If you like a song and want to sing it in your own voice then you need to get the karaoke version of that song. The Karaoke version is just the song without any vocals.
Before doing all the hard work you should also search on youtube to find the karaoke version of that song. If you don’t find it there then you need to create the karaoke version of that song on your own.
