And which'll fit the mood of the performance. Think about what kind of feeling you want to create, then pic a song to go with that feeling.

Well, you might want to know this, if you don't already: You don't breathe through your chest, you breath in your stomach. I would suggest maybe practicing breathing from your stomach slowly, and making sure it expands, and then pausing for a few seconds, then letting it back out slowly. Also, if you have trouble getting a decent amount of air when you are doing that excercise, just do the excercise I've been taught: Picture a very large, round object... say, a basketball, in your throat. It may sound stupid, but if you picture it there, and you try to sing around it, it really does make a lot of a difference. And a tip for when you sing, when your breath is in your stomach, when you sing, don't let your stomach drop. You have to keep it firm, and keep it sustained and expanded as long as you can, because that's the key to unnoticable breathing, and a better toned voice. I hope I helped.

But if you and your friend are doing the original, it's really pretty high. What kind of soprano I wouldn't be able to help you with - if you can sing low as well as high you could be a mezzo soprano - but yeah, anyways. Then yes, I am pretty sure I am a mezzo soprano, because I can go low as well as high. Thank you for clearing that up for me.

Addabitty Joining The Black Parade Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 216	September 15th, 2007 at 01:57am I can sing, I guess. I made it into the show choir at my school, which means singing AND dancing. I'm also in a rock school band, and was in one over the summer. I sang a couple songs, and we did a really bad cover of "I Don't Love You". My idea, xD.
Dream of Falling Bleeding on the Floor Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 1615	September 20th, 2007 at 10:21pm I have a question. Is it better to sing when your full or hungry?

I wouldn't see it making a difference, but I would say full would probably be better, just because the constant gnawing in your stomach might disract you from putting all your techniques to use at once.
xMari_Malicex Motor Baby Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 775	October 2nd, 2007 at 07:26am The problem with singing when you're very full is that even drawing in a good breath can cause you to have a bad tummyache.
scandalqueen Killjoy Age: 37 Gender: Male Posts: 56	October 9th, 2007 at 11:02pm I sing and play piano (I posted this before on this topic I think), and I've been in bands and small groups but no one is really interested to make a career out of it in New Hampshire. I've written hundreds of songs. A lot of people around here want to imitate Green Day though... write, sing, play like Green Day. It's irratating but that's the way it is. Or they want to do hard core metal, you know, when you don't even know what they are singing.
City Lights. Salute You in Your Grave Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 2374	October 11th, 2007 at 11:36pm I've already posted here, but I just decided to also add that it turns out, my teacher says, that I'm mainly a first soprano, but I'm anything from Descant (which is higher than first soprano) to a Tenor. Or a low Alto. Most likely a low Alto. Either way, I feel pretty proud. My highest note is an E, and my lowest is a D. So... yay me? My teacher says it's good. Oh well. I love this thread, by the way.

saysayMOWFACE;; Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 11	October 29th, 2007 at 11:09pm I've been singing for a while, nothing major. I mean I've been in a few talent shows and sang at some weddings but yeah. Uhm, well, I've been singing since I was about 7, like seriously. I've always wanted to be a singer in a band, but never got to start one [[people have issues around here with loud music]] anyway, I play instruments and stuff. Mainly how I teach myself to match notes is playing on my key board. I'm about an alto-ish soprano-ish thing. So yeah. :]
