i'm a first soprano in my head voice and whistle register, but i have a much stronger chest voice and the only part of this that was hard was the high note at the end in chest voice. it's not low at all?!
I can only kind of sing this. I'm an undefined (depending on what I sing depends on my range) It kinds of sucks when they ask for range and you're like "depends?"
Sing it up the octave xx i tried it and it dosnt go ridiculously high xx sounds hot down the octave though xx its not that low xx bet you could sing it if you tried, Im a soprano as well xx
@mallah109 The difference between sopranos and altos isn't only in their range. It's in the notes you feel most comfortable with. You're just lucky to have a wide vocal range.
the women had to rouge their knees because they used to dance in charleston style and their knees use to get wounded from hitting together. so they rouged them to cover them up
i'm lucky cause im 14 and already have roughly a three octave range so i can sing most things but this is a great version so thanks!!!! i really enjoyed singing it....xxx
heyyyyyyy this is really useful thanks, although i still can't find a version online that starts on an e which is what i need, but you said this is too low for you, if you sing it starting on an e its higher so prolly better for your voice aswell as mine :)
i have the sheet music for it on an e, and do that with the piano but i have my audition coming up soon and can only practise when someones playing in the piano part really :/
i love this song. i was going to perform run by leona lewis for an assessment peice i'm doing in january, but i'm doing this one instead now as i can move around the stage more. i even have a routine for it :L thanks for the karaoke version :D xxx
i am an alto and im a girl and its the range i can sing so it musnt be damagig my voice as i am getting better and being able to sing higher now so it musnt be damaging my voice!
I generally sing Soprano 1 but I can sing this song and I love it. Thanks, stageleft- and maybe if you try warming up your lower range some more you could sing this! or just adjust the key. haha.
I have a strong voice. I normally sing soprano 1, and can hit a high c. But I can also sing as low to tenor. :) I guess having a strong voice helps me do that. I love this song.
unless you're like me and have a 4 octave range. My younger sister, my last choir director (female), and an old college roommate all had natural tenor/2nd alto ranges. It's not unheard of for women to have low ranges.
There are loads of songs out there for alto/ belter voices!! if you look into any kander and ebb stuff! "Chief, cook and bottlewasher" , "Its a Quiet thing" is a good ballad" " isnt this Better?" another great song! And obvious ones from Cabaret! Look into Ivor Norvello and Cy coleman stuff as well! good jazzy tunes for lower voices! Hope that helped
Altos can sing the song well too. I'm a mezzo-soprano, so I can do all the notes on a staff for the female part, but my strong point are the lower notes, which this song consists of.
In the time this musical is set in, a woman showing her knees was very provocative. Rouge is a pinkish makeup. Evidently, some women put rouge on their knees to make them more attractive. Usually rouge is used on the face, though.
Hehe, I can see why your teacher would have to change some of the lyrics.
actually iI went to a workshop in NYC with the current broadway cast and she explained to us that the lyrics is "I'm gonna rouge my knees" because normally, ladies back then would ALWAYS wear stocking when they went out, that would cover their legs, but you would put rouge on your knees to make them look nicer, sort of like make up. It's implying that you know your stockings are gonna be coming off tonight so you want your legs to look good.
@x3BabeyLovex3 actually - rouge my knees - means - and I'll be blnut - it means getting on your knees to perform a sex act... and well.. their knees get red... its a very sexual musical... im surprised you're doing it in middle school - saying that tho so is Grease...and thats always done.....
@charliefoxx81 no it was that women wore make up so when they take their stockings off (for sex) they looked nice mostly hookers and cabaret show girls
thanks a lot for this, out of all the songs i hear this one really suits my voice, would you happen to know any other songs from musicals that are similar?
because ive loked on quite a few and there all out of my range.
oh thank God. Im freakin cus im singing this at and audition and have yet to play with the person who is the accompanist. i had nothing but this to relay on and practice.
Oh no i totally know. Ive been in theatre for a while. But we had a huge snow storm and i've only been to school for like two days, monday and friday. lol
heyhey! you were right about altos finding this useful! i'm an alto with a jazzy feel to my voice. i recently discovered 'chicago" and decided to give this song a go!
this song seems a bit too fast... or maybe its the words that are off
