|| 1. Introduction ||
===============================================================================
Karaoke Revolution is an addicting, fast-paced karaoke game that stormed its
way onto the Playstation 2 console during the Holiday season in 2003. This
game features 36 songs including many recent top hits and some old favorites.
There is something in this game for people of all ages, whether you are a kid
looking for fun or an adult searching for memories.
The game includes different modes of gameplay, including a sort of story mode
known as Showtime where you go through 8 venues singing songs to advance and
become a star. There is also Arcade mode where you can choose the songs you
want to sing and which venue you want to sing it in. Also included is a
non-scored mode, a classic Karaoke mode for those who just want that pure
karaoke feeling. There are multiplayer modes as well for group fun.
This FAQ will explore all the modes of the game and include the song lyrics,
as well as information regarding the scores you can achieve in the game.
There will also be a list of the extras you can unlock, such as videos, new
songs and extra characters.

Coming with next update (hopefully): information about each mode and list of
songs for each venue in Showtime mode
=============
|A. Showtime|
=============
In Showtime mode, you must successfully complete at least one song in a venue
to continue. You win when you complete at least one song in each of the 8
venues. If you complete the songs with Gold or Platinum records you unlock
outfits for the characters, or unlock new characters. When you complete every
song with Gold or Platinum, you will unlock additional songs and videos.
Complete information on what you can unlock will be included in a later update.
Following is the list of what songs can be sung in each venue and their levels
of difficulty.

Showtime mode includes a Sound Check option where you can practice the song
before you perform it for a rating. This is useful when you don't know a song
and want to hear it before you sing it for real.
===========
|B. Arcade|
===========
In Arcade mode, you must successfully complete 3, (Beginner) 4, (Intermediate)
or 5 (Advanced) songs of increasing difficulty to win. As you complete rounds,
the difficulty level of the song you must perform may change. The following
table illustrates the difficulty of the songs you can choose in each round for
the different challenge levels in measure of Mics.
---------------------------------------------------
| Level | Beginner | Intermediate | Advanced |
|----------|------------|--------------|----------|
| Round 1 | 1 Mic | 1 Mic | 1 Mic |
|----------|------------|--------------|----------|
| Round 2 | 1 Mic | 1 Mic | 2 Mics |
|----------|------------|--------------|----------|
| Round 3 | 1 Mic | 2 Mics | 2 Mics |
|----------|------------|--------------|----------|
| Round 4 | ---------- | 2 Mics | 3 Mics |
|----------|------------|--------------|----------|
| Round 5 | ---------- | ------------ | 3 Mics |
---------------------------------------------------
In addition to the Challenge Level, you can also choose whether or not you
would like your last round to be random. Just set "Random Last Round" to on
or off, depending on your preference.
============
|C. Karaoke|
============
Karaoke mode is another way you can practice songs or sing without worrying
about what score or rating you get. This mode is also great if more than one
person wants to sing along to the song because you don't need to wear the mic
or worry about it picking up other voices, throwing off the reading the mic
registers. In Karaoke mode, you can choose to play in one of the 8 venues, or
you can choose "Full Screen Lyrics" mode, which will display the lyrics on the
entire screen with the Enormobowl as a background. Each phrase will appear
in succession as you must sing it, and the letters change from white to green
as they pass. The phrases appear exactly as they do in the other game modes.
=============
|D. Training|
=============
Training mode is a walkthrough of how to play the game. This section will be
a script of what the "instructor" says during the mode.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi. Welcome to Karaoke Revolution Training Mode. This is where you'll learn
everything you'll need to know to play the game. Before we begin, make sure you
plug in the headsetand put it on your head, with the microphone placed 1-2 cm
from your mouth. Ready? Let's check out the game. The object of Karaoke
Revolution is to sing the song exactly the way it was originally recorded. Let
me show you around a bit.
These blue bars are called Note Tubes. Note Tubes show the pitch and length of
each note you need to sing. The corresponding lyrics are displayed at the
bottom of the screen.
This is the Now Bar. When the notes and lyrics hit this bar, it's time for you
to sing.
The Pitch Arrow will show you the current pitch you're singing. You'll know
you're in tune when the pitch arrow lines up with the Note Tubes and the sparks
start flying. If the song is too high or low for you, you can sing one octave
lower or higher without losing points.
Let's try some singing. I'll play part of a song, and then I'll ask you to sing
it. Listen closely! You'll get a few chances to try what you've just learned.
Sing the lyrics as they reach the Now Bar. Ready? Go!
That's it, keep going!
Right on, great job!
Excellent, now let's move on!
Now I'll teach you about phrases. A phrase is one line of lyrics within the
song, like a musical sentence. This vertical line shows you where one phrase
ends and another begins.
This is called the Phrase Meter. The Phrase Meter will fill up as you sing the
notes correctly. At the end of every phrase, your performance will be rated.
Fill the Phrase Meter completely to get a Great! rating.
This is your current Score for the song. You'll get points at the end of each
phrase depending on how well you did.
The Crowd Meter displays how the crowd is reacting to your performance.
Careful! If the Crowd Meter drops down too low, you may get booed off the
stage. If you get the crowd excited enough, you'll get a score multiplier. If
you score Good or Great! on three [or more] phrases in a row, you'll start a
Combo. Continue getting Good and Great! ratings to keep the Combo going.
Keep an eye out for special Crowd Boost! phrases. If you sing this phrase well,
the crowd will go wild and the Crowd Meter will get a boost.
At the end of the song, you'll get a final score tally based on your
performance. If your score is high enough, you'll be awarded a Gold or Platinum
record. During the song, you can change the volume levels by holding the
Triangle, Circle, X or Square buttons and pressing the Directional Buttons.
Okay, are you ready for your final test? Sing this song and see if you can fill
up the Phrase Meter. You will be judged on your performance. Here we go!
That's it, keep going!
Right on, great job!
Wow, very impressive!
Congratulations! You've completed Training and you should be ready for
Showtime. Good luck!
===============================================================================
|| 4. Song Guide ||
===============================================================================
An asterisk (*) next to the song name means it must be unlocked before you can
sing it. These songs are available only in Arcade Mode.
"Top Score" is the maximum score you can get for the song (100% Great, 2x score
multiplier after 5th phrase in the Combo)
"Difficulty" is reflected by the number of microphones shown with the song
length and your High Score for the song in the song selection screen.
"Max Combo" is the highest combo you can achieve by getting all Good or Great
ratings for each phrase of the song.
Information on unlocking the 4 extra songs will be added in a later update.
Right now, the lyrics are straight from the instruction booklet [with the
exception of places where it says (Repeat Chorus)] but later I will be
splitting them up as they are in the game and I will note any discrepancies
I notice between the game itself and the booklet.
More detailed information will be included with the next update.

5. Billie Jean

Top Score: 50016
Difficulty: 3 (Hard)
Song Length: 4:51
Max Combo: 52
She was more like a beauty queen, from a movie scene
I said don't mind but what do you mean, I am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round
She said I am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round
She told me her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round
People always told me, be careful what you do
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
And mother always told me, be careful who you love
Be careful what you do, 'cause the lie becomes the truth, hey hey
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She said I am the one, but the kid is not my son
For forty days and for forty nights, the law was on her side
But who can stand when she's in demand, her schemes and plans
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round
So take my strong advice
Just remember to always thing twice, do think twice
She told my baby we'd danced 'til three, as she looked at me
Then showed me photos our baby cried, eyes looked like mine
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round baby
People always told me, be careful what you do
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
She came and stood right by me, just the smell of sweet perfume
This happened much too soon, she called me to her room, hey hey
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She said I am the one, but the kid is not my son
She said I am the one, but the kid is not my son
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She said I am the one, but the kid is not my son
She said I am the one, she says he is my son
She said I am the one
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover

Song Length: 3:42
Max Combo: 36
Every time I think of you
I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue
It's no problem of mine
But it's a problem I find
Living a life that I can't leave behind
There's no sense in telling me
The wisdom of a fool won't set you free
But that's the way it goes
And it's what nobody knows
While every day my confusion grows
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You'll say the words that I can't say
I feel fine and I feel good
I'm feeling like I never should
Whenever I get this way
I just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday
I'm not sure what this could mean
I don't think you're what you seem
I do admit to myself
That if I hurt someone else
Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You'll say the words that I can't say
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You'll say the words that I can't say
