About โThe Impossible Dreamโ
- Can I sing "The Impossible Dream" karaoke-style with the lyrics on screen?

- What key is the piano accompaniment for "The Impossible Dream" by Andy Williams in?

- Effectively yes โ it's the piano-only backing for "The Impossible Dream", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
