Karaoke Forums

I just got my own home karaoke machine and I want to start a collection of CDG's. I'm looking for the version of Liza Minelli's "Cabaret" that includes the movie's verse "I used to have a girlfriend known as Elsie".

I do not want to buy one that has the shortened version. From what I was told at my local karaoke store, only Pocket Songs include the length of the song on the label. (the longer version would probably be about 3 1/2 mins long)

Can anyone help me find the right version?

many retailers (check out the site sponsors) have twenty second clips of the songs. look for reviews. karaoke.com does that!

Nevermind this post...I was wrong...I was thinking of the oringal version That liza actually sang ! Blonde moment!

So far, the only clips I've found are from the beginning of the song and don't give me a clue as to whether that verse is included. All I know so far is that the Pocket Song version is only 2 mins, 25 secs long, so that cannot be the right one.

Not sure at your local Karaoke store, but ours will let us demo a cd to see if it is the one you want.

The following disks have the verse you are looking for:

DK Karaoke- DKG95-03 - length 3:37... may be a hard disk to find though

All hits 2000- AH2010-12 - length 3:48

Sweet Georgia Brown- SGB050-03 length 3:57

good luck- tig

OMG!! thank you so much!! I realllllly appreciate the help, Tigrr.

And kjgreg, unfortunately, our local store just adopted a new policy where they no longer let you listen before buying.

no problem hun, glad I could help.. I ended up listening to about a dozen different manufacturers but those 3 seemed common enough to where you would be able to get ahold of them... hope ya enjoy singing it- tig

Well then. I spit on the your store

I hope tig helped you out...


off subject.

Call our local store to see if they stocked a certin disk. They said yes and I told them it would be a month before I get over to get it. Didn't say who I was, then there was a pause.........He asks is this Greg? I said yes and he then said We will just hold this for you the. WOW I thought, if i had been doing bussiness with them for atleast a few years I could see them doing this. But we haven't even been in bus for a year now and in the grand scheme of karaoke I have only spent a little bit of money with them. This store is the greatest.... Yes Im bragging on the store...

ok i'll quit typing now............

Hmmm.... you're obviously not in RI. Too bad. I'll keep looking for a better store.

BTW, I ordered the CDG that I wanted online and it was only $6.99 with NO shipping fee! How cool is that?? Sounds like this'll work fine for me, as long as it doesn't take a long time to get here.
