you should have gone up in your range, you sang 2 notes the whole song, you were at your lowest range the whole time, I heard you trying to go low and losing it, use your voice.
Your singing isn't that bad. Trust me, I have seen worse on here. The problem is that you are not matching the correct style of the song with your voice. Your playing it a little to fast, and you aren't putting enough emotion into it. Not that your putting any in at all, you just need a little more. Listen to Aaron Lewis from Staind play this cover. You will learn alot. Good luck.
So I guess everyone else is wrong? Im fine with taking the good with the bad, dont get me wrong. But come on man, this is pathetic pre-school shit. Could someone possibly point out how this song just absolutely sucks SO bad. I would be ever so greatful!
i thought it was good u guys should keep at it but your always going to get crap from people about having a girl singer but screw them you guys are good
if you are pointing to the beginning of the song, she was singing fine according to the tuning. granted she missed alot of notes throughout the song, but to say she was not singing it right is not correct. did she sing it like vedder? no. was she singing it right? depends what you mean by right, but it was certainly in tune with the guitar. she put her own twist on it, thats all. good job with the song. keep practicing and the control will come.
Ok, i'll give you a break. my real comment is that the girl wasn't singing it right, at least not according to the guitar tuning. she was off, most of the song. you played it ok.
It wasnt bad. When you sing you should be standing up, that way you can sing from your diaphram. By sitting you cant put the power in your voice and cutting of your air.
this is offensive....could'nt find another chair or was that supposed to be cool. the guitarist should learn the song. She should give up butchering songs forever....horrible
What do you mean the guitarist should learn the song...I knew it just fine. Its all chords, nothing more(for the style I was playing. I wasnt doing the original)
mate...you look like you are about 15 yrs old....trust me young man what you played was not pearl jam....ok maybe you did not do the original, thats fair enough, but then I would suggest you stop rearranging songs until you have the ability. I'm giving you advice. I am alot older and wiser and trust me a much more experienced musician. Don;t take it to heart but if you put these videos online you must be able to take the bad rap too....its a major part of the music industry.
lol Im prepared for it 100%(Im actually 17 btw)I just wanted to know what you meant by it. When a song is done with simply chords, it can be rather hard to distinguish whether its a certain song or not. Know what I mean?
That's right, fool, he wasn't playing Pearl Jam. Then again, he never said he WAS Pearl Jam, so it's all right. They played their own interpretation of a song written by Pearl Jam, and anyone is allowed to do that.
But it wasn't played very well :P Has potential, though.
Maybe I am right but I do believe the title of the video is Black-Pearl jam(cover....correct me if I am wrong....anyway out of the two performing I would much rather listen to the guy on the guitar, he has some potential showing....the girl is wrapped up in being too alternative and cool...she should quit before she is fired!!
Why thick? I can compare Stephen Hawking to George Walker Bush if I want to. Just look:"G.W.B. is, compared to S.H., super stupid but very handsome". But I wasn't comparing these guys to Johnny Cash. I pointed out that they had done the same thing (except that these guys let the world know who made the song, while most people nowadays think J.C. wrote Hurt). Never did I imply that J.C. was as bad as these guys.
this is fine. it sounds like you are experimenting with the staind version and having fun with it. thats cool. dont let anyone affect u, just play and enjoy it and get better as you go. rock
the singer sounds bored. shes monotone the whole god damn time. if you listen to the original eddie veder puts so much raw emotion into this song. its an emotional song.
The singer isn't bad! ya, there are a couple spots where it sounds like the singer was trying to improvise on the spot and didn't know where exactly they wanted to go. But they're not a bad singer because of that, just inexperienced is all. I think you're just used to Eddie singing the song, I'm glad to see they took some liberties and made it a bit their own. In fact I'd say they have a bright future of singing if the vocal training is kept up with.
from my sound tech knowledge which is alright to my singin knowledge which is lacking
an odd song choice for a chick but not performed badly
the way vedder sings it is tricky he has a lot of pitch changes and especially with soem of the lower ones i think u would sound better without trying to sing exactly like vedder because he has such an incredibly unique voice but you handled it well and apart from the dodge sound quality i enjoyed it
if ur goin 2 capture live video with a vidcam the wings isent 2 smart u'll get backstage noise its also a good idea 2 have ur sound recorded straight from the mic and instead of using the bad cam soundtrack which will have imprerfections on it use the live recording from the desk and sync it will give u a much clearer sound on the vocals
Yeah I hear many people say that. You either like it or you dont really. Personally I dont mind the female voice at all. Gotta be open to new things my man.
nah dude, I love female singers.. right now I cant stop listening to Morcheeba (if you havent checked em' out.. PLEASE DO) but this song is so trademark "Eddie Vedder" that I couldnt seem to enjoy it any better with anything else.. Dunno dude, just my honest opinion
Who gives a fuck who sings the song, once you can fully undersatnd it .
fair play to you .
good job
