Great question Hans, it's because you're focusing on the technique and the control. We need to train this into our bodies with practice so that once it becomes habitual we can let go, trust our voice and express the emotion when performing. I might have to do a video on this! Thanks for the suggestion. :)

I’ve noticed that it’s a small thing. If you focus on singing from “the back of your throat” you will naturally sound more flowingly sing-songy instead, that’s where you’re supposed to sing through when it’s coming out of your throat, if that makes sense. However, this will make it more challenging to exercise perfect control.

As you can probably tell, singing is a layered learning experience so it's tricky to nail everyone's challenge in one video, but let's get to work figured out yours. :) When you say rhythm, is it timing that you struggle with or are you wanting more flow or warmth/fullness to your voice to sound more like "singing"?

@thatsweetroar2 жыл бұрын
I actually do invite singers to send me audios sometimes via my email list (you can subscribe over on my website: thatsweetroar.com/welcome), every few months I try to be available to help in this way. But what I WILL say is that it breaks my heart when people ask me if their voice is "not good for singing" because I believe singing and self expression is for EVERYONE. Much of the time we simply don't know how to create the sounds and colours that we desperately wish we could OR we don't really know what we want OR our confidence and self-doubt is what is holding us back the most. Your voice is worthy of singing no matter what. It's not just a skill, it's an art that everyone gets to participate in. x

Hello, thanks for taking the time to comment! You're certainly not alone in not knowing how to navigate some of those higher notes (and feeling like it's not your real voice). We don't tend to speak in higher pitches in our day to day life so it's something we begin to learn and become familiar with. Sometimes being a little silly and speaking like a cartoon character can help us find a hybrid between our normal speaking voice and something sweeter and more "sing-y".

Hmm, that's tricky to answer without hearing what you mean by "have their own wall" but it could be that you're giving each note a "puff" of air.

I hope that's helpful!

Hi Polar Apple, this is a really common issue for people who feel shy or uncomfortable projecting. I find that training using the straw can be a useful way to feel more at ease with using your breath as fuel to project (without it being loud or judging your voice). My video on this can be found here: inspiredtosing.com/videos/how-to-get-rid-of-vocal-throat-strain-tension-straw-singing

I don’t know for some reason when I’m reading my lyrics while singing it sounds like I’m talking:(

Kimberly Smith what about Eddie Vedder???? Sometimes he barely opens his mouth when he's singing live, and it sounds good., ps: I really do like your way of teaching
@thatsweetroar6 жыл бұрын
You're right Blake, but his sound can be quite spoken/slightly nasal at times so it depends what sound you're after! In this live video you can see that he opens his mouth quite a bit more when he's going to the higher fuller notes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4KyYmxnntKpZtU

I'm not a singing expert by any means but I think Eddie Vedder and people like him are very rare examples of people who are admired despite actually having fairly poor technique. I think Eddies natural tone of voice and style/energy do alot of heavy lifting for his technical shortcomings (or not shortcomings... maybe... unconventionalisms). What works for him wouldn't work for 99.999999% of most people and trying to model after his technique is probably not the ideal approach.

in my head I sound like myles kennedy, a very full sound with lots of distortion when it's required but can clean up beautifully, when i record myself, it is clear that I do not sound like that, it sounds like I'm trying to sing when someone's sleeping next to me, it sounds like i'm very quiet, but I know I have a very loud voice, I've sung before at gigs whilst drumming with no mic and can be heard at the back of the venue. The distortion is also different, it's definitely there when i record myself, but it sounds like vocal when you wake up in the morning and ur voice is very deep and croaky (men anyway) also my voice is very shaky when holding one note, but when moving the pitch around it stays strong

Hi James, have you explored the idea of "support" before and how it changes depending on the volume/power you want? That could be a great place to start. I did a video that could be a good check in here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqKmkHl8mJahoJo
