[Elew672]

Where Are The Pointless And Unnecessary Hater Comments? I Guess I'll Make One.

WHY DID IT TAKE HIM 4 MINUTES AND 22 SECONDS TO TELL US TO SHUSH LOUDLY!?

Just Kidding, Good Looks On The Videos Eric, You Know You're Stuff Forreal.

[fahkyooh]

i had such an amazing voice as a child and pre-teen. even in my early teens i was really good. i sang celine dion and luther vandross shit. a few years later, and a lot of pot and cigs after and i have a very weak voice. sometimes it shines, but it's nothing like it used to be. and my beautiful tone is almost like gone. if anyone has advice, MSG me. thank you.

[MrLiamantonyhoughton]

@fahkyooh im the same! dont smoke,or cut down coz i still smoke lots of warm and less fatty foods,and also sleep is a big thing suprisingly get early night and try warm up excerising everyday! :)

[THEONETHEONLYEM21]

Your fucking amazing ive been singing for about a year on and off and i really sucked there was potentail but nothing else than i stop because i overstrain my vocals.and a month later i start singing again and i can hit notes i could never hit before i sound super good i cant believe it iam 17 so maybe its just my voice changing

[musicensation]

amazing! i subbed man, great stuff.

[garcecastro]

Thanks man,

You are awesome, not because you are teaching something for free, but because you seem honest and really trying to help people that do not have much money but want to at least start training, I do not know what album you are going to make but if I can buy it I will, keep me posted. Giving is a good thing and many times you will receive much more. Good wishes in your career you deserve it. Gabe

[niceuser1234]

[UrbanStylesOnline]

I have the most horrible voice ever. But I also have the determination to work at it. If I do parts 1, 2, 3, 4 of your vocal warm ups/exercises and sing everyday should i eventually see results? Thankyou for posting these videos.:) Plus do these exercises work for every style of singing or are they specific for a certain style?

[balancerox1]

Thank you so much!:)

[iamreeem]

[bboylilbenjiondeck]

Can you put a video on how to get your tongue flat

[beaboyy]

[EllieOliviaBrown]

@EricArceneaux Hi, I'm Ellie and at the moment I can't afford singing lessons but your videos have really helped me. I was hoping that maybe you could watch my video on: youtube.com/watch?v=zBmTPgiVWf­o and tell me what you think.

If you don't have time I totally understand because you're probably really busy, but if you do, that would be amazing :D

Thank you so so much <3

[singingthedreamx]

Vocal Warm Up

[AddehCruuz11]

WOW!! you're just AMAZING!!! thank you so much !! :D

[Paramoreroxx13]

Is it normal for my voice to feel sore? It's my first time doing any form of "vocal warm ups" am I doing it wrong?

[TeenLife2015]

-_- how u just go leave! lmao

[Bboy3RMusic]

Wait, so, when you do this excercise, do you tighten your abs or not? Sorry, just searching for some clarification

[XxElenaMichellexX]

I use this video to do my exercises every day <3 :3

[owoxon]

thank you eric...

[hellodere94]

thumbs up if u got spit all over the screen hahaha ^_^

[KISSfanswe]

@hellodere94 Thanks to you I moved away from the screen. Thanks!

[TheHenLover]

We got shown these at school and when we did the breathing exercises there was a very impressive orchestra of farts XD

[ninamusic1011]

cool



[InLuhvWithMusic97]

Can sumone tell me if this really works .!!

[MissHam2001]

@InLuhvWithMusic97 I am one of his students and yes, the techniques really work. Check out my page. Check out all of his students TinaBSounds, MichaelWBryant, Mitra Gholam, DeMarcus Bolds, Monty Wells, and you can see us all @TheCollectiveTV chanel.

[htv122]

@InLuhvWithMusic97 Yes it really works. I recommend ordering his vocal DVD's because they're packed with great exercises and tips. Keep in mind that this is not a overnight process you have to be consistent, patent and dedicated. Its like developing the perfect body, your not just going to get it fast it takes time.

[rhodesle102693]

yeah it kinda made me light headed :o guess i shud paused in between breaths lol

[sw33tarielle1]

i litterally spat all over the place

[lasneh]

I really appreciate you doing these videos for us who can't afford a coach. Subscribing. :)

[RevolutionRecords1]

Much appreciated bro. Am using ur voice warm ups regularly, and they're awesome. Will purchase dvd as soon as cash permits.

Many thanks .

Phil

[BreBrutal101]

Lol, i was watching this and my cat jumoed

[HectorAndresMayoral]

I´d love to have a vocal coach... BUT ONLY IF IT´S YOU! ..... Move to Puerto Rico!!

[rockystar903]

you are really helpful. thank you

[audiodead]

Remember to keep your bowels under control at all times when doing this exercise.

[hannahmontana4eve]

@audiodead what?



[Cheronadare]

Thank you!!

[zala87]

[philosophystephen]

Thanks for all this.

[ssbmarth]

[misssupernerd]

[hollowaydristain]

[Shizuo10]

Ahhhh!

[nodaibut2dai]

do you think online vocal lessons are worth it, like over skype or something, or should I find someone in person?

[filipinokidstudios]

Ummm everytime I try and pause the video right when you tell me too, it just starts the video again. lol

[peace106011]

THANK YOU!!

[ixtroon]

my GF saw me doing this and i she thinks im wierd

I was like im just practising my voice

She said your voice realy sucks thats why ur a drummer on the band

but i wanna have a good voice too so ill learn this stuff

[Meteos09]

@ixtroon rock on dude don't let anything bring you down

[leesway]

@ixtroon Your gf is a bish for saying that. Even if it's true...dang girl. Burn.

[ForgettYesterday]

@ixtroon that's a bit of a douchebag thing to say haha

[Bonecrushah]

@ixtroon if your gf is putting you down, maybe it's time to break up with her

[shingoon2917]

@ixtroon Your G/F doesn't respect/ love you enough to support your effort to try and sing, thats completely awful and not a pleasant thing to hear from your g/f :/

[NatDuv121]

@ixtroon wow your girlfriend is a gank.

[livdashiell]

@ixtroon youre gf is a dush, u dont tell someone their voice sucks and ur a drumer not a singer and makes fun of u. tell her shes a dush bag 4 me , k? ;)

[PhoenixRoses4409]

@ixtroon That is really uncool of her. In any case it is really neat that YOU choose to expand your musical horizons. Dam the man and keep it up.

[GoodGuitarSolos]

@ixtroon Yes, do it! I can tell you from my experience that everyone can improve.

Three years ago I thought I sounded like the best singer in the world, then I heard myself recorded for the first time. My self-esteem about singing went SO low and I felt like the worst singer ever. Well, I practised and kept singing every day. Now, three years later I can say that I'm a really good singer. Studying singers helped too! I'm dreaming of becoming a peforming singer, I love it.

Keep practising!

[berserkur19]

@ixtroon Cool story bro

[niceuser1234]

@ixtroon I sounded so bad that i never even could sing a line among friends. I started along Eric videos just to be able to sing like other normal people. By now I sound like a pro.

[phildipop]

awesome video but umm, sorry for spitting on your face while I was doing the shhhs.

[jummpingdolfin]

THANK YOU SO MUCH, this video helps a lot. I want to buy your instructional dvd now. :)

[STARQT82]

your cute. Sing a song for me, lol.

[pichdara8587]

thank you so much for sharing .

[francescosem]

Hahah this reminds me of Dr. Cox trying to break his Ssshhh record lol Nice vid btw

[johnbulterislife]

ahahaha aww he is so cute.

[bazingaringaway]

Hello! Just a quick Q: can people actually learn how to sing properly?? I mean, my singing is just atrocious, but I was wondering if I could do anything about it.

[Telanhzan]

@bazingaringaway Here's how i felt it. I've always known my voice doesn't sound good for singing but one day i felt differently. I told myself "Okay, everybody's started out somewhere" and after doing exercises for a day or so i noticed a change in my voice. Not a dramatic change but just using your body and voice properly while trying to sing helps alot.

My points is, follow these videos and just start!

[MrStuckinabox]

@bazingaringaway Every professional singer didn't start off a pro! You gotta work on it practice just like anything else

[XxXMzCornfusedXxX]

I feel so woozy O.o..

[ThunderKid]

I sent this to my local librarian. She was very happy.

[RobinL000]

I can sing well with soft songs, but when it comes to up "stronger" and more up beat songs, my voice just sounds terrible. I want to know how I can train my voice to sound good with more up beat songs.

[anonimen31]

quick question - while singing - how should I breath - nose breathing or mouth?

[houseessence]

The shhhhttt got me dizzy ! :))

[ferdearg1]

Like this if you are watching this in 2075 ! Hey mom look, I'm in the future ! weeeeee =D !

[crissO1989]

Like this if you've been using Eric's technique since 2007!

[darkwolfgirl1997]

@sineadandamy uh did this help u?

[Ender018]

I think I'd go gay for him. :D

[MyLumia]

i love your voice.. do you like to sing with me.. :) greetings from finland

[tabithawesome]

@MyLumia i'm in Cambodia!! :)

[IXsalazarXI]

[NeitouSama]

This guy is amazing that other guy who's video is the top video wants 800$ for his stupid lessons

[MrLadyvonne]

[PoodlezFromHell]

LOL!!! I was doing this "SHHHH" to my dog Missy's face, and then she started pouncing around like a spaz xDDD (shes a puppy btw, so stuff makes her playful very easily >.>)

[HopeForMusic15]

Can i get a thumbs up for No F*cking Reason? :D lmao.

[SicStoneknot]

I was looking around for vocal teaching...I clicked this one...and it looked promising, only because he was black;)

[rainydays464]

9,384 people practiced going shhh

[1xXxRiotXxX5]

[KalimbaLove]

I just tried exercise 1 and feel a bit dizzy! I love the concept though. I sure would like to follow thru with this regularly to improve my singing voice. I LOVE singing and want my voice to be the best and most pleasing it can be for those who listen to me!

[PowerBuilder2]

I am an elite level powerlifter. I am a competing amateur bodybuilder. I have lifted the equivalent of my wife and 6 kids(yes 6). I have dieted down to paper-thin skin bodyfat. And I love to sing!!!

[YungBXThaKidd]

He really makes it easy by breaking down the steps and the easy mistakes, which makes a GREAT teacher! He's not that math teacher that gives you a pop quiz then teaches you algebra followed by a math quiz about fractions, which makes a HORRIBLE teacher! Thanx Man

[RagnorokLoki]

[BURNTicePRODUCTIONS]

I've only done this warm up twice and my vocal range DOUBLED, it's higher than it's ever been when I was in CHOIR. It took my out-of-shape voice and made it even better!

[zai4booc]

[TheSamDouce]

Hey everyone, I know most of you won’t bother reading this comment so I’m only talking to the few of you that read this. I’m Sam Douce and I’m aspiring to be a somewhat successful singer/song writer. I know that im only 15 years old and just started putting vids on my channel but it would mean the world if u spent 2 minutes of your time to check out my channel and hopefully subscribe if you like what you hear. Please thumbs up so it may help my dream come true.
