Any of the fancy voice analysis the game might be scoring you on has been hidden, leaving you to focus on the big, bold lyrics on screen. Playing Karaoke is as easy as finding a song to sing.

Fortunately, the catalog contains several TV theme songs perfect to keep in your queue for those last few minutes. Also, you canвЂ™t slide in one more five-minute ballad if you donвЂ™t have five minutes of time left. The time you buy is always counting down, so be ready to sing for at least two hours or lose some minutes. There arenвЂ™t as many subcategories on the app as in the game, but being able to dig into the catalog while someone is singing maximizes your time and money. You can also view the lyrics to brush up on songs like вЂњItвЂ™s the End of the World as We Know ItвЂќ before they start. ItвЂ™s a little clunky on my first-gen iPad (via the SmartGlass app), but you can navigate the whole catalog and songs in the queue with a couple of taps. Using a controller works fine, but Karaoke is one place where Xbox SmartGlass really shines. Even better, all of this can be accessed onscreen while someone is singing, and all songs get plopped into a queue that you can jump into from almost anywhere. The catalog is also pretty easy to browse through with categories for genres, latest additions, and the top 100 songs. The search function works well with a snappy autocomplete that starts showing you songs and artists right away. This gives you immediate access to every song in the catalog, and even on my midrange consumer Internet, it never felt like I was wasting time waiting for things to load. The cheapest is a two-hour block that costs 240 Microsoft Points ($3.00) with stops at six ($5) and 24 hours ($10). Rather than charging per song or for вЂњtrack packsвЂќ in Karaoke, you pay for hourly chunks of time like you would at an actual karaoke bar. That leads to the other interesting aspect of Karaoke: how you pay. ThereвЂ™s no marketplace to fumble through or downloads to queue up because it streams all the songs as you choose them.

Developer iNiS has teamed up with the Karaoke Channel to offer a library of over 8,000 songs to sing with new additions and free tracks rotated in daily. ThatвЂ™s one of the reasons I was excited to try out MicrosoftвЂ™s latest stab at karaoke, the free app simply called Karaoke (released for Xbox 350 on Dec.
