. This time, as usu­al, the song sel­ec­tion was wild­ly va­ried: From rock to Dis­ney songs, ope­ra, K‑pop, cur­rent chart hits, and even ty­pi­cal ka­rao­ke clas­sics, the­re was ever­y­thing, so no one had an ex­cu­se not to know a song.

To en­su­re that the same peo­p­le we­ren’t al­ways hol­ding the mi­cro­pho­ne, we in­tro­du­ced a litt­le sys­tem: The per­son who would sing next was cho­sen by a turn­ta­ble. The per­son drawn was then al­lo­wed to choo­se a song – and an­yo­ne who knew it could sim­ply join in. This crea­ted an in­te­res­t­ing group dy­na­mic and even re­sul­ted in a few un­plan­ned duets.

The at­mo­sphe­re was very re­la­xed, and even if some peo­p­le were a bit he­si­tant at first, that was for­got­ten af­ter a few songs. Just like last time, the fo­cus was on ha­ving fun – no mat­ter how off-key a note or two might have been.

It was all over around mid­night – but of cour­se, we pa­cked up tog­e­ther be­fo­re ever­yo­ne went home, ti­red but happy.

Bot­tom line: Ka­rao­ke al­ways works. We’­re al­re­a­dy loo­king for­ward to the next one!
