I learn how to sing for 30 days.

I want to be able to sing, but is singing a talent or a skill?
I was curious, so I tried a challenge - can I become good enough to perform live by practicing how to sing daily for 30 days?
Apps used: "Sing Sharp" and "Vocalist Lite"
Autotune software: Melodyne

[@heartlightintuition]

As a 15 year old with a teensy tiny voice, I wanted to be able to sing so badly. My singing teacher told me "if you can speak you have a sense of pitch. If you can walk, you have a sense of rhythm. Everyone can learn to sing." He was right. I now make my living with my voice (I'm a teacher) and have repeatedly lead singing for communities of 100+ children and their parents. You have to know the technicalities though. There's a lot to learn and not every teacher is actually using science to teach.

[@Dog34657]

What are the techniques we need to learn to sing better as a singer?

[@jaidenwester911]

It sounds like a problem you’re having (or had since I guess his video is pretty old lol) is that you’re singing at the back of your throat rather than more foreword, which can actually lead to vocal damage if done continuously. Also, now that I’ve finished watching the video (lol) it seems you’re also tensing up your throat a lot trying to reach higher notes, but a technique that definitely takes some practice to do is relaxing your throat when you sing higher notes. Try doing exercises going up the scales with almost with the feeling of a yawn. You probably won’t even see this comment so this is probably pointless to type out but woo hope I could help someone

[@clau6972]

The yawn thing is very good advice - it always helps me a ton to open up my „resonance rooms“ (don’t know the english term sorry). Try to sing while yawning! It’s also a very convenient exercise when vocal lessons are in the morning and I’m constantly yawning anyways...

Please get enough rest between vocal training sessions. If you’re having a sensation where your vocal chords sound gravelly or worn out you’re pushing yourself too hard and actually causing small grazes and damage to the larynx. It can eventually cause infection or scar tissue which will permanently change the way your voice sounds. Im not just some random person I’m a qualified vocal coach. I really hope Dave sees this.

You definitely did sound better by the end, and you were incredibly brave to do this on the big, terrifyingly public internet! I had to sing publicly and solo for the first time at the grand old age of 34, when I took a Performing Arts course, and singing turned out to be a mandatory part of the course (that they told me wasn't mandatory if I took the acting pathway, but that turned out to be a lie, along with dancing.) I was beyond terrified. Up until this point, I'd only ever sung along to the radio when I was all on my own, and just below the volume of the radio so no-one outside would guess I was singing along. And now, after some singing lessons on a Performing Arts course, I was having to do a BLOODY SOLO in front of an ACTUAL, PAYING AUDIENCE. Fortunately I survived and so did they.

You get a subscription from me just for having the guts to do this in a public forum. I really wanted to point out that learning from videos doesn't work for everyone. Although you said many times you were going into falsetto you really weren't. You were belting. A real live music teacher would be able to see that and show you how to get into falsetto vs pushing into the upper register. Belting can cause damage to your vocal chords over time. That's why your throat would hurt when you were doing it too long and why you actually lost some range instead of gaining it. Falsetto is softer and more breathy. It uses looser vocal chords and the force of your breath to create high notes. Most rock singers don't actually use falsetto because it sounds less aggressive. It is popular in pop and can be easy to recognize once you know what you are looking for. It is a completely different sound and when people use it they are not straining to reach the note. I know this is a really old video and you probably won't even see this comment but if you really want to improve your singing, find a singing teacher with some classical experience so they can show you the differences and how to stop straining so you can save your vocal chords from injury. I am not a teacher, I'm a singer who was fortunate to have a really great chorus teacher in high school who taught us how to use the vocal chords in a safe way and I still catch myself straining sometimes.

Just like your "Don't Stay In School" video, you don't want to waste your time learning stuff that is not relevant. Awesome that you were diligent for 30 days. Make sure you can find a vocal coach that can actually sing well and study their method so your efforts are reward. :-)

[@kentamplin]

Most vocal coaches are a lot like Economists, They claim to know how money works and yet none of them are rich. Vocal coaches claim to know how the voice works, but few can sing (or sing well). For example: Vocal coaches show how to use your abdomen / diaphragm for breath support and strength. And then when you hear them sing, they sound very weak themselves. Just because they can go through the motions and make their belly protrude doesn't mean they are using any strength in the belly at all. It's an exercise in futility. - Food for thought :-) Love your vides :-)

[@elnegrito1379]

+Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy what you said is pretty much what sports commentators do. same as music critics. like for example I've never made a song or played an instrument but still I judge the skills of one who does. when I have zero. so yea your right. I don't do the judging tho lol

[@justanotherhuman8717]

Ken Tamplin knows wtf he is talking about..........dude is one of the best vocalists and vocal coaches on the planet.

[@Studio2770]

William Perez Ken is a fantastic singer. He can get a Chris Cornell and Steven Tyler sound.

[@insomniabunnii]

+Awesome Gamer Boyinaband made a song called "Don't stay in school" where he questions the way schools teach students. That's what Ken Tamplin was referring to.

[@Caranraug]

I've been studying music and singing for quite a few years and one of my teachers got a degree on CVT, Complete Vocal Technique. She taught me so much about the human voice and everything it can do, and as the name suggests the technique covers everything from talking and screaming to singing. If you're interested, look it up! You might even find a certified CVT teacher in your area who could help you with your technique. CVT gives you a very thorough experience and there's only one rule: if it hurts, you're doing something wrong. It's also very analytical and gives you the means to further research your own voice. I hope it'll help you like it helped me!

[@MattGalter]

Sweetie, singing is VERY psychological. YOU'RE ONLY "OUT OF YOUR RANGE" WHEN U THINK & BELIEVE U ARE OUT OF YOUR RANGE! Singing is a live, spontaneous, instant, demonstration of the Law of Attraction. The moment I aligned my intentions w my emotions and KNEW I could do it: I could hit any note I wanted, from the lowest bass to the highest Mariah whistles. ALLWAYS KNOW U CAN DO IT, NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES, or u simply won't! I'm personally a living example of all this

this should be required watching by all of us who have illusions of grandeur about singing. and your view count probably indicates it has. you hit the nail on the head. i've been doing my own vocal exercises based on youtube videos that make sense to me. you are right- it doesn't make you a caruso but it helps improve your natural range. skill vs. talent? a combination of both but there are many who are blessed with being born with the right physical structure to do it properly without thinking too much about it.

[@dany.gzz95]

I loved that you just posted a video of yourself singing this way, it makes the whole thing more light-hearted. You really should continue singing, because you have a wonderful voice. If you ask me (4 + 1/2 years of singing classes but still not an expert in any way), you are a baritone. It's not just about the actual range of notes you can hit comfortably, it's about how your voice SOUNDS. You aren't a tenor (think of Nathan Ruess, Bruno Mars, Justin Bieber, Adam Levine), and you also aren't a bass (listen to Barry White. Bass voices are VERY rare so it's easy to confuse baritones for bass but when you listen to a bass it's very clear). imo, baritone is the best male tessitura- Michael Bublé, Bryan Stokes Mitchell, Calvin Harris, Alejandro Fernandez (Mexican), Hozier (pretty sure), Ramin Karimloo, Brian D'Arcy James, etc. Keep it up!

[@TheModernWitches]

You did well at Celldweller and so nice to see another KZbinr who likes his music!

[@konradboehm9407]

This is definitely the coolest video made about singing improvement on youtube. I would LOVE to see another month, heck, maybe even a year of this. You should also make a schedule for us to see what you did on each day, eg: Day 3: Mumming, training pitch Day 7: Downloaded [name of app] etcetc. You earned a subscriber!

As a singer I really enjoyed this! I always found it difficult but interesting when friends ask for help in improving their singing bc describing how to sing is not as easy as it sounds. I like how you were perceptive of different factors that affected your singing and I'm sure that contributed to your improvement. Cheers!

[@codylujan]

I'm going to give you a little bit of personal advice from a fellow vocalist. When I first started out, I sounded just like you. No tonality, no vocal color, I was basically just speaking in different keys. I finally started breaking the barrier and started singing songs out of my range. Boy I tell ya. I sounded like a dying whale. Absolutely a dying whale. Nothing was in key, I sounded like a train wreck. I was determined though. I kept on singing every morning, every afternoon, every evening. The cool thing about it is, you don't even know that your voice is improving. In your mind, nothing is different just because you want that will go go higher. To start off, you need to have a passion about the song you're singing and actually feel the song. If you're singing just for fun, or to prove a point, you'll never get anywhere. Singing is an art that you have to develop the talent and skill. You go to put your heart into it. Anyone can go to the gym and lift 20lb dumbbells all week and not gain anything but self satisfaction. It takes the person to do those routines and slowly work up to where they want to be. Same for singing. Keep at it if you have the passion and let 'er rip dude. Don't feel like someone is judging you. Put on your headphones, turn that volume up and put your heart behind it. Don't worry how you sound, sing from your soul. I guarantee you'll see an improvement. Don't worry if you blow your chords. Drink tea and take some cough drops to sooth your voice.

[@foobarfuubar2295]

Hey! Loved your video! Compared to other "singing" videos I think this encourages others to at least try it out even if they think they can't sing. All the vocal trainers assure you that it's a skill to be learned (and I believe them and you especially after a week of training myself) but usually no one is comfortable to publish the learning phase with all the singing one really doesn't want others to hear. Kudso to you for "exposing" yourself like that. I appreciate it. I recently started learning bass and that brought me to writing music and then I needed vocals. Kind of like you I never really sang before, but still want my own voice on my production. Helped me to see someone go through similiar stuff and I'm a bit angry at myself that I never thought of app-assistance for exercises. I just use singstar (UltraStar Deluxe) so I can have fun and still train my voice. I also did some research and the instruction videos I personally liked best were "Dr Dans Voice Essentials" - one can do a free trial for 7 days and then purchase the training tracks for about 60$. Haven't purchased it, but I am thinking about it - one of the base exercises are a bit like the ones on your app. 5 note scale up and down, 3 note scale interval and so on. I will have a closer look at apps for that.
