From one newbie to another, greetings! I found this site from a user's link in the American Idol forum. I've been singing most of my life, but around people since I was about 14. My mom took me to a karaoke bar (during the day so that I could get in). My very first karaoke song ever was "What a Feeling," the theme song from Flashdance. And it was only that one because the guy couldn't seem to put in the song that I wanted, which was "The Greatest Love of All." The Flashdance song kept coming up, so I said ok. :) I was in all things choir in high school and have been doing karaoke ever since. I never wanted anything more than to sing for a living, but I never had the nerve to actually do anything about it. Hopefully, I can start making my way in the music world this year...
