Cbluesrocker, my thoughts exactly, especially when he actually does NOT sing in this video presentation, he basically emits sounds (notes), not sings them in any manner whatsoever
Yeah... guys. Nobody would ever sing with all 6 of these octaves. You would use 3 or 4... MAYBE 5. It's just a cool video showing VOCAL range. Not singing range.
those who dislike this are certainly not singing... this is not about how to sing beautiful rahter just how to use the technique...of course you don't need 6octaves...tell me a song using it....but if your range is wider the middle register of your voice will have better quality and it will be easier to use...so don't perceive this technical exercise as a performance!!!
This just sounds bad. I don't care that your range is A0 to A6 if none of those notes sound appealing. I'd rather hear a guy with perfect tone and support and a great amount of power sing an octave than someone singing like you even if they could sing more than 10 octaves.
Yeah, but do any of those notes sound good? Hitting the note is one thing, but singing in a way that's appealing to the ear is quite another. I find that this Singing Success stuff is bogus -- they sing the high notes in a nasal, whiny, pure falsetto. It's not head voice. It's not nice to listen to.
Let's hear you sing a song in those top octaves. They are not useable for actual singing -- unless you are in the pig squeal scene from Deliverance. Stupid bullshit.
I think this is impressive, but I "only" count four octaves covered in the scales with the student, not five - it starts in the second octave and goes to the sixth = four octaves covered per rendition of the exercise.
@mitchellzastey the song is called "All In Your Mind" by Brett Manning. You can listen to that and other songs by brett on his myspace page. hope i helped :D
You should be sued for false advertisement. I've seen your sites and read some of your "vocal coaching" cd advice and you sir are either an idiot or tonally brain dead. Go to a real voice teacher and READ AND COMPREHEND vocal pedagogy books. THAT'S the tip to becoming a good singer and musician. NOT this b.s.
imagine octave googol1000 godillion x or octave infinity all with perfect pitch, tune, sound, and emotion, that would be universe idol finalist or the voice of churubims
They're actually squealing...screaming...adding vibrato to the notes, using head voice, whatever ya gotta do to hit the note and trying not to strain ...That's what it looks like... But I heard a reecording of Bretts voice hitting a G# (over c4)...Then all the way up to a g# over round c5. - Honestly this is a terrible example of his octave range....He sounds like a joke here. - Go to his actual website, and click on "About Brett". - u'll hear him sing for real. He
I never was a fan of this man's voice. I hate to say it, but I think he sucks as a singer. So it blows my mind that he is such an amazing teacher (which many people keep attesting too. Many very great singers)
Octave 1 my ass. He could barely do Octave 2. Those weren't notes, actually I wouldn't even call it vocal fry. To think I actually use his cd's!!! HAHA! He may be good at training other people but he himself isn't very good.
@PinkBabey He was hitting the notes with his vocal cords. No one would sing way down there; It's too low to sound normal because the vocal cords are too bunched up. The point is he can hit those notes without strain.
@aidanivesdavis (I never mentioned the word sing.) Yeah no strain, because he didn't hit them. It was worse than his vocal fry. Still, whatever. If that was the point then I guess he fulfilled half of it. So much for no strain if you can't use those notes.
@PinkBabey He did hit the notes: he made the pitch. You can't use those notes, but you can use them to build substance to the notes above and create a richer tone.
@aidanivesdavis And I never said it sounded unatural, I just implied that he was no where near hitting that last note in octave 1. And besides, if it's too low to sound normal then how do you know he's hitting it?
@PhilipOMeara he is hayley wiliams vocal coach...so yeah...celebrity vocal coach, and himself?, you know who uses his products? many people, like the guy from RED for example. hes very well known.
Seriously? This is what you call singing. Just because you can make a sound with your cords does not mean that note is in a range that anyone would ever want to hear you sing in.
certainly impressive, but not quite 6 octave range in my opinion. For example, A0 isn't even vocalized so, althought the noise may match the tone, under no circumstance could it be regarded as sounding a note.
@alezandersantiago Yeah, see. That's why I'm confused about my own range. My falsetto can get sickening high (not as high as Brett's, though) but some say the falsetto notes count and others don't. A few years ago, I had a vocal coach that said it's not about how long you can sustain the note so long as you can hit it...and that's what determines your range. Sadly, I had to leave the baritones and move up to the 1st tenor section of the concert choir. :-p
I see what you're saying. You're more concerned with whether or no you can just HIT the note, you don't really care how, as long as it still works. That's fair, and it DOES count for SOMETHING. It's just that if we counted non full-voiced singing when measuring someone's range, it probably wouldn't be as impressive sounding when compared to other singers as he makes it sound. That's all that's really bothering ME (and probably a number of others who see this) about it.
I still think his voice is good and I'm not dissing him. And your view point makes sense. All I'm saying is that since most really impressive singers don't seem to make it past 4 octaves (but that's ONLY counting full voice) it thusly seems to give some false impression that his singing range is something practically unheard of. That would make the connotations seem (possibly deliberately?) misleading when he boasts a 5-6 octave range. Although 4 or close to it is STILL impressive.
Usually, when people refer to their voice range and the amount of octaves to it, they reffer to the amount of notes they can hit with their full voice. Some impressive singers who are usually described as having a 4 octave singing range, such as Chris Cornell for instance, can go both lower and higher than that with modal singing and vocal fry, but the notes they hit that aren't full voice still aren't counted. I'm sure his vocal range IS impressive! Just not like he says.
Wait, is this guy counting vocal fry and modal singing as part of his voice range? Because USUALLY, most singers, when reffering to the octaves of their singing range, usually refer to their FULL voice, not vocal frying and modal singing... I'm sure his full voice range is still impressive, but not 5 - 6 octaves.
should bring back days when they had like 100 artist all different in charts and people could decide what they bought from record shops now you get artists like leona lewis whose does a weak version of mariah carey i mean do we wanna hear a wekaer version that sounds abit like her i personally don't like leona s voice i find the squeeky high sounds annoying she actually ruined that run song my opinion and i like what the hell i like so if someone says dont say that imy ears i can like wft want
so its how high you are thats about octaves well what does tony braxton go cause he voice is quite deep but its a great voice there are good singers who aint sopranos what are octaves anyway
i have 2 octaves and sing with a light mix i can go pretty high my teacher says i didnt sing my full voice he could tell with 50 mins lesson that i was someone whom he suspected sang louder at home and in tune i can go high but not very low am a alto this is what i know about my voice i hit one of the highest notes i ve ever used today because i was afraid of breaking my voice so wasn't letting myself go higher
@kcmet79 Actually, I think that at least 3 octaves there are useless. Both the too low and the too high. They don't sound pretty. Whay produce them anyways?
@kcmet79 - Maybe if you want to harmonize with a baritone singer... Still, I think such voice doesn't really go that low. I say, let the bass guitar do the low sounds, that's what it's made for.
I think Brett is an awesome vocal coach,and I've learned a lot from his lessons. My range has also significantly improved.I am gradually gaining notes, yes, at first it begins as a weak "vocal fry."But as I continue to practice,I develop meat and depth to those notes.I don't think Brett would be a world-renowned coach if he doesn't know what he's doing, students continue to come,so he must be doing something right.
Yes, maybe those notes don't sound natural, but if you can do that, you have way more potential to actually sing really high notes with a normal voice. Like Mariah Carey, she has an awesome voice and range. But her range went so high that at a point it was just a whistle sound, which sounds "unnatural" or "unusable" according to some. Her notes are also so low that she whispers sometimes. But she found how to use it, and it sounded awesome.
This is a failed 6 octave range...by his definition...my range cannot be determined by a full piano seeing as to how I can go robotic doing notes lower than C1 and squeal higher than C6...which is what he's doing...I thought your range was determined by the notes you can actually "sing" not by the noises you can make...I thought this guy was a professional...
@Blazun05X Those were my first thoughts too. - I have yet to try this program, but seeing how he's mastered people's voices like no other coach, he knows what he's doing. He may be squealing/making odd sounds to hit a note...It just shows you his vocal chords have completely flexed...He can do whatever he wants with it. He can instill that ability in others. Unless you're going to be an opera singer, those low/high notes cannot be used. Brett isn't an opera singer from my understanding.
@Blazun05X Try the program before putting it down. Spend 3-4 months practicing with it...and If you're voice has not improved; it's either you suck or he does ...And quite frankly, anyone who has tried his program has really really proven your theory wrong, about how un-professional he is. ;).
@Blazun05X One more thing, that squeal, i've learned it turns into an amazing hit-note sustained and brought out however you want whether it's with vocal fry or with extreme vibrato. - Check out the band "Ahmir" , their cover of "Mine - Taylor Swift" . The smaller creepy guy, he hits a note towards the end, that's over c5, i think it's a g#....It's a real big squeal, but a perfect one...It's the only way a male can hit a note like that; and of course again unless you're an opera singer.
@loko2468 lol u call me an idiot, yet you have nothing else to say... - It's because you can't* say anything. Judging by your empty answer and use-less insult, you know nothing about singing. :p. So why comment?
@loko2468 Lol...You still confirm you know nothing about singing/music so why are u still talking? Do you like to be shamed? - How is teaching how to widen your vocal range a gimmick? The more you stretch and longer u practice, the more those notes start to clarify. Which is why they squeak that high..You can't hit those notes; oh right u don't know what a note is...or how to play an instrument i'm guessing...Jeez it's hard to talk to you...You fail....I should search: How to speak to a monkey.
@loko2468 Btw you foolish monkey, which is what i have to call you , apologies...If he really was a gimmick, he wouldn't be able to name so many actual stars he has helped train. They would protest if he was a fake. Also, If he was so much of a fake, u wouldn't be able to get your money back once you buy the program. - He's got a 6 month back guarantee that he repeats so much...There are no protests about it on the internet, meaning it is true.
@loko2468 One more proof is the fact that you and the couple/few other people trying to bring the program down is that none of you have actually bought the program to be talking garbage rofl, just comes to show you how low-life you are. ;). - Would you like to continue to be shamed? Or can you stop talking to me? - You really have nothing useful to say...Aside from calling me a bitch or an idiot and unable to respond to anything i say...lmao....
@loko2468 I rather talk to my pug; at least he doesn't talk from his ass. - Better yet, he doesn't know how to communicate in language, so he's smart: he doesn't talk at all :) ; if you can't follow a person's advice..why not follow a dog, who's a bit higher than you are in capacity?
@loko2468 Hm , i'm a pianist...And I type a lot - so I end up typing 4 parragraphs instead of one; get it? :) - But, why would you call me a gullible twat, if you've never even tried the program ? When I have seen people with the program and the results of what 3 months of practice with it can do....Apart from the fact that if u don't like it u can just return it and u get ur money...why you hatin' on the guy?
@loko2468 oh P.S.- Check ahmir's "Mine" ...towards the end round 3:05, Check out the little creepy guy to the left...That guy sings using this same technique...U gonna tel me dats not cool sht?
@Blazun05X He doesn't have the creamiest low end, but the vocal fry you are hearing down there is because at very low frequencies, you can actually HEAR the individual vibrations. That's the nature of very low frequency sounds. Now, if he had more overtones down there to butter it up, then maybe it would sound better. Just because he doesn't *excel* at such deep notes, does not mean he is not singing.
@Blazun05X He's making both the high and the low notes in the same way he sings his middle notes. The reason why no one would ever sing that high or low is because you sound like a bird if you go that high and you sound like some kind of sea monster if you go that low. Neither of which anyone wants to hear in a song. That squeal is whistle voice.
this guy IS a professional. no one can sing 6 octaves and only a few people can "make noises" through 6 octaves so you better think before you open your mouth (you write something stupid)
@tinabanbridge Yea...and I may not be a "professional" but I am a vocal major and I can "make noises" through a 6 octave range...and I know plenty of other people that can as well...however...to say this is apart of your vocal range is false...your vocal range is determined by the notes you can hit/sing without strain...and there was obvious straining...I've thought this through...so the next time you type something...make sure you know the facts about the person/topic you are typing about
but most people are not vocal majors and can't sing well so i was right, only a few people can "make noises" through a 6 octave range....i just don't understand why its a problem that he demostrated a skill people may not know about... this guy can sing awesome as hell, his technical skills are great, he helped a lot of people to learn how to sing better so why wouldnt he be a professional? just because he did this video (maybe he didnt mean it, he was just having fun...) ?
@dancersingerkelly Kelly, you really don't seem very smart. Have you ever used GOOGLE? Just Google "Brett Manning's Singing Success" and see what you find! Geez!
does it matter why anyone watched the video? I was directed here by a video making fun of him, which he deserves. He may very well be a good singer, but anyone who made the noises he made has got a few jokes coming his way, don't you think?

should bring back days when they had like 100 artist all different in charts and people could decide what they bought from record shops now you get artists like leona lewis whose does a weak version of mariah carey i mean do we wanna hear a wekaer version that sounds abit like her i personally don't like leona s voice i find the squeeky high sounds annoying she actually ruined that run song my opinion and i like what the hell i like so if someone says dont say that imy ears i can like wft want

@NighttimeBird yep. Mariah truly has 5 usable octaves. This guy's bottom and top end = joke.
kcmet79 10 months ago
@kcmet79 They are not completely useless. It all depends. Listen to Faith No More's 'King for a Day'. It's one example of how to use those notes.
Busia63 10 months ago
@kcmet79 - Maybe if you want to harmonize with a baritone singer... Still, I think such voice doesn't really go that low. I say, let the bass guitar do the low sounds, that's what it's made for.

I think Brett is an awesome vocal coach,and I've learned a lot from his lessons. My range has also significantly improved.I am gradually gaining notes, yes, at first it begins as a weak "vocal fry."But as I continue to practice,I develop meat and depth to those notes.I don't think Brett would be a world-renowned coach if he doesn't know what he's doing, students continue to come,so he must be doing something right.
idza777 11 months ago
Yes, maybe those notes don't sound natural, but if you can do that, you have way more potential to actually sing really high notes with a normal voice. Like Mariah Carey, she has an awesome voice and range. But her range went so high that at a point it was just a whistle sound, which sounds "unnatural" or "unusable" according to some. Her notes are also so low that she whispers sometimes. But she found how to use it, and it sounded awesome.

This is a failed 6 octave range...by his definition...my range cannot be determined by a full piano seeing as to how I can go robotic doing notes lower than C1 and squeal higher than C6...which is what he's doing...I thought your range was determined by the notes you can actually "sing" not by the noises you can make...I thought this guy was a professional...

Vocal range ≠ Singing range....
gibonijuliano 5 months ago
@Blazun05X Those were my first thoughts too. - I have yet to try this program, but seeing how he's mastered people's voices like no other coach, he knows what he's doing. He may be squealing/making odd sounds to hit a note...It just shows you his vocal chords have completely flexed...He can do whatever he wants with it. He can instill that ability in others. Unless you're going to be an opera singer, those low/high notes cannot be used. Brett isn't an opera singer from my understanding.
Arturostunes 5 months ago
@Blazun05X Try the program before putting it down. Spend 3-4 months practicing with it...and If you're voice has not improved; it's either you suck or he does ...And quite frankly, anyone who has tried his program has really really proven your theory wrong, about how un-professional he is. ;).
Arturostunes 5 months ago
@Blazun05X One more thing, that squeal, i've learned it turns into an amazing hit-note sustained and brought out however you want whether it's with vocal fry or with extreme vibrato. - Check out the band "Ahmir" , their cover of "Mine - Taylor Swift" . The smaller creepy guy, he hits a note towards the end, that's over c5, i think it's a g#....It's a real big squeal, but a perfect one...It's the only way a male can hit a note like that; and of course again unless you're an opera singer.

@loko2468 Lol...You still confirm you know nothing about singing/music so why are u still talking? Do you like to be shamed? - How is teaching how to widen your vocal range a gimmick? The more you stretch and longer u practice, the more those notes start to clarify. Which is why they squeak that high..You can't hit those notes; oh right u don't know what a note is...or how to play an instrument i'm guessing...Jeez it's hard to talk to you...You fail....I should search: How to speak to a monkey.
Arturostunes 5 months ago
@loko2468 Btw you foolish monkey, which is what i have to call you , apologies...If he really was a gimmick, he wouldn't be able to name so many actual stars he has helped train. They would protest if he was a fake. Also, If he was so much of a fake, u wouldn't be able to get your money back once you buy the program. - He's got a 6 month back guarantee that he repeats so much...There are no protests about it on the internet, meaning it is true.
Arturostunes 5 months ago
@loko2468 One more proof is the fact that you and the couple/few other people trying to bring the program down is that none of you have actually bought the program to be talking garbage rofl, just comes to show you how low-life you are. ;). - Would you like to continue to be shamed? Or can you stop talking to me? - You really have nothing useful to say...Aside from calling me a bitch or an idiot and unable to respond to anything i say...lmao....

When I have seen people with the program and the results of what 3 months of practice with it can do....Apart from the fact that if u don't like it u can just return it and u get ur money...why you hatin' on the guy?

Arturostunes 5 months ago
@Blazun05X He doesn't have the creamiest low end, but the vocal fry you are hearing down there is because at very low frequencies, you can actually HEAR the individual vibrations. That's the nature of very low frequency sounds. Now, if he had more overtones down there to butter it up, then maybe it would sound better. Just because he doesn't *excel* at such deep notes, does not mean he is not singing.
danielmrussell 5 months ago
@Blazun05X He's making both the high and the low notes in the same way he sings his middle notes. The reason why no one would ever sing that high or low is because you sound like a bird if you go that high and you sound like some kind of sea monster if you go that low. Neither of which anyone wants to hear in a song. That squeal is whistle voice.
And the piano goes from A0 to C8.

@tinabanbridge Yea...and I may not be a "professional" but I am a vocal major and I can "make noises" through a 6 octave range...and I know plenty of other people that can as well...however...to say this is apart of your vocal range is false...your vocal range is determined by the notes you can hit/sing without strain...and there was obvious straining...I've thought this through...so the next time you type something...make sure you know the facts about the person/topic you are typing about
Blazun05X 5 months ago
@Blazun05X
but most people are not vocal majors and can't sing well so i was right, only a few people can "make noises" through a 6 octave range....i just don't understand why its a problem that he demostrated a skill people may not know about... this guy can sing awesome as hell, his technical skills are great, he helped a lot of people to learn how to sing better so why wouldnt he be a professional? just because he did this video (maybe he didnt mean it, he was just having fun...) ?
