About “Scared Of The Dark”
- Can I sing "Scared Of The Dark" karaoke-style with the lyrics on screen?
- Yes — Karaoke mode puts the lyrics of "Scared Of The Dark" on screen a line at a time and lights up each word in time, with a bouncing ball leading you word to word and the chord shown just above. The piano backing plays underneath in Ab, and you can transpose it to fit your voice.
- What key is the piano accompaniment for "Scared Of The Dark" by Steps in?
- The backing track is in Ab at 122 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones — the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.
- Can I sing over "Scared Of The Dark" with this accompaniment?
- Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.
- Is this a karaoke version of "Scared Of The Dark"?
- Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Scared Of The Dark", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
- Can I use "Scared Of The Dark" as a backing track for my instrument?
- Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work — the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.

- Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
- It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.
- Can I change the key of "Scared Of The Dark" to match my voice or capo?
- Yes. The original is in Ab, but the live transpose control shifts the whole song up or down semitones until the melody sits in your range (or maps to an easier guitar shape / capo position) — the on-screen chords and the backing move with it.
- Can I slow "Scared Of The Dark" down to learn the words and chords?
- Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
