Karaokitis

Carry-oh-kite-us (n): a disease in which one can not control his or her ability to break out in song randomly or with just cause; much like turrets, only in musical form.

Don't get too close to her, I hear karaokitis is a communicable disease.

karaoke

An event that allows you to see that you don't know a song as well as you thought you did, esp. for verses.

Even though the words were right there on the screen, I just couldn't figure out how to sing "Dancing Queen" for karaoke.

karaoke

Singing accompanied by an instrumental soundtrack specifically made for "karaoke machines".

These soundtracks are usually songs in which the main melodic line has been removed (leaving ony the accompaniment intact.)

Karaoke is an agglutination of two Japanese words kara (empty) + oke (shortened version of okesutera/orchestra).

"Hey do you wanna go out for karaoke later?"
