Feeling under the clouds of this economic climate?
Time to sing your blues away.

Welcome to a world where everyone can be a star...
Blame it on the Golden Microphone Contest!

Charlie, proud owner of the May Sing Lounge, wants to reassert his status as the Karaoke King, while his son Elvis, a JC student & debate champion watches in horror.

His friend Lorraine can't seem to find the right words to finish writing her song, or get her boyfriend from Echoboys; Singapore's hottest boyband, to be more original.

Gigi, Teresa Teng's greatest fan, learns to face the greatest fear of his solitary life...with a mike.

Professor Aw Yeong, respected advisor to the National Council for Family Values, believes Karaoke to be the ideal medium for bringing the family together, unaware that her Disc Jockey son Eddie has a surprise in store for her.

Then there's Winston, a TV executive producer who's a "karaoke virgin"; Sam, a restless retiree with Tom Jones in his soul, and not forgetting Boh Gey, a toothless, luckless and tone-deaf "King" of Hokkien Pop.

Can our Electric Geisha help them find their own voice?
