It's great to hear that you emphasize on playing around with breath, cords and resonanse. Thank you!

[@stanbrown4757]

Thank you so much. You have cleared up alot of issues I was struggling with.

[@ljdstudios]

So glad that was helpful! I'm always looking for ideas for future videos so let me know if there is anything you would like to see.

[@TruePhil]

1. tone breathy or pressed 2. pitch high or low notes 3. different pitches need different amount of air 4. air speed, contract core for more air. relax for less (push out?) 5. baby cry cords close, breathy open 6. place and resonate sound in head vocal cords longer and thinner, chest thicker and fatter more closed. 7. higher up in head, mask to top of head 8. relationship between air and vocal cords

[@ljdstudios]

You nailed it!

I do my best singing when I pass air the other way

[@mariebellnero585]

hi i have song on youtube call he my help i wont to know if useing air flow in this song

[@ljdstudios]

Thanks so much for sharing your music! When you go for some of those higher "belty" notes in that song, you might try for more energized airflow be contracting your lower abdomen. (Just the muscles below your belly button, not above). I'll link two other videos below that discuss this concept. Also, if you signup for my free guide (linked below) I have a couple of videos in there about breathing for singing as well that might help. And if you haven't already, hit the notification bell...I have a longer more in depth video on this concept coming out in March. Good luck!

ok thank you@@ljdstudios

[@rusherthapa9413]

any one has slight pain on there lower back when they try to hit higher notes ?

[@lauradavis3457]

I’ve never heard of this, but I’m a huge advocate for movement. Try some gentle continuous fluid movement while you sing and see if that helps.

[@sahel.Hoseinpour]

Yes me too

[@bluscorpion]

Higher notes live higher in the body. You have to use your cranial resonators. There shouldn't be any back pain.
