Shunned by your local karaoke night because of your unorthodox approach to melody? With today's arrival of Lucky Voice Private Karaoke in Soho, you can now limit your avant garde performances to audiences of sympathetic friends. |

Marketing itself as London's first Japanese-style karaoke bar (which is a bit like saying 'Indian-style tandoori chicken'), Lucky Voice consists of nine private rooms - accomodating four to ten people each - and a communal bar. As this is karaoke the 'classy' way, the rooms have Japanese-influenced red leather interiors while the VIP suites have gold ceilings and glass floors (we like!). And unlike the dog-earred laminate that might pass for a playlist down your local, all rooms have a touch-screen control panel from which you can browse a library of over 4000 songs. So if you still choose I Will Survive, you really should try harder. The control panel can also be used to vary the lighting or add vocal effects - because, let's face it, nature needs a little help sometimes. Let the song in your heart loose without public humiliation. But next time you feel that primal urge - hey, just get a room.
