If you don’t already know what SingStar is, read this editorial for a full explanation.

The first of the epic series, SingStar created a brand new genre and brought a new meaning to karaoke. In this version they did make a few vital mistakes, for instance the single player career mode and the somewhat silly inception of the multiplayer modes. All in all it’s a pretty decent song list that helps it move away from the one star rating.

Here’s the songlist:

a-ha - Take On Me
Liberty X - Just A Little
Mis-Teeq - Scandalous
The Darkness - I Believe in a Thing Called Love
Pink - Get The Party Started
Jamelia - Superstar
Motorhead - Ace of Spades
George Michael - Careless Whisper
Avril Lavigne - Complicated
Petula Clark - Downtown
Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Murder on the Dancefloor
Daniel Bedingfield - If You’re Not the One
Carl Douglas - Kung Fu Fighting
Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up
Westlife - World of Our Own
Ricky Martin - Livin’ La Vida Loca
Lemar - 50:50
Madonna - Like a Virgin
Roy Orbison - Pretty Woman
S Club - Don’t Stop Movin’
Deee-Lite - Groove is in the Heart
Sugababes - Round Round
Elvis - Suspicious Minds
Busted - Crashed the Wedding
Village People - YMCA
Good Charlotte - Girls and Boys
Blondie - Heart of Glass
Dido - Thank You
Atomic Kitten - Eternal Flame
Blue - One Love
Bill Withers - Ain’t No Sunshine

Because all the SingStar games are basically the same, the rating will be given for the songlist and the “enjoyablity” factor of the selection.

Pros: More songs to add to the collection.
Cons: Only 2/3 of the songs that we’re used to.
