Various Artists - Sing (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) (Karaoke Edition) - CD

Kids are enjoying this cd.

As a professional KJ or Karaoke Jockey who works in the industry let me explain to those who are complaining that there are no lead vocals in these tracks why that is so: Karaoke Versions are almost never the original artist tracks... most karaoke is released by separate companies that specialize in the production of Karaoke and/or backing. These companies pay thousands of dollars PER SONG for these rights and licenses and pay to reproduce the music. In the case of This release though it is a unique situation Universal Music the copyright holder and label have decided to create and distribute this soundtrack as a karaoke release on their own meaning that there is no 3rd party music producer of a karaoke track and these tracks are the master tracks of the original music not reproductions by others, but they have not mastered these to include the lead vocals as this defeats the purpose of karaoke... This release does not include a guide vocal track as some general release karaoke CD+G does with a disc that include 2 versions of the song one the Karaoke track meaning instrumental usually including the backing vocals but NO lead singer Though unique this release is not the only “official” karaoke release to come out by the original copyright holder or label… Big Machine Records has to date (up to the release of Reputation as of Oct 2017) released every album that Taylor Swift has done as both a full release and CD+G/DVD karaoke release… as well as Capitol releasing Luke Bryan's Greatest Hits Vol. 1 as an original release and CD+G/DVD karaoke as well… all these releases are strictly karaoke versions with no option for lead vocals or lead guide vocals. I suspect that they do not release these as a 3 disc set as CD (Original), CD+G/DVD (karaoke) so that they make money off fans buying both release versions.
