Love the mix of humour, education and technical exercises you give with every video, Mark. I used to find vocal exercises so boring but you make them fun and I understand now what the point of each exercise is. Your humility is also very endearing. Love your work!🤩

[@voicelessondotcom]

I'm glad you're putting the videos to good use!

[@svondriska]

Mark, I mentioned this in a reply but I wanted to say it here too ❤I do this warmup everyday. I have Mark’s book and talk about wisdom! I love how I can feel the passion he has for teaching through the pages. I once heard him say that singing is like giving yourself a hug. I can testify to that. Singing has brought me so much healing both physically and mentally. I’m a fully disabled vet from service some fifteen years ago. Being bedridden plus having PTSD left me in a really dark place. I eventually was out in a music therapy program a couple of years ago. Ever since then I have been singing and playing guitar everyday. It has saved my life.. I didn’t know how far hugging myself in this way could go. Thank you so much for all of the lessons you have taught me. You’ve been a huge part of this healing journey I’m on… helping me to believe in myself and keep going. You’ve also made me a better singer-which my family thanks you for. ;) You’re simply the best. ❤

[@voicelessondotcom]

I'm honored to be a part of your journey, Shannon!

[@Shade84]

I love this, because it shows even professional singers, or those who've been practicing a long time don't simply jump out of bed singing like a Disney prince or princess. It takes constant work; practice and patience. I often felt like I'd be making progress, then have a day where my voice makes a weird sound and feel discouraged. Hearing someone I know is great work through a struggle is very inspiring and reminds me to be patient with my instrument. Thank you for this amazing video, all those before it, and the ones still to come!

[@voicelessondotcom]

Glad to help - lots more to come!

[@ezmepetersen2503]

I can't thank you enough, Mark. A year ago I discovered your videos and you save my voiced and life. After abdominal surgery and COPD I gave up on singing due to reduced oxygen saturation. I love singing and kept things going at a minimum level thanks to open mic nights. I looked for a good vocal warm up, my vocal coach had died, but nothing online was right for me because I don't have the stamina I once had. I love your soft and gentle approach, that was what I needed. I went from doing very little to joining a band, I had never done that before. My vocal stamina is much better and the quality of my voice is better than I thought it ever would be after years living with damaged lungs. I have to work on the transition from chest to middle voice but that's just practice and concentrating on quality over quantity. Now, if I am working with an inexperienced singer you are my go-to guy, I refer them to your videos as well as doing vocal exercises specifically for their vocal range. They move on after a couple of months but keep working with your videos. One lady has now joined two bands after just 8 months from no vocal confidence at all. I went to hear her perform a few weeks ago and they invited me onto the stage to do a Tina Turner song, I thought I was doing the backup but I was asked to sing lead, she said it was her dream to sing with me and I'm so glad we could both do that. So please believe me when I say, you are the Master and I am so grateful to have your videos to keep me going.

[@voicelessondotcom]

What a great post! I'm so glad to have contributed to the continuation of your passion! Comfort first - then control. That's the way to your best voice!

[@byonnoyb]

Ezme, I'm so happy for you! I share a similar story but regarding urgent open heart surgery to remove a tumor in my left atrium. I've had extensive singing experience over the years including touring, tv, theater etc but we all go through things and it never entered my head during the agony of months of recovery, physical, psychological, emotional, that I would be working in my own professional covers band and performing even better than I feel I ever had, nine years later. I persevered and patience was my constant companion to trust that all will fall into place, even through the trials of being tempted to give up. So here's to you and your beautiful voice and career!

[@ezmepetersen2503]

@@byonnoyb Thank you so much for your heart warming story and encouragement. What a great testimony and isn't it so fantastic to be doing what you love even after all these years. It is truth, people, you have to put the work in to get the results, it doesn't come from nothing. I'm only able to sing today because I worked on the foundations years ago. But too many singers have been written off because coaches don't know how to do remedial work. A quick update:- My lovely Daughter got married last week, my Band played a 90 minute set which included Sweet Child of Mine with me on lead vocals, it got a big cheer so I'm happy with that. Mark is a great teacher, speaks truth from experience and I trust his warm ups and 'off days' tips. Keep singing and having fun. Mark, keep doing what you do so well, we really appreciate your energy and effort.

[@EdwardPrah]

This was great! There are so many things to take away here that I'll have to keep coming back to watch this. The main thing I took away is awareness of my voice condition. I don't sleep very well so my voice feels very tired and heavy most days. I know as a singer it's hard to take steps backward in order to move forward, but I need to do more of the "Worried about vocal damage" video you have AND sleep well (which is hard right now) so I can actually feel good again. Feeling good is so important to singing is another takeaway. Your videos are so packed with wisdom and well put together. Thank you for your hard work and efforts! God bless you Sir.

[@voicelessondotcom]

You're absolutely right - sleep is the number one influence on the voice (hydration is second). Focus on getting better sleep and your voice will thrive.

I’m a fully disabled vet due to service and started singing and playing guitar a couple of years ago through a music therapy program for vets with PTSD. I have been practicing everyday since I started and now I can even play some of your songs. I have so much fun going down memory lane with you. I could never do you justice.. but my dogs enjoy my performance nonetheless. I do this warmup everyday. I have Mark’s book and talk about wisdom. I love how I can feel the passion he has for teaching through the pages. I once heard him say that singing is like giving yourself a hug. I can testify to that. Singing has brought me so much healing both physically and mentally-it really does help keep me going.

Hi Mark. Thanks again for your informative video. Well, this is my initial MR routine now LOL. I have a question if I may-once a month on Sundays I am rostered AM & PM to sing with the team in church. What I usually do I use your "Good morning voice!" vocal warmup while getting ready, and one more 10 mins while getting to church (My husband is driving in the meantime 😄), and once in church we get into practising the songs. Would this"Wake Up, Voice" system be more beneficial -than your 15 mins vocal warm up?? Or both? Much appreciated🙏😊.

[@voicelessondotcom]

This one would be good to alternate with "Good Morning Voice". Using a variety of warmups will make you more aware of your condition - better beginning to your vocal day!

[@bellaboop1]

Gorgeous home. Cereal 🤔 Was that with milk? I was always told by instructors not to drink milk before I sing, it coats the throat and lowers your voice placing I was told, mucus etc. I warm up with you often, can you shed some light please. Many thanks.

[@voicelessondotcom]

Yes there is milk in my cereal every morning! There is no scientific evidence of milk making it hard to sing - but there's certainly a lot of folks that say so. Nothing we swallow touches the vocal folds and we sing through our throats - not from them. Mostly I drink water - but little milk and a little alcohol are not going to diminish what deep skills provide!

[@bellaboop1]

@@voicelessondotcom Interesting, I've read both studies for and against. Anything we eat or drink can get into our bloodstream, same as water, which takes a long time to reach the vocal cords. I guess it comes down to how it affects you personally. I always felt like my throat was coated and my voice gurgled after drinking milk. When milk is not present and The voice is congested or gurgling, those skills you mentioned certainly help one pass over the hump.

[@voicelessondotcom]

@@bellaboop1 Yes - everything we eat effects us via the bloodstream. But water doesn't lubricate the vocal folds - hyaluronic acid does. And there's more to hydration than water (electrolytes like sodium, potassium and calcium are vital). The things we ingest are broken down into what the body needs to function. So a balanced diet is the best approach for a healthy voice.

[@NoisyRooster]

I found it interesting that you mention resonance moving vertically and pitch moving horizontally. Do you have any resources explaining this better?

[@voicelessondotcom]

It's basic anatomy. Your vocal folds lay horizontally across the windpipe and are tensed or released to change pitch. The vocal tract runs vertically from your trachea to your sinuses - and resonance moves according to the size of the sound wave: Low notes are attracted to large cavities (chest) and high notes to small cavities (head).

[@NoisyRooster]

That does make sense, as you said, anatomy wise. I guess what I meant to ask was; are pitch and note supposed to be controllable independently while you sing or speak? For example, if I sing or even say a note at a certain pitch, when I go up and down the scale, it feels as though I can either sing up and down notes by changing the qualities of my mouth resonators, or I can thicken/relax my vocal chords to produce higher and lower pitches. (So, same note, different pitch) I just can't seem to do both at the same time. Is this something that can be trained? I am trying to gain full control over my voice to assist me with my voice and character acting. And of course, to sing comfortably when I want to. Thank you so much for reading comments and actually responding to them. It's a rare thing to see these days on this here youtubes.

[@voicelessondotcom]

@@NoisyRooster Every sound we make has only four variables: The pitch, the volume, the quality and the duration. Focus on those rather than what you think your body should do and you'll open up the treasure trove of all the available sounds humans can make. Your only restriction is your imagination!

Hi again! I have two questions, one of which might be a video request: what do we do when life is a bit rough, let's say, and we just don't find the strength to sing. At the same time, we don't want to interrupt the daily training, yet singing is just out of place. What do we do if this goes on for a while? Second: does vocalising out of range damage the voice? I'm thinking about the fact the average person will not have custom tonality piano base, so we will have to use karaokes. And we might need the +3 version while having just other versions available. Can it create a bad habit in the long run? Thank you

Hi, Mark i have a question. Should singers avoid coffee or spicy food?

[@voicelessondotcom]

No problem with a cup of coffee - but watch that 3rd trenta! With spices - It depends on the amount and your response. So, every singer should know what their voice can and cannot handle. Make a mental note of what you ate and when every time you're in good or bad voice. That way you'll know how to set the stage for a great performance!

This made me yawn a lot is that normal?

[@voicelessondotcom]

Absolutely normal - and temporary.

Hot to sing like Chris Martin Coldplay?

[@voicelessondotcom]

Allow the vocal registers to change freely as you rise in pitch. No pushing!

Are you having a cold and sore throat, Mark?

[@voicelessondotcom]

Neither! Just mild allergies.
