Check Out Linkin Park’s New Video!
One of our favourite Karaoke rockstars have released their new music video!
Linkin Park – famous for Karaoke Classics such as Crawling and In the End – have unleashed their usual high-tech music video for their latest song ‘Burn it Down’. With their fifth and brand new album released in June, the band’s debut single smashed the Billboard’s Rock Chart and came in at number 1.
The electro-rock song features Linkin Park’s trademark CGI effects and tons of shiny things exploding. And we thought they’d left the Transformers soundtrack behind!
We love to rock out here at Karaoke Network – you can find a list of our favourite rock anthems – including, of course Linkin Park – here.
Perfect for moshing around at some of our exclusive Karaoke Venues in London, you’re guaranteed to go home with some serious air-guitar action!
Linkin Park’s album Living Things is set for release on June 25th.

We were (kind of) right! Sweden wins Eurovision 2012!
With all our karaoke knowledge here in London, we like to think we know a thing or two about the latest music hit. We guessed that Loreen’s catchy number Euphoria would be a winner (amongst some other fair choices, of course!) Loreen’s hit gave Sweden a mammoth 372 points, along with the prize of hosting Eurovision 2013 in Sweden.
The former Swedish Idol contestant won over Europe with her dance extravaganza as well as what’s tipped to be a 2012 Summer hit.
As for our other predictions, have a look at how the Eurovision Final really turned out:
Russia’s Buranovskiye Babushki came second with 259 points
Italy – with Nina Zilli representing – came in at 9th place, 101 points
Ireland – with Jedward representing – came in at 19th, 46 points
UK – with Engelbert Humperdinck representing – 25th place, 12 points
No! So that’s it for Eurovision 2012! We look forward to seeing next year’s kooky acts. In the meantime, why not have a look at our special Eurovision playlist – perfect for swooning in our many London Karaoke Bars, Karaoke Restaurants and Karaoke Pubs!
Eurovision Grand Final tomorrow!
All around the Karaoke Network office, we’ve gone Eurovision crazy and, bickering about who we think will win it!
It’s out of these wonderful folks:
Ireland – Jedward – Waterline (they’re bouncy and Irish)
Italy – Nina Zilli – L’Amore È Femmina (She’s gorgeous, and the song’s pretty catchy, too)
Russia – Buranovskiye Babushki – Party for Everybody (Singing pensioners? What more do you need to know?)
Sweden – Loreen – Euphoria (We think this has potential to be big on the radio over Summer)
And lastly, UK – Engelbert Humperdinck – Love Will Set You Free (Come on UK!)
Whatever the outcome, this year’s Eurovision will be one to remember – speaking of which, check out our special Eurovision playlist: http://wp.me/pEm63-6z

Our Karaoke Queen Kylie In Hollywood?
Thanks to Kylie Minogue’s cameo in brand new Cannes film Holy Motors, the film is tipped to be the Festival’s favourite entry!
The French film – described as a “weird, bizarre and dream-like” adventure – will be the Australian songstress’ 15th film since the start of her career in 1989. A film about life, love and music, Holy Motors features Kylie in two roles.
But what does this all mean for our Karaoke Queen’s music career?!
We’ve got nothing to worry about, it seems, because the popstar managed to sing in one scene of the film – which is tipped to be a big hit for the popstar!
It’s impossible to imagine any good Karaoke venue without a few belters from Kylie – here in our London Karaoke Pubs, and London Karaoke Bars and London Karaoke Restaurants - we’ve been thinking up our favourite tunes from Kylie over her career. Get your heels on, because here’s our list of the best Kylie Karaoke Songs:
2 Hearts
All The Lovers
Aphrodite
Better Than Devil You Know
Can’t Get You Out Of My Head
Get Outta My Way
Giving You Up
Hand On Your Heart
I Believe In You
In My Arms
On A Night Like This
Put Yourself In My Place
Red Blooded Woman
Slow
Wow
On a night like this (see what we did there?!) who can resist grabbing a mic? Come on down to one of our Karaoke Bars and Pubs for a fantastic Karaoke Party and show Kylie how it’s really done!

Whitney Houston’s Final Song Released
Our Queen of 80′s feelgood-music Whitney Houston has left us with another musical gem, this time a duet with young singer-songwriter and American Idol winner Jordin Sparks.
Houston, who died in February, has been on our airwaves with her brand new single ‘Celebrate’ which also features Cee Lo Green for another funky track!
The upbeat song focusses on having a great time, forgetting your troubles and most importantly, boogying down! Sounds just like one of our typical Karaoke Parties in London!
