You have a natural talent for effective teaching, very calming.

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

Thank you so much!

[@Darlagayle]

I agree!

[@watermelonsugar9734]

totally agreed!

Madeleine Harvey how do you sing better faster?

[@OhAtropa]

when u have a light and bubbly voice and you want to sing metal,,,

[@chaimaeairod1333]

OMG you are just such a professional , its so easy to follow you and your talks seem so sincere and honest , please keep on helping us and thank you so much :)

[@andrewderosa6437]

Your the first singing teacher that actually makes any sense. Thank You. I have a lower register. Am exploring ways to make it come alive. It's hard when you can't keep up with the others, but I also know I can go where few others can go, just need to neatly package it up with a new angle, but also with music I like.

[@josephine5782]

Do you do singing lessons in in real life and not just in videos? If you don't, you really should. You're an excellent teacher! I've improved so much by discovering your channel!

[@aleyahmalone5012]

KZbin has been my therapy tbh

[@skyfall3790]

That's umfair my voice depends on which laguage I speak.

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

+Sky Fall For sure! I speak Swedish and I'm currently learning Russian....My voice completely changes depending on the language because of the shapes that the languages encourage in my mouth and throat. I'm sure you sound awesome no matter what language you speak!

[@skyfall3790]

Madeleine Harvey Ok thanks I keep this in my mind

[@valentinkhomuteno6825]

+Madeleine Harvey Как успехи с изучением русского?

[@lisae9174]

Wow that's so cool, I'm from Sweden!! How come you speak Swedish? Btw you're an amazing vocal coach!

[@akechijubeimitsuhide]

Singing in different languages certainly changes you a bit. German, for example, makes me focus on trying to pronounce everything clearly and stress less about technique. Whereas in Italian it's all "breathing. legato. focusssss" :D

[@mattmallecoccio8378]

I honestly have done so much mimicking that it seems that my voice has gotten lost in the mix, and I don't know, but I think there should be a part deux in which actually practicing the unique voice without listening to the other artists is in the lesson.

[@TheSpookychick]

I just hate the sound of my voice, and I can't belt as well as I'd like to. I love rock music, and a lot of rock singers belt and shout. I'm a soprano, and I don't think my voice has that rock sound, you know? When I speak my voice is low and kind of raspy at times, too. (I'm 17, btw.)

[@ForeverCellist]

This was really interesting and informative. I've always had a lower voice for a girl, even when I was little (my aunt said I had a smoker's voice LOL). I sort of developed a complex about it, and in recent years it hit me that I had literally started intentionally making my voice higher when I spoke, so my natural voice is actually a bit lower than the voice I use to speak day-to-day. It sort of varies based on how comfortable I am around someone, I guess? I'm trying to embrace my lower voice now though!

[@MrBarishnikov100]

Very interesting. I like your mischievous look. Thanks for the information.

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed this video!

[@Rosieriva13]

You are amazing! as a natural belter learning how to do it right, you just saved my life! And your make up is amazing

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

Thanks Rosie!!! I'm so glad you liked it!!

[@libertyfighter1]

in my short musical journey , i have found singing in rhythm is very , very important , I taken lessons from several voice and guitar instructors ..none of them stressed , the importance of playing or singing in a rhythmic time signature , I found practice rhythm . improve that and you will sound so much better and have more fun , most songs are the basic 4/4 timing ..if your off tempo does not matter how great your voice is you won't sound right . get on time makes you sound a lot better .... practice 1, 2 3, 4 , 1,2,3,4 and make variations of it google , practice rhythm there lot of way to skin that cow ...... great teaching Madeleine I like your video,s

[@clairedion5725]

As far as I am concerned you are the best! Clear instructions, exercises that work and it works! thank you so much

[@charlielinnell]

I loved this video! As you mentioned about modeling other artists, it's important to try other singers sounds in order to know what kind of singing technique you prefer. But somehow, I find it challenging to find inspiration from female artists for my low singing voice.. Have someone asked this before or is it just me? :3 Thanks for sharing your lesson! :)

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

Charles Linnell HI There!! I'm so glad you enjoyed this video! I think it's important to surround yourself with really great music! Especially when you're exploring your own authenticity. I find that having exposure to many different artists will only add to the complexity of what you can do. I oftentimes hear from female singers that it's difficult to find models for lower voices. But it all depends on where you look. Unfortunately, there are not alot to choose from in current mainstream music. BUT there are LOTS of really amazing women who own their lower voices in music. (I'm not sure what your genre of choice is, or your vocal classification.) But here are some of my favorite earthy female singers. Toni Braxton, Keisha Cole, Etta James, Diana Krall,Eva Cassidy, Amy Whinehouse,Adel, Tina Turner, Annie Lennox,Fiona Apple,Tracy Chapman, Nina Simone,Kd Lang, Bonnie Rait,Brandi Carlile, Doria Roberts, Talullah Bankhead. I know I'm still forgetting some, but I hope this little list will get some inspiration going for you. Have fun!!

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

Madeleine Harvey OH, Melissa Etheridge, Janis Joplin, Ella Fitzgerald, Terri Clark, Natalie Merchant, Joan Osborne, Stevie Nicks, Pat Benatar, Heart.

[@charlielinnell]

Madeleine Harvey Thank you for the reply and also for your artist suggestions! Some of them are not at all familiar so I will do some research! :) Finding artist inspiration has been my mission for a long time so this video and your comments helped a lot. :)

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

Charles Linnell You are most welcome! Thanks for watching! :)

[@DigititalPhantasm]

+Madeleine Harvey Love your channel! I struggle with that too! I feel very out of place singing cos my voice is very dark and deep. I feel it's unexpected like my voice doesn't match my face. It makes me afraid to perform to others cos I'm expecting the first response to be bafflement and bemusement. It's sort of a weird problem. I can sing along to male singers way more easily than female singers. I've always wondered if that means I'm doing something wrong but my voice just feels way more comfortable in the deep end. Can you please do a video for deep female singers! Thank you for your videos.

[@mikrofonias.]

you just honestly make me happy

[@maheshkandana]

the greatest teacher i have come across..

[@andjo2]

Great! Very positive and useful :)

[@ladytn3052]

I love your style of teaching! I've always loved to sing, but never quite knew my style. Your videos are such a great help.

[@c.b.swartz4246]

I find your personna refreshing in today's entertainment world and your teaching style stimulating and effective. I first watched the videos because my daughter has a Karaoke business and she wanted me to sing. Although I come from a musical family, I'm not a singer, so I thought I might get some help so as not to embarass myself too much. I find them so interesting I'm stiil watching.

[@tamecamoody5500]

Can you do a vid on singers diet; food/drink? Please!!!!

[@VIDEOHEREBOB]

As I think back, I have always naturally gravitated towards challenging songs. I believe this helped me to become a better singer. There was requisite range and power you just had to muster up to do the songs justice. You had to put yourself and your voice in a place to sing them.

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

VIDEOHEREBOB Sure! Isn't that the amazing experience of music? Whatever the music invokes within is what needs to be expressed. Some people like music that takes them to a calm place, and their voices reflect that. I've always enjoyed singing songs that I can sink my teeth into. Songs that will bring me right to the edge of what I think I am capable of, both emotionally and vocally and then catapult me right over that edge into a whole new place of self discovery. Yummy!

[@VIDEOHEREBOB]

Madeleine Harvey Yes, I relate. I always find myself singing those "you did me wrong, and I can't do anything about it" songs..lol!!

[@nobodyyouknow8034]

You are such a blessing I am learning from each and every one of your videos things that I I have never learned from anyone else. Thank you so much for your time and selflessness to reach out to others. Love to sing but just don't know how you're a blessing God bless you

[@chelseadaley9770]

You have a great natural voice and such a great special person

[@zenmusic2866]

Way of teaching is amazing. I'd love to be a student

[@tphil5543]

Hi Madeleine, Thank you this is my first time with you. I need this right now in my growth. My unique voice, and the categories of singers, Thank you

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

Welcome to my musical family!!

[@diyag6901]

Excellent way of teaching

[@popcornmaskinen84]

it's just a blast watchin your videos without doing the exercises :P hahaha ^^ great material, i love to sing, i dont have enough funds to keep on paying for my vocal coachings :/ so ill stick to youtube yet again ! :P

[@LearnRomanianWithCorina]

Hi, Madeleine. I just wanted to thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. Of all the videos I've watched on music topics I identify with your style so far. It seems that I really needed to listen to what you're saying. And, by the way, your overall style is very stylish. Thank you once again. Best wishes from Romania.

[@SportyOtterPop]

I like very much how you explain the topics. You are absolutely clear and understandable, for a total novice. Not everyone is a good teacher, but you certainly are.

[@catkingh]

I model all the time and it really helps

[@onlinewritingcourse]

mine is deep and dark as a woman. I find it easier to sing old fashion blues like by Billy holiday and others. your lesson has cleared up things. I am a dark moody personal, I'm laid back and surprising witty at times. now I know why I feel connected to blues singing

Thanks a lot, this is very helpful. i was really struggling to find out how my voice works. Also the Tip about Reading out loud, i dont talk much to other people and had never thought of that. Thank you.

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

You're welcome! I'm glad you liked this video! Yes, speaking is a great way to build your singing voice. It's also a fantastic way to get comfortable hearing your own voice and projecting it with ease in the room.

[@codeNameMoose907]

Madeleine! WOW!! THANK YOU so much for your exceptionally helpful and inspiring videos. You are truly a very genuine person and it's been fun to watch and play along. Im traveling abroad, but once I return home to the States, I would be honored to take online lessons from you if you are taking on new students. I feel joyfully overwhelmed at how to best approach a (non career) singing endeavor. Thanks again, Madeleine!!

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

Hello! And welcome to my musical family! Be safe and have a wonderful time abroad! When you are ready to begin lessons, feel free to contact me through my website at www.MadeleineHarvey.com I look forward to hearing you sing!

[@natasha9852]

hi ! im from Malaysia . I have trouble in singing with emotions . i'm a songwriter , people can feel what i wrote , but once i started to sing , they said they can only hear a girl singing with nice voice but no emotion. In other word, they could not feel wat i'm trying to deliver while i sing.I will be recording my first single soon and my producer expects me to do well in the recording sesion. I really hope you can reply to my comment ! thank you :)

[@UhtredOfBamburgh]

When I'm singing to CD albums in the car I really sound good with some artists' music and others I can't sing to it at all. David Bowie is a real mixed-bag of success/failure his songs/voices are so different from one another

My problem is just.. sounding like everyone else. I feel like if I sing like everyone else there isnt a point in singing besides my own comfort.

[@lunar_wolfflowers]

I think I might need some techniques from you coz whenever I sing in group, my voice sounds different and not really go along with the group that much...that's what I always notice. So, do you have any techniques?

[@GauravBanerjee310799]

i am a tenor....and i like singing songs of rock metal genres.....i also record my voice several times to find a nich....and i think i am close by....but nowadays even having a nitch....every singer sounds the same(as rumors are going).....i just mean a kind of uniqueness....so i have found my voice....but not that uniqueness...or you can just say....a kind of style....

[@gabyduarte8774]

I really enjoyed your video; the points you make are so simple yet profound! I have always known my speaking voice to be a bit deep, and whenever I attempted to sing like a higher-pitched singer that it never sounded quite right.

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

+gabriela duarte Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked the video! I LOVE lower voices! Especially in female singers...I perceive so much depth of emotion and soul within the sound that is really a different experience entirely with higher singers. It's like comparing chocolate to popcorn. (Different tastes.) I can't wait to hear your low voice! Lots of love!

[@annafromhsm]

I have a Halsey-ish voice; it's raspy and alto, but my voice is less airy than hers when she sings.

[@Sunnywonda]

Is it complex to learn singing? Most of my problems now is my larynx which is active when singing because I usually for years talk from there (throat) and am a beginner head voice singer who just entered into chest voice singing so I’m having trouble controlling where the air flows. I also noticed when I would sing and record it my voice sounded terrible and panicked. I cried because I thought my music life was a waste and I was laughed at for thinking I was good when I wasn’t. It’s only been a few months since some singing and I can say I have improved but it feels like it’s gonna take forever.

[@blazingmewtwo]

Hello, may I ask a question? If you don't mind me asking

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

Sure!

[@blazingmewtwo]

Madeleine Harvey I love to sing, but I have some trouble. My voice wants to do certain things, but it feels restricted, and I don't really enjoy the way my voice sounds. It sounds like I am talking when I sing. Any tips, please? =)

[@blazingmewtwo]

And I've also written my own music, but I can't sing them as well as I'd like to.

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

It's ok. We are all works in progress. I would say, get as comfortable as you can with the feeling of openness. Make it a point to practice this feeling of openness as often as you can. The voice is totally controlled by the nervous system. This means that if there is ANY habitual tensions in our body, it is going to impact the voice and how it feels. Don't underestimate the awesome power of relaxation. Be curious with your minds eye too..focusing in on certain places such as your throat, the root of your tongue, your belly, your chest...etc. Sigh out some easy sound while you pick a part of your body such as your throat to relax. As you relax and you sigh out the sound, notice how the more you relax, the more free the sound. This relaxing business is probably one of the hardest things to do with signing, because is requires that we pay attention to our body and it's sensations. But it is the foundation for which your entire voice rests. I hope this helps! Happy Singing!

[@blazingmewtwo]

+Madeleine Harvey Thank you

[@mina-hs6br]

I can't figure out what my voice is, I have a British accent and I slight lisp, and my voice isn't very deep but also not very soft. I feel like I talk from my body and not nose or throat. So with all that being said, what do you think my voice type is?

[@watermelonsugar9734]

[@diyag6901]

Hii, it's really useful

[@mikejaques6573]

what happens when you naturally sound like someone else. and use that person to learn from. I sound very much like Johnny Mathis that is how i discovered him. I do not have the sound of say Rod Stewart I really like him too but I sound nothing like him,, but I sound very close to Mathis who I love as well. So is it okay to just as you say play in his sand box and stay there? thanks

[@MadeleineHarveyVoice]

+amirul yunus That's totally ok! Every singer goes through this...(I have many many many times.) The trick is to not get so wrapped up in the "sound." That may seem counterintuitive, but remember, your voice is supposed to reveal how you feel. Try to pivot your focus away from the sound into the quality of the physical or emotional experience. When you practice this enough, you will feel amazing when you sing, and you won't be so concerned with what others may think..(That goes for yourself as well.) check out this video of mine about confidence.. I hope this helps! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bYfNfalsjtpqa6c Good luck on your upcoming competition!
