As students flooded the Marketplace on Tuesday, Jan. 29, they were also flooded with karaoke tunes as they dined.
Toner Sound from Aston, Pa. was in Cabrini’s marketplace for the second time playing songs we all know and love to sing with. Anyone who wanted to could sing a song of their choice as students ate their dinner and watched.
Songs such as “No One” by Alicia Keys and “Hero” by Mariah Carey were sung by a variety of students as the lyrics were shot onto a screen for everyone to sing along.
Junior elementary/special education major Whitney Ford and Junior English major Siobhan Hurd sang *NSYNC’s “Bye Bye Bye” together. “We wanted to do a fun song,” said Ford. Though Hurd said Whitney forced her to do it, they still had a good time and were happy to entertain everyone.
The emcee on hand went by the name “V” and had been a disc jockey for 12 years before he began doing karaoke around five years ago.
“It’s fun and it keeps me social,” said DJ “V.” He has traveled up and down the East coast and has even entertained local colleges such as Villanova and St. Joe’s.
“It’s fun. You get loose and show off your personality,” said Jahlil Edwards, a freshman marketing major and additional performer.
