Turns out to be Home Made karaoke by MT Karaoke 2018

I have once again been asked for "Come with me" by Special D.

Does anyone have the skills and time to make it?

I am surprised I have never been asked for it before until recently as it is a good, upbeat tune for the clubland fans!

 

Lee.

Although there are "karaoke versions" of this track on YouTube, none of them have sweeping graphics, I presume because the track itself is Electronica, and a key component of that genre of music is that the vocals are usually sped (speeded?) up.

 

One of the drawbacks of CDG graphics is the wipe speed and the fact that it does so in segments. It has long been understood that the faster the wipe, the harder it is for the screen to refresh, and the brain to understand what it is seeing, and then expressing that information, especially if it is unfamiliar. Anyone trying to sing at karaoke for the first time "Guitar Man" by Elvis, or most hip hop rap tracks will know how hard it is. Introduce vocals that have been sped up into that, and you have a near impossible task, a) to get the graphics onto the screen in a legible manner, and b) to process the information fast enough to be able to sing those lyrics.

 

MP4 (video) karaoke would give a smoother rendering of the synchronised wipe, but the cognition and expression issue would still be a problem.

 

This is generally why faster songs quite often slip through the net when it comes to Commercial track production. If you throw into the mix that in karaoke producing nations, the highest chart position attained by the song was 6 in the UK for one week, (it didn't even chart in France!), the commercial value of creating, synchronising and marketing the track has very little financial value to producers (if indeed they could get it licensed!).

 

All that being said, if you wish the audio only version...

I did a bit of tweaking with the available files on YT, and came up with this

Just be aware, that there is a massive instrumental break in this song, from 00:46 to 02:00, and an outro from 02:24 to the end 03:04... One minute and ten seconds of actual singing in a just over three minute track... Not quite 'Tequila' (which I actually had someone do on Saturday (groan....)...

Does anyone have a .txt file for the legends 001-250 disks?

Dan, have you ever considered actually doing what the rest of us do, and obtain, or - god forbid - buy the software to create your songbooks?

I followed that link, and there appears to be 0 Seeders, and utorrent reports them all as 320k mp3 files (as per the description) anyway. Does that mean if anyone does actually seed it, then we have to rename all the mp3's as rar's, then convert them?

Well, that beats me. I DL'd it a few weeks ago and my folder for downloads

was overflowing so i was checking thru to see what I'd gotten in haste that I

could delete and these were there with the same folder name and all.

 

I've put them up below, but they have been massively from what was

uploaded ~~ all of the files were RAR'd and their content names were

different to the archive files in the fact that the RARs were numbered but

the songs within weren't. I've put them up on my GDrive for anyone

interested.

PS: Checking thru the ID3 tags I saw that they had all been downloaded from

the old karaoke-world site, I find it hard to believe that Jock 'n' Geordie

would have let them go out in that state without checking them first.

I have tried to get the software. I paid for karaoke song list creator from Airware but apparently its no longer updated and they didn't have the legends set on.

 

I couldn't follow BJ'S instructions. It just didn't seem to work.

Strange, the copy of KSLC I have (2020) lists all the LEG discs from 1-247 (it never got to 250!)
