Any feedback? okay...u asked my opinion about your friend's voice...well...tell him to practice more cuz he's WAAAAAAYYYYY out of tune...way.[no offence]
Ok seriously, I have no idea what you're talking about.
This kid's amazing. And he's not way out of tune. I have perfect pitch, and I can definitely hear that hes pretty much on key, except for a few parts.
What I would say though, is that it sounds a bit timid, and the piano is overpowering his voice, but otherwise, it was great.
Yeah, but you can clearly hear that the song is too low for his voice, which makes him breathe out very much air when he sings. yes i do believe that that's another reason that he sounded pretty much out of tune and another thing is that he seems VERY shy, i use to be like that but when my friends and i started our band we began singing and playing around the school (which we still do) and by time i began to become more dull to what others (the ignorant, the arrogant and the imbecils) said or moked and maybe that's what this kid needs to loosen up, don't you agree? |

I'm having trouble with breathing, my vocal coach says. I need something to help stop my voice from wavering and get much more depth and richer when I sing.
Any help?

i've been singing for most of my life, and i've never been too worried bout how i sound. i was in a band for two years and we just broke up. i sang alot of the songs but we mostly covered songs sung by guys (eg the vines, wolfmother, the living end and green day), and i never had any problems, but now i'm starting a new band and we're playing alot of paramore type stuff. i generally don't have a problem reaching the high notes, but i've been told i sound whiny/ nasally when i do. so yeah, does this happen to anyone else?
anyone got some advice?
any would be greatly appreciated. thanks dudes xx

Well I think covers always sound different.
Plus the high parts are quite hard to reach, which just adds to the difficulty.
I think that you should just consult with your band and see what they think. See if they can help you since they seem to be noticing it.
I'm actually singing to them right now :] and it is really hard. I cant reach the high parts D:

Other than checking locally, you could just type vocal coach into a search engine and see what comes up,
or anything music wise in your area, you could go around and ask.
Sorry if that's not much help. |

Well, how strong is your head voice?
You don't need to belt and use chest voice constantly, if you have a really powerful head voice, it sounds just as good.
Then again, I'm more opera than paramore, so maybe I'm wrong. I just always feel like a powerful, straight tone head voice is just as nice. |

Well, if you need to breathe correctly, here's how it works:
Your diafragm is a muscle underneath your lungs, and when it pulls down, it allows your lungs to expand MUCH further, and get more air in. But, initially, your abdominal muscles are in the way, so to make room for the diaphragm, you need to force out your abdominal (stomach) muscles. You'll know you are breathing correctly when your stomach is moving out when you INHALE, rather than exhale.
I really hope that helped... |

Posts: 30309 | March 26th, 2008 at 03:18pm I was wondering, can you get better at singing by practising?
Just belting out songs constantly. If there's any better way to put it.

Alright.
Well.. best way to put this, if you're singing all the time constantly, but not the right way,
then no, you will not get better.
If you look over the different techniques the others have suggested in here,
it combines to what you should be doing.
And the reason your voice wavers is because you need support,
plus time where you're practicing properly.
Once you do that, it won't waver anymore.
Hope I've helped. |

Posts: 30309 | April 1st, 2008 at 11:49am Well, yeah, I think i'm getting better. It was breathing that was my problem. Thanks for the tips,
and oh, the other person that helped me, I have no idea what soprano, alto etc etc mean.
I was in a choir, but it never got mentioned.
I can't have vocal lessons, because, well, I don't want to get into it.
I don't drink or smoke.
But yeah, soprano? What does it mean please?
