[@katierose8240]

Thanks, Kerri! Im a 12 year old and i want to be a singer when I'm older so thank you for helping me out. ☺🎤

[@VIDEOHEREBOB]

Outstanding! Great advice Kerri. May I also add the importance of avoiding a monotone speaking voice. Add inflection to your speaking voice and vary the volume. Bob

[@Jkayb3]

Kerri - I'm SO happy I found this channel! You're fabulous and these tips are so helpful and more on the holistic side which is what I'm all about. I'm a reflexologist but also professional singer and aerobics instructor. I am trying to really improve my vocal health and my daily routine to keep those muscles warm and in shape - love your videos!

[@KerriHo]

+Jaclyn Dixon - what wonderful feedback - thank you so much!

[@billharris3090]

[@songs4theseasons587]

Hi Kerri, Thank you for the good tips and techniques! Your "bubbly" style and positive personality and energy are very encouraging!

[@DrewDPoole]

Awesome tips! You're so genuine and bubbly with your advise!

[@m.c.6933]

YOU ARE FREAKING AWESOME

[@mlaster2]

This is the BEST advice about this subject that I have received ! thank you !!!! Honey and tea is my favorite lubrication for my voice ! and herbal tea is also my favorite to use ! I have camomille, leamon zinger and rasberry and with each use I always have honey before I warm up and sing. And have lubricated vocals have done wonders for my tone.

[@LiamDent]

Some excellent advice here. Well delivered and well edited. 10 out of 10.

[@KerriHo]

+Liam Dent - Thank you so much!

[@joddiharriz6616]

+Liam Dent After trying for several years to learn to singer I found Bens Singer Blog and this appears to be the best home study system (check it out on google)

[@littlepenguin1039]

I am opsessed of your movies

[@viviennecoley8825]

Thaaaaaaaaaaaank You so much for this. I found it and loved it. I have decided to market my voice to do voice overs and jingles, this video is perfect as step one for me.

[@hikkipedia]

Very good tips! Definitely avoid grease and dairy before singing. I have seasonal allergies for almost half the year and find that having water on head with lemon slices in it helps remove the phlegm from the throat while singing.

[@Rosannasfriend]

thanks for sharing this! I'll watch it when I'm ready.

[@Musicmansladiesband]

HI Kerri this is Kellie from Music Mans Ladies Band. I'm still fairly new at singing but your tips are so interesting and so helpful. Thank you for these gems that you are passing along! Keep them coming! Thanks again!

[@shivamkansal3869]

thank you so much your tips are really very helpful to me. i really liked the way you tell about each and every technique and tip. and ya you are really very...beautiful.

[@KerriHo]

Thank you so much Shivam! =)

[@chelssyshop]

Thank you for this tip I always have a problem for singing on SMULE. THANK YOU A LOT THIS WILL HELP ME

[@TheKerkof]

I like your lessons.Thank's a lot.

[@annarees2593]

Hey Kerri! I love how helpful and free your videos are. At my high school, we put on a lot of musicals, and while we're not a drama school, we take drama very seriously. Other school groups even come to watch us perform. But the people who get the lead roles are always really strong singers, who have had singing lessons for years. I am really good at acting but not good at singing (quite bad actually). It has been my ambition for years to be able to sing with a really good strong voice, but I can't afford singing lessons. Will it ever be possible to be a good singer purely by watching these videos? Thanks so much xxx

[@davidswanson8459]

Thank you for the advice!

[@seyramist]

Thank you so much Am gonna try it I have liked and subscribed too 🙏🏾

[@pedromejia8997]

[@KerriHo]

Thank you Queensley!

[@hishamtawfik1742]

Thanks alot ur way to teaching is outstanding ^^

[@rahulswami6304]

will warm up is gonna improve my voice .

[@KerriHo]

+loveyaself! - Yes! It's absolutely important to warm up your voice before singing, just like a runner does stretches before he runs. When your vocal cords are warmed up, stretched and feeling flexible and nimble, singing feels better AND sounds better!

[@iluvsinging2]

This helps me so much! Thank you :)

[@KerriHo]

Glad to hear it :)

[@nanonadouse7719]

[@marianperez96]

[@BabyBat14]

Gosh, you're the best! I already knew about the greasy and dairy food...I'm a singer (well, I'm still learning, of course)...Btw, thanks for the herbal tea tips. I love teas and this was a very good tip ♥ You're videos help me improve my singing everyday! Thank you!

[@sarafilipalaia]

What would you recomend to replace the water with lemon ? And the pepermint tea? Because I have GERD and I can not eat those things

[@krisfarrow4399]

Caffeine free teas with slippery elm, licorice, marshmallow root- such as Traditional Medicinals Throat Coat, Yogi Throat Comfort, Dr. Stuart's Throat Doctor, etc. Also gargling (and drinking) pure aloe gel such as Lakewood Organics.

[@nicolemassoud1318]

very helpful!

[@JitskeTrijntje]

Thanks very much: don't harm warm fluids? I read, heard somewhere that warmth is agitating and not 'cooling'down the vocal cords??

[@jierrahgraham2422]

Thaaaaanks!!!!

[@karmastrikes1754]

Hi kerri do you have any videos or tips that could help me sing to higher register...

[@despairingleonardo]

the icon seems really beautiful and the filming is good

[@KerriHo]

Thanks!

[@Bob430E]

I like the honey, warm wutah and a lemon squeeze. True

[@voldemort6604]

Hey, Kerri I want you to please please please‼ make a video on How to sing ALREADY HOME BY A GREAT BIG WORLD, Can you please ☺♪♫♥

[@King20176]

what about energy drink id it ok ?

[@isabelleheadlee909]

Hey Kerri I love your videos you have helped me soo so much could you maybe do a video on how to sing A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes from Disney's Cinderella? I'm in this show and I play Cinderella but it's higher than movie it starts on a D and it's hard for me to sing because it's around my breaking point and it's hard because I can't sing it too loud because my character is softer so I can't like belt the song. Also Normally I don't get nervous on stage but because its hard to sing for me I get nervous and mess up. I would love it if you could help me with this! 😊

[@jannahsohaimi]

Ure the best internet social voice coach evaa! Many thanks :)) keep on making videos!

[@johnroldanfaburada7743]

i love your smile..

[@dr.oxygentekseng8062]

haha like the intro evaa evaaa evaaaa every😁 grt jobs👍

[@gohanspace]

Could this work for Metal / Deep and highs/?

[@danielpatrickrussell]

yeah man, probably even more so, as metal is pretty taxing on the chords depending on what sort of grit and growl you're adding

[@TessieDobey]

I don't understand why singers smoke and do other things that screw up their voice.

[@HeinousDC]

So my voice has been severely lacking the past few weeks and I've been trying to get to the source of the problem. I recently started drinking Arizona brand Green Tea recently, and I drink one almost every day. Could this be the source of my problem? Is there anything else I should be looking out for?

[@jillianwardx]

Maybe you're not practicing everyday, you should warmup everyday.. Goodluck! ❤️

[@jillianwardx]

Also caffeine makes ur vocal chords dry.. So as much as u can, u should stop 😁

[@wallewaltz]

I am using my whistle register almost everyday to improve it and it's been two weeks already I can sing two notes higher than my start point. So I've been told that whistling damages voice very much. Actually belting hurts my voice even more. Whistling is so easy, effortless and painless. Does it damage my voice, should I stop it?

[@talitastuart]

Hey Kerri! Thanks for the tips, I really need to take care of my voice and I was not doing it very well! Thanks!

[@obehibe5456]

thanks darling.....i am now officially a song bird

[@rayd9818]

I really need help! After I'm starting sing some songs I feel burning in my throat when I sing and when I speak I feel hoarseness, can you help me? (Im a girl) thanks in advance.

[@amor2827]

eva eva eva eva :3 love it :D

[@afridrahman1984]

keri i have a problem... when i wake up at morning then my voice is being cracked.. and when i keep silent then my voice being cracked. but i want a smooth voice all time so what can i do????

[@KerriHo]

+mdhossan ahmed - In the morning our voices need a little more attention. Here's some tips on warming up your voice in the morning - kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2TZhJubi6hjqpo. Enjoy! =)

[@jveebelen2632]

I love this video... but I have a problem when I sing a couple of song my voice starting to hoarse... what can I do..??? Can you help me..??? Pls... because I am using my diaphragm correctly .. so what can I do to my voice ..???

[@kirky3051]

You probably need to release the tension from your throat/ neck before singing

[@caglaozy760]

Jvee Belen i have that too, when i sing a couple of songs i get a little bit of a sore throat idk why

[@LVVocalTraining]

you probably have inflamation from stress or talking too loudly,, see an ENT who specializes in voice

[@aliciadevina6682]

My voice seems to crack when I sing infront of the crowd.... As I get very nervous.. Is there any help?

[@gigigiorgadze5693]

+Alicia Devina u have to addict that take this as an inspiration and show them that u can do it , when ure alone close ur eyes and imagine that there's a big crowd in fron of you work on that after imagination try to sing on BDAYs and in front of 8 ppl. sing in the streets when ure with ur friends with that other ppl can see that u can sing so keep goin

[@aliciadevina6682]

Thanks a bunch..and about my voice and breath control? Err how do I improve my expand my lungs for a better breath control ? Like singing long lyrics... And sustaining a note.. Sometimes I can sometimes I can't.... Is there any way to improve on that

[@KerriHo]

-Hi Alicia- this video will help you learn to breathe properly for singing - kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3KogIWheKZoa8U

[@vershashukla8836]

Cool 😎

[@hazuki_music]

Do you (or anyone else really) know any cheaper alternatives to manuka honey? It's like £13 for a decent pot from Tescos and I don't think my mum will be happy buying such expensive honey... :/ Also, do you have any tips on how to heal a sore throat? I've got an A Level recording thing in 3 days' time and my voice feels like crap... :/

[@15Smdv]

what if you have a cold?

[@ВасилијеЂуковић]

do not sing

[@jakestevenson6388]

+Василије Ђуковић I disagree. I think learning correct technique that removes tension and encourages proper placement allows a singer to sing with a cold or infection without it becoming injurious. Obviously a good rule is to stop singing if it hurts, or there is throat tension.

[@KerriHo]

If you have a sore throat, you should not sing. However, if you need to talk, the very light bubbles are great for gently getting your voice into the right place before speaking. Stay hydrated and let sore throat heal. You can try steam and hot tea with honey. Stay away from caffeine - it is dehydrating. =)

[@sandralovesswag]

Joking I'm watching this at 8:02pm hahHagahagdhd

[@TenninWorks]

Kerri-ble and Ho-rribly good advice. Just the pun sorry...

[@KerriHo]

Thanks :)

you are right but my tongue produced slow sound and thick

[@miaow7630]

"get grounded take flight and siiiiiiiing"

[@raiderfly]

Obviously these videos are good considering my music teacher puts them as an assignment in Google classroom.

[@maxineberzosa2820]

And evah and evah evah evah

[@nekoleaa]

I always thought milk helps when you drink it before a gig.I always did that before I started singing.Maybe that's why it doesn't feel right when I sang with milk.

[@areeshakhawar892]

my voice is good but i shout too much so my vocal cords are disturbed and i dont eat spicy foods too much

[@LVVocalTraining]

I know this is a few years too late,, but just saw this video and your post,,, you need to see an ENT who is also a laryngologist,,who also knows the Voice,,, until u can,,, massage your neck,, the soft round circles on your cheeks,, you have tension in your throat,,,unless it is something worse,, you may have inflamation on your chords or vocal folds,, but you need a professional exam,,,,,,,,stress and tension can make your throat sore or hoarse,,it can get serious so I hope you got help,,, I massage the inside of my mouth with my thumb in my cheek,, and my fingers OUTSIDE my cheek, and massage the cheek from outside in,,,it feels great and stimulates the mouth tissue,,, hope u are Ok,,

[@microwave2584]

areesha Khawar I love to eat spicy foods but I shout a lot so I'm in the midst of those

[@areeshakhawar2397]

FatherAtlas same here my vocal cords ruin day by day screaming and shouting causes vocal damage I cant control my habits :( but I try to care my vocal cords

[@lreckhardt]

Walmart.com sells Manuka Honey in the United States.

[@KerriHo]

+LeRoy Eckhardt - Wonderful to hear! It's such a wonderful product- so good for you- and I'm glad you can find it easily in the United States! =)

[@sandralovesswag]

I'm watching this at 2:00

[@marinaserra9508]

best intro lol

[@PunnyRabbit]

Wouldn't being vegan help one's voice a lot? You mentioned more fruits and vegetables on top of staying away from meat and dairy. Based on what you said, would you not say it is optimal to avoid meat and dairy completely? It would make one's body healthier, and thus (even as you said) will result in a healthy and usable voice at any point of his/her day.
