It''s the size of a slim, stylish DVD player, yet has 53,000 inbuilt kareoke songs.
For me, success means fulfilling in life whatever you feel you were born to do - whether its being kind to your family, a brilliant mum, fantastic kareoke singer or famous yachtswoman.
It ties in with the Japanese a little bit but there's a lot of kareoke bars in the US that are non-Japanese bars.
