In case you slept on last week's video education catalogue, let's recap:
Karaoke (カラオケ) is an two-language portmanteau taken from "kara" (空) [empty, open - as in karate - empty hand] and the stripped-down, built-for-Japanese-phonetics take on the word "orchestra".
The world outside the Pacific Rim first learned about it sometime during the early 1980s, when Japan's awesomeness was being made globally manifest by the Nintendo Entertainment System, sushi and efficient car production. It gets kind of a bad rap here in the States; most people, broken under torture and made to recall their first karaoke experience, offer up the usual litany of reasons for why it's not so much fun: It's embarassing; Why would you want to sing in front of an entire bar?; Those people are freaks; We had a karaoke machine at a neighborhood block party once, and my mom started singing Achy Breaky Heart - I've never recovered; I really, really don't like Living on a Prayer; and Do people still do that?
Until you saw Lost In Translation, you could have been forgiven for thinking that everyone, everywhere felt that way about it. You would have been wrong, but.
If Japan has shown me anything, it's 1) that college is best enjoyed with lots of table tennis and a masochistic eye to alcoholism and that 2) karaoke is serious business. When you're staring down the songbook, you've got to be on the top of your game. It's not a joke: you're being charged by the minute, everyone else is starting to key in their songs and the queue is filling up.
We will pass through corridors of sugar smoke and cracking black paint. We will enter the booth, I will take a microphone and pretend really well that I can sing - and you might buy it. The songs above might not make a lot of sense right now, but I promise to give them some meaning before the night has run its course.

Arrrgghhh!! Your host is not dial-up friendly. Thanks anyways.
Sorry if it's giving you trouble. Wish it could be a bit easier, although it could also be a lot worse.
Having no luck at all?

That sums up Nagoya. There is so much we learned in those months.
