Want to suggest a song? Here's the need-to-know!

On a daily basis Karaoke Version gets loads of requests to produce new songs. We do our best to bring you exactly what you are looking for and to date, we’ve been able to fulfil over 75,000 of those requests! But what is the process? How are requests chosen and which are produced first?

Here is everything you need to know about requesting a song on Karaoke Version.

How do I request a song?

Simple, request it on our suggestions page. By doing so, you’ll open it up to other Karaoke Version users to cast their vote for it. This will also sign you up to be notified by email when it does become available.

What happens with the requests?

Each request is counted as a vote. The songs that receive the most votes are produced in priority.

How do I know where my song ranks in number of votes?

You’ll see the songs ranked in order of votes on the song suggestion page.

What if the song has already been requested?

Add your vote! The more votes the more likely the song will be produced by our studios !

What if only one version exists?

If only the Vocal Backing Track exists and you are wanting the Custom Backing Track or the karaoke version, you’ll notice a yellow box on the song page titled “Request…” By clicking here, you’ve just added your vote and signed up to be alerted by email when the song is produced.

How do I know when a song becomes available?

If you’ve added your vote or activated an alert, you will receive an email with a link to the song page to get it when it becomes available. Otherwise, you can keep track of our production calendar and follow the songs that are in production and those that have recently been completed. For information, you can also follow the songs you voted for on the My Votes page and even sign up to follow an artist and be alerted when any of the artist's songs become available.

How long does it take for a song to be produced?

Production time depends on many factors (the complexity of the original version, number of instruments, season and timing like Christmas etc.). On average this takes four to eight weeks. Please be patient and rest assured that we are doing our best to provide you with your requests as soon as possible.
