　　The Japanese like parties.From ancient times, a party becomes enlivened (活泼) when someone starts singing and others keep applauding.Having such a custom, the Japanese can easily sing in front of others without feeling embarrassed.This seems to be one of the reasons that karaoke has been largely accepted in Japanese society.

　　It is now widely recognized that the use of karaoke started at a snack bar in Kobe City,

　　one of the three biggest cities in Japan.It is said that when a guitarist could not come to perform at the bar due to illness,

　　the owner of the bar prepared tapes of accompaniment recordings, and people enjoyed singing to the tapes.

　　It was at that time that karaoke appeared.Holding a microphone and singing a song to the accompaniment of an “orchestra (管弦乐队)”， you can feel like a professional singer.For soldiers living in a stressful society, there is no other entertainment activity that can make them feel so refreshed.
