How To Sing Any Song - Voice Lessons - Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy

[@FolarTheGreat]

One of the things I really like about your videos Ken is that you're able to do it all in one take. You see all these other "creatives" relying on the jump cut, and it drives me crazy. Your dedication to the single cut shows just how much expertise you bring to the subject of singing, and I'm a fan of what you do! Keep rocking always \m/

[@kentamplin]

Thanks, M-Ben! Not only is it a one take, but there is zero autotune. It troubles me that some vocal coaches say that autotune is the accepted norm and so therefore it's OK for vocal coaches to use artificial means to sing on-pitch! Really???

[@FolarTheGreat]

YESSS, auto-tune is even more infuriating >_< The world needs more singers (and TEACHERS) like you Ken!!

[@levelfourteen]

Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy pitch correction is the norm. Auto tune is the most popular form of pitch correction. If you take the top 20 songs on billboard almost all of them have some pitch correction or autotune. It makes a good singer great. You can make autotune not sound like the sound we associate with auto tune such as the cher effect or the tpain sound.

[@FolarTheGreat]

Was it the norm for Freddie Mercury? Or Dio? Or Ann Wilson? Just because something is popular or the current "industry standard" does not mean it should be used. And it certainly does not help make better music. Auto tune makes people lazy, and the music suffers because of it.

[@levelfourteen]

M-Ben Fowler​​​​​​ were talking about current day. Idc about Freddie Mercury. His time has come and passed. Great vocalist but music changes I doubt he'd be famous in this era making primarily rock music. Rock's not the musical juggernaut it once was. Because the people today have different taste. It doesn't mean it's better or worse it's strictly opinion not fact. I grew up listening to rock, pop and rnb from the 80s. Most of time i prefer current music today then 80s music with the exception of MJ. And that's my opinion it's not fact. I enjoy listening to today music over the past. It's your opinion that's auto tune is lazy and makes the music suffer is simply not fact. Your sounding like an old person complaining about music was better back in the day than the music people listen too today.

[@undeadman7676]

I recommend that everybody come back and watch this video at least once a month if you don't have a vocal teacher or Tamplin's singing course. This is probably his single most important video beyond the basics with breath support and all that. It's just such a nice concept that will almost immediately improve your singing if you ever feel you've hit a wall in your singing path. I've been working on a cover for Come What May from Moulin Rouge and I could not hit the highest note of the song for whatever reason. I sang the song with just vowels and I immediately figured out why I was splatting; my vowel modification was terrible. Such a good video, love love love.

[@kentamplin]

Thanks for the kind words, undeadman7676! You're right, this video contains PURE GOLD for those wise enough to recognize it when they see and hear it. This information, as well as an infinity more, is part of my singing course. This technique alone can unlock a lot of songs and help you to determine why you can't sing it in practical applications, yet you are capable of hitting the notes in scales and exercises. It's the consonants that mess you up, and the fact that you are trying to sing words instead of vowels. We sing on vowels. Consonants interrupt vowels. We break the song down into pure singing, and it gets much easier to see, hear, and feel what we are doing that is holding us back. I give information like this for free in hundreds of videos. If you get the course, all of this and much more is given with exercises and instructions, plus the moderators on my forums help my students to get to the next level by giving feedback on your progress if you are enrolled in my course.

[@revivalworship]

I love the fact that you're not afraid to demonstrate! You're obviously a great singer! Not all coaches are.

[@thumbody1]

I am a retired guitarist/musician who sang background vocals in cover bands for decades. I had some sinus surgery done in 2017 and it changed the resonance in my instrument. As a result of that I haven't really sang since then because nothing worked like it used to. I was never a great singer but was what I considered adequate. Ken, you are very inspiring. Enough so to make me want to learn to sing better. I write and record my own original material these days just for fun and I occasionally produce projects for others. I believe that knowing how to sing correctly would greatly improve my ability to communicate vocal nuances to other singers when working on productions.

Jennifer Harwood I think personally, you save more money (because time=$$) by having some help on that at least on occasion.

Oh man this was absolutely brilliant. As you go up and up, vowels, if you naturally let them, start to fade away, until you get to whistle voice and there’s no distinguishable vowel sound at all!

Awesome! kentamplinvocalacademy.com/

[@shanalive]

I also grew up with Bel Canto training and converting it to contemporary singing was something that you touched on in this video which resonated with me. Loving this.

[@catharinebyers243]

if he helps me carry a tune.. then he is a true Miracle man in my book Pretty Awesome🙏🏻

[@janitor6668]

sigh my vocals class teacher never tells us how to improve technique, she just tells us to sing with more emotion and gives tips not to be nervous SMH you’re a god tho

[@kentamplin]

Cauliii, you can always get good informatino about improving your vocals on my channel. Thanks for the kind words.

[@SG-ig2eu]

Leave her! You only get one chance to chase your dreams

[@meltedhoneymusic]

You need a new singing teacher

[@iamasonofgod91]

Cuz she doesn't know how to sing thats why...

[@joeswampdawghenry]

Practice... Practice.... Practice

[@amyhaych526]

Wow i was not expecting such a beautiful voice to cleanse my ears when that guy started singing, i could listen to him sing acapello all day ❤

[@bonjiek1981]

I love singing even though singing doesn't love me as much as I do lol! Well, I will just focus on my daughter. When she grow older I will let her watch your video Sir.

[@arleneportsmouth1263]

Oh and aaahhh, thanks for the clarification on those lyrics! I went my entire life thinking that the guy was singing; " saved an open Coors for an emergency ~~~" Thank God I never sang that one karaoke! (Kidding, I never sang karaoke)

[@tonidupont-mora1572]

LOL! That’s so funny! But I really like what you heard! Who knows! When traveling, when you might want or need an open Coors

[@shallowphatgal]

Bahaha! I thought it was "Set an open course for an emergency."

[@mariannesouza8326]

TONI DUPONT-MORA 😂👍🏼

[@beastshawnee4987]

I thought it was “set an open course for a merging sea”. Until today!

[@flesheffigy875]

Don't let this guy fool you, you were exactly right. Coors is the official beer of Styx. Aiiiiii swaaaaayaaaaaa eeeee aaaaiiiirr

[@Elysianshadows]

This... is incredible. You are a talented vocalist and a talented, passionate teacher. I'm a computer engineer who always wanted to learn how to sing and has been kind of trying to learn on the side, and I really appreciate these videos.

[@kentamplin]

Awesome to hear from you, Elysian Shadows! I'm glad these videos are helping you! 😊

[@StackBrains]

Internet is so small Falco

[@lifeisimportantkate]

Thanks for this free lecture. You explained succinctly to the point. When I was a teenager our music teacher did not teach us like this. She will ask us to sing DOH RAY ME....... She will walk around and tap us on the shoulder. After she would say all those that I have tapped go back to class. Meaning our voices were not up to scratch. This was how she chooses the school choir.

[@libertyapuan7998]

My grand daughter are learnings techinique from you.. And she's only 5 years old.. Thank you ken

[@kentamplin]

Awesome!

[@Wormwoodification]

This makes singing higher notes so much easier. I'm kinda floored. 💛

[@kentamplin]

Happy to hear that!

[@justinecruz1309]

Hello sir, I really do learn a lot from this video. I also realized that I tend to force my voice singing the vowels and it strains my vocal chords. I applied the technique and I see changes with it. It lessens the strain and I can sing higher notes now with lesser problems. Thanks a lot! You're a genius. By the way I'm from the Philippines.

[@ROBTRATE]

I really would like to thank you for all you do! It helps so many of us who want to learn better techniques...love this channel! Thank you Ken!!!!!

[@wes2118]

Even if I don't learn how to sing, your method comes across as cool and fun

[@kentamplin]

It is fun, Wes One, but you should learn to sing!

[@MrModi420]

Lets appreciate this legend for replying to comments even after 4 years!

[@kentamplin]

👍😀

[@lydiakarani6978]

[@manuelojeda9144]

As a Pianist myself I love Bel Canto. I sang in the University Choir, but I struggled with staying with my tenor line.

[@GabrielCanda-zn1zq]

I've been watching ken's videos and my vocal range is improving thanks to this man

[@TheFredismShow]

This is really fascinating. I had no prior knowledge about vowel shapes and air flow through the mouth. You really show that the voice is an instrument to be mastered with practice. Thank you. 😊

[@kentamplin]

Fred Herrman - You are welcome!

[@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823]

Fred Herrman I've been singing like 30 years, and never much thought about it in an intellectual manner. I'd say, "Don't pronounce things too sharply, it takes the feel away." Example: America. We can't say "All-e-ga-tor lizards in the air..." because it's distracting. You blend the letters together more, like you do if you speak the language natively.

[@sunshine3914]

I suspect you have to have knowledge of phonics in order to understand. I don’t know, since I was taught to read from memory, not pronunciation.

[@sarahnjenga7036]

Wow.. Just landed to this Amazing class.. yes it's 2020🤓 and I ain't leaving... camping Here🤗 till I get it right. Learning so much. Thank you

[@kentamplin]

😊

[@jimmyaskelius]

Wow! Really impressed! I've just started to learn how to sing and your expertise and tips are awesome! Thank you Ken😊

[@kentamplin]

Thanks, Jimmy!

[@evandavies2788]

Never have I heard of such succinct and clear solution to leading to sing. I can sing nonsense because I kinda do what you do but never knew how to lead my focus. I can sing opera notes to rock highs but not all the words like I should. Where have you been ? I will follow U 2 the sounds of music… God bless U mentor …

[@nataliandlovu3155]

I don’t know how I found him. I don’t know what made me click on this video. But I’m in love. You really helped me grow and improve what I love

[@kentamplin]

So glad you found me!! Happy you are here.

[@BakeLikeAPro]

Hi Ken, just came across your channel today. Wow... you're a superb teacher ! So impressed with *how* you teach ! 👍😊 So glad that Dennis DeYoung is still going strong in 2019 ( 3 years after you filmed this ) He is so phenomenal isn't he. Pure talent. BTW, like recipes, vocal lessons just never get old, and that there is magic ! Thanks again Ken !

[@kentamplin]

Glad to have you here, BlakeLikeAPro!

I purchased the KTVA Course+Pro-Packs about 6 months ago. I am very pleased with this purchase. I recommend if you are on the decision-fence, do it. I know the price seems high, but you are getting a LOT in this course. The course is packed with very detailed and informative videos and audio. I have 55 years of life experience, and I believe Ken does an incredible job of explaining the information. I'm a Rock guitar player and have always wanted to sing. There are about 5 videos just for diaphragmatic breathing, this is difficult to understand at first, Ken explains/demonstrates this several ways to get this understood. Throughout the course he also consistently "repeats/reminds" on very important aspects. Here are my words of advice for this, if you get this course ......... "Listen" to EVERY word he says, and DO everything he says.

[@kentamplin]

Excellent, Richard! I am really proud of your accomplishment! Rock on!
