Why don’t smaller artists release their stuff in Karaoke form?
It seems like a significant source of word-of-mouth advertising, if a fan of yours can take a karaoke disc of your songs with them to any karaoke night they perform at.
For that matter, why don’t big artists release more of their stuff in Karaoke form? Is it really that hard to make a second edit without the primary vocals?
Oh for the days when you could just turn your stereo all the way to one side and get a sing-a-long version that was built into the regular version.
UPDATE: Out of curiosity, I emailed Michelle Shocked’s contact page, to see what they had to say about the lack of Michelle-oke. She asked me for a top 10 list…that sounds hopeful =)
