*The karaoke performance ranking was compiled by www.uswitch.com based on materials from Spotify, YouTube, Google, and open data from several karaoke services.
Let’s take a closer look at the leaders by country, since not everyone loves the Eagles and their immortal hotel, which has been amicably opening its doors to guests for over 50 years. In general, the world has not strayed far from us in adoring the hits of the ’90s, but with one major caveat. Any fresh release, a catchy movie soundtrack, as well as an ancient blues track from the early 20th century, have every chance to fight for the top spots in the ratings even against such “monsters” as Queen.
