    Thank you :)

    I hope your try outs went well. If they didn't then remember that practice makes perfect. We all have the potential to be what we imagine :)

  • spider man 2 :D

  • Your going flat on the high notes,,but i think you know that yourself. but a nice finish to the song.

  • @themightytradman

    Thank you, and yes you are right on both counts :)

  • Thank you very much. I'm glad you found them useful :)

  • You're fantastic!

  • im from philippines..and im happy and enjoying how you sing...really makes me to relax...

  • Casablanca!

  • i subscribed. :) great videos.

  • i just had to subscribe to your channel... I Love your humility... I actually watched your three part lessons on how to sing before i saw this video & i must say you put the icing on the cake with this performance... I suggest you link this video to the lessons for all the skeptics out there who might stumble upon your works & prejudge you thinking you don't know what you are doing. And my second suggestion is DONT STOP posting such vidz. Thanx a millie... ;)

  • Are you using one of those vocal processors?

    Don't leave home without it LOL. Our band just got one. Money well spent . WOW.

    I did not know all the Pros use it as a matter of course.

    Your 3 videos on the basics of singing are very good btw.

    Cheers!

  • I've just watched all your videos on singing and going to use them to contribute to my training. I have a video of me singing on my channel I don't know if I'm even getting close. I feel a change over the past few months I've been using training myself. But looked to your videos for more help on getting even better.

    This songs also in Spiderman 2 . ;) Great job it sounded perfect J.

    Dave

  • ive watched how to sing and you said your not a vocal tutour or anythink who cares your exalent!

  • :) Love Frank Sinatra. You sound really great.

  • you sing very good

  • It's uplifting to watch someone enjoy what he is singing and this video is one good example. way to go, Jeff. this song is one of burt bacharach's best and I did a tribute to this, too. if you may, I'd like to post a response.

  • WOW i was watching your 3 parts to singing and you kept saying you are not a professional but you know certain things we can use and I thought okay this guy can't sing maybe that's why you said it. But when I heard this I have to admit you really have a great voice. Good stuff!!!

    Now I'm going to work on your tips. Can you keep posting videos that help us??? I really would appreciate it.

  • Thanks for the compliment :)

    I put those how to sing vids up a year and a half ago, in response to the request of a few friends. The only thing I can really add is that there is no point doing anything unless you can enjoy it. I know I do :)

  • You are right about enjoying it. I think I am really beginning to enjoy singing. I use to be into that rap phase where I would make hip hop tracks and it really didn't fit my personality. I wanted to learn how to sing but your videos have not only helped me but it actually motivated me to work even harder. So hopefully I will fix my horrible voice and breathe proper when I sing. Thanks a bunch!!! Have a great July 4th.

  • i really like the voice, ive pretty much became of fan of you in the past few hours, keep it up i like the loungy/sinatra voice!

  • I really like your voice and style.

    Thanks mate.

    Hugh from Spain

  • he is totally mouthing it... his mouth doesn't move nearly enough to sound out the words...

  • the audio is a bit out of sync with the video.

  • ur just one of those horrible people arent u ............. how do u sleep at night u mean person. i owuld like to see you to sing like that...........bet u cant. i dont like haters

  • Fucking Awsome tbh ii lurv all your covers &+ ii cba to comment on all of your vids so i am just commenting the 1st one i came too :) keep on singing and ii think you should go on x-factor or britains got talent :P anyway take care x

  • Great stuff! :]

    Was hoping to cover this so I decided to search up some covers of this song to see how others did, and I happened to stumble onto your video. Well worth clicking on!

  • I love that song too! Your really really good!

  • o my you really good i lovee your voice i really wish i had it i swear

  • Good voice =)

  • you have a beautiful voice!

  • haha i love this song.

    and your voice! :)

  • that is not you singing...

  • (making it positive lol) ya, it sounds like it's not him because he's really really good! Trust me it is.

  • lol....well you're surely not the 'see it to believe it type'

  • WOW BEATIFUL VOICE

  • you are amazing

    keep the good work doing

  • Thank you very much :)

  • i love your voice! and i watched all 3 of your videos :) thank you so much they were great!

  • Thank you :)

  • how did you get the instrument track to sing to?

  • It's on one of my Karaoke discs.

  • wow ur good.!!

  • Thank you :)

  • ure a very special person! seriously! i wish u the best. Davide from venezuela :)

  • Thank you Davide :)

  • and holy shit your good!!!

  • Thank you :)

    I think someone mentioned Spidey a while back so I'm sure you are right :)

  • this song was in spiderman 2 also lol!

  • Thank you. When I look at it now, it dosen't seem to bad! You have a lovely, rich voice on you. I'm a singer to, infact, I may be on Britain's Got Talent 09. So if I get to the live show's (scary mary) then please vote for me. (The name's Christy!)

  • Thank you Christy. The best of luck on BGT 09. Remember to never be too serious about it. Have fun :)

  • i'm really upset right now, i can't go down into town to count down to new year with all my friends. and i said i was coming. god i hate my dad. he's not even my dad. my real perants died in a car crash when i was 4. so now im stuck inside cos i'm "only 11".

  • You've got many years of independance ahead of you. My father died in August, and my Grandmother died a few months before that. I met my father when I was 21. I have a daughter who is 13 and I love her with all my heart. If I stopped her from going out, it would be because I would worry that she might get hurt, and if she did, I would blame myself for it. It's really difficult for parents to let go. I know. You just have to help them realise that you are growing up now :)

  • Smiling...thank you.

    Signed up to U-Tube soley to come and leave you a note.

    The world and I need people like youself. Keep up the good work. (BBC needs you too ;)

    May the sun shine on you even on rainy days :)

  • Thank you very much, and a happy new year to you :)

    I've been in television centre at Shepherds bush a few times, many years ago :)

  • Liked it very much. Very relaxing to listen to this song :-)

    Had a question, how and where can I get the backing music, to go along with my singing?

  • I played this one from one of my Karaoke discs. There's a great online database at kjpro that tells you what songs are on what discs :)

  • what do your headphones do?

  • I play the music through the headphones, and not the speakers. This means that when I sing, the microphone only records my voice. That enables me to add effects to the voice only before it gets mixed with the music :)

  • This is the best cover

    Simply the best one million stars for you

  • Thank you very much :)

  • ogm i love this song! its the soundtrack of a Greek film!!

    By the way,what recording machine do you have? i need to get one too but i dont know where from :(

  • It was also a song that was sung in the film "Butch cassidy and the sundance kid".

    I use my computer for recording. Some good software, and a good microphone :)

  • oh right..well my laptop's microphone and other devices i connect to it to record,are messed up :( The sound sounds scratchy and i'm lost without my singing!! haha! i'm so despirate at the moment cause i really really wanna sing but i dont where to record it! Heh! :P

  • Would you tell me the name of the software you used for recording ? Thanks

  • I used Pinnacle to record this video. I set the sound card to record "What u hear", then played the music in media player, and sang into the mic :)

  • wooww this is very nice! =D

    I <3 this song :)

  • Thank you :)

  • Perfect ! Sounds like orginal singer. I just gone through all 3 videos of your teaching how to sing. Can you give me some comments or shortcoming of my singing of this song because I never had any vocal training. Thanks !

  • Thank you. I will check it out.

  • Thanks ahead ! I used to listen Cliff Richard's song quite a bit particularly " The Young One " when I was young. Would you receive the request ? Thanks !

  • You´re songs are absolutly GREAT! I wish i could singing like you!!

    Best Wishes from Austria!:-)

  • Thank you again. The most important thing is that I really do enjoy singing. It's a real bonus that other people like what I do too :)

  • terrible

  • I love the fact that people think you are lip-syncing. As if someone who was simply making a fake video would go through the trouble of buying an expensive mike (going on appearance here), a pop filter, and studio monitor headphones. But yeah, you have a classic sounding singing voice, and your "How to sing" videos are really helpful. Keep it up, man.

  • Lol. Thank you. Every time someone says I'm lip synching, I take it as a big compliment :)

  • damn! this is good, especially the beginning of your singing is fantastic. one thing that i didn't like was your how to sing lessons don't work. it says those lessons are no longer available...that's sad!

  • Thank you very much.

    The how to sing vids are there. It's just that youtube does a lot of maintenance, and every now and again, the videos are unreachable.

  • Cantas muy bien las partes más bajas de la canción, pero los agudos te salen fatal y con muchos gallos :S:S:S

  • Luv your voice. Your voice sounds classical. By that I mean that it is a voice you could here in the good old times. Thus a very unique voice you have.

  • I meant hear*

  • Thank you very much. Singing is something I very much enjoy, and I think that's the important thing :)

  • so lip sinking!

  • jeffstunes fight is fake. these girls don't exist.

  • plaaayback! completely playback, if you don´t know how do things , don´t do it

  • Sigh!

    The video sync is out and I can understand people thinking that, but I've got loads of my own songs on here as well :)

  • hehe this song makes me happy ^_^

  • Thank you :)

  • no i dont think so

    its a playback:S

  • yo, jeff

    don't take it personally..but..

    i dont think that this is rally you singing..

    sry

    looks like playback..

    and i hope its not

    cuse u rock:D

    im just asking

  • I'm pretty sure it's him; it doesn't look like it's him singing because the sound lags a little.

    Excellent singing, by the way!

  • Thank you :)

    I take that as a compliment. All my vids are me singing the songs. A number of my earlier videos had audio/video sync problems, which resulted in the sound not matching the video.

    I managed to sort that out with the later ones :)

  • ok

    i belive u:D

    can u tell my personaly what can i do to really sing better:D

    like u?

  • I think that everybody is capable of singing well, except for those that have something physically wrong with their voice box. It's all about regular practice. I made 3 videos on here with singing tips, which can help to give you a start. You can find them amongst my videos. They are called "How to sing" part 1, part 2 and part 3 :)

    I hope you find them useful :)

  • i know:D

    i have alredy watch all three movies.

    they rock:D

    i watch them several times

  • you did very well. congrats, you know how to control your breathe, toning, and singing.

  • Thank you :)

  • Awesome :D

    Love that song :b

  • Thank you :)

  • Very good. Very.

  • Thank you :)

  • jeffstunes is good

  • Thank you :)

  • Jeff, you rock. Let me know what your recording/mic/voice processor setup is. perhaps a topic for another video?

  • Well I've changed a few things since this vid. I am just using the onboard effects on the soundcard, and an AKG C1000 microphone.

    I've since picked up a Tube pre-amp for the mic.

    I've been working a lot on production over the last year. Mainly for my own songs.

    It's all been good fun :)

  • wow your a professional.

  • Well, not exactly. Lol :)

    I'm not making a living out of singing, but I wouldn't mind it. I enjoy singing though.

    Thank you :)

  • haha spiderman 2!

  • Hi again! Do you know how to change from high note to low note without a break sound in between. If you know what I mean... The way to do it smoothly, if you do know, please help. Thank you!

  • I think you mean moving in and out of Falsetto.

    The answer. Lot's of practice. When you first start doing it, it can sound awful, but stick at it and have patience. It took me months.

  • Yeah your right its a great time:) thanks.

  • Yeah i think your voice is especially good for this type of music. The info on getting a richer tone with the diaphram probably helped. Is there anything else important to know about the rich tone?

  • Thank you :)

    There's not too much else to know for the basics. Once you start noticing the differences, you will probably start experimenting with different sounds. I know I did :)

    Discovering is all part of the fun :)

  • Your like my hero, i was struggling deciding weather or not to sing from chest throat or stomach your video helped. And i know what ever your doing works because you are very very good. Thank you:)

  • Thank you :)

    I don't claim to be a fantastic singer. I just really enjoy it, and that's one of the most important things, and it affects the results.

    I think we all have different voices, and like the sound of different voices too :)

  • how do you that effect? like, an echo effect. I really don't know what it is. can you tell me what it is and you do it?

  • The effect I'm using is "Reverb". It's part of the software installed with my sound card. A lot of sound cards have effects that you can turn on and off in their software control panel.

  • Reverb, uhh? Well I use a program call audacity that has that effect but I don't know how to set it up to sound as yours.

    I have another question, what is that thing in front in the microphone called and what it is for?

  • Audacity processes effects on the output. Your sound card control panel will process effects on the input, so you can hear them when you talk on the mic.

    The thing in front of the mic is a "Pop filter". It stops all the "P" sounds etc from overloading the mic. I made mine from a coat hanger and a pair of stockings, but you can buy them. I saw a guy in a studio do it, and he said it works just as well :)

  • what sound card would you recommend me to buy? (I don't have a lot of money)

  • You don't really need any special soundcard. I use a Sonic Fury card. A standard Sounblaster card is good enough to produce a song with several tracks.

  • i heard about that fight with those guys\girls who said you suckt...don't listen to them!! you are great! you are one of the best singer on utube:) respect!

  • Thanks mate :)

    I am enjoying myself to much to think about giving up. Lol :)

  • jeff man dont be arguing with little girls your videos and singing dont show you in such a way nxt time just ignore them! ;) keep it up

  • wow. very good job on this. your a really good singer.

  • Thank you very much :)

    It was fun to sing :)

  • Good job Jeff. One thing though, don't play their game. People like ingridxdxd have no talent, so they have to rip on others who do to make themselves feel better. By playing their game you are allowing them to steal your thunder. Kill em with kindness.

  • Thank you :)

    I'm bored with them now, so I blocked them :)

  • Burt Bacharach is a magnificent song writer. Thanks for this beautiful interpretation.

  • Thank you :)

    It always reminds me of the movie :)

  • say when you found it

  • I've just watched it. It's actually quite funny. Considering I've still got your comments on my video. The statements you made on your video are going to struggle to have any credibility.

    I've commented on it too :)

  • XD now the video is finish!

    search on: fuck you jeffstune

  • It's amusing in a twisted sort of way. That's no surprise really, considering you were the one that put it together.

    You really need to brush up on your spelling though. It's diabolical!!!

  • haha that is what I was thinking lol

  • we're going to make a video for you to

  • Please do. Perhaps you can now see how seriously I take insults. I always turn them into humour.

    Can't wait to see your video.

  • you were afraid to tell people you lost.

    so you blockd us and told people you won.

    and that is childish and SO not FAIR!? why jeff, why did you tell people YOU won? that was just SO selfish.. but we're BACK..

  • Couldn't keep away eh?

    I realised your first blocked me when I couldn't reply to your message.

    I see you've started another account.

    You probably came back because I'm one of a very few people that will hold a conversation with you. I don't mind talking to you. Your insults are meaningless to me, as you are anonymous. It's like being insulted by a robot. No identity, no meaning. Welcome back. Did you see my video dedicated to you?

  • you're not innocent. 1 you blocked us so you could tell people you won, you're a pussy!

    that's not fair at all! but, we're back jeff!

    don't think we were that dumb, BECAUSE..you are the dumb one

  • by the way what is the VIDEO called? -.-

    You said you didn't want to use your time on us, why do you make a video about it then?

    loser old man

  • I said you blocked me first. Being old, means I've had more years to learn, and one of my specialities is technology.

    I don't really care about who wins and who loses. Who is the best and who is the worst. That's a child's game. I came on here to have fun. My idea of having fun is making videos about all sorts of things. Your idea of fun is probably insulting people anonymously. Each to their own.

    Search for "Jeffhasspoken". You are famous now :)

    Remember it's comedy.

  • I am reminded of Johnaton Gabriel's "Greater Internet Dickwad" Theory.

    Give a person the feeling of being anonymous, an audience, and they turn into a dickwad.

    Nice singing by the way =p

  • You told everyone WE blocked you, and that WE gave up! you lied to everyone.. the truth is YOU BLOCKED us, so you could tell everyone you won!! but really, you didn't! so, we're back old man! WE'RE back.. we're not that stupid

  • Old, Jeffstunes!! did you really think you were so smart?

  • god bless you and for them singing videos they are very helpful

  • Thank you :)

    It's all stuff that I thought some people might find useful, and quite a few have, so that pleases me :)

  • dang ive been lookin for this instrumental cuz ima sing it too cuz im making a lil movie type thing. haha. cant find it tho :(

  • You are funny and gentle... Thats more important than singing perfectly...

  • Thank you :)

  • That's not quite an example cause it's almost a spoken song! And you get out of tune sometimes, my friend...

  • I have to admit that you have a marvelous voice. And you sang one of my favorite songs! Thanks for sharing this with us! (I really wonder what Simon Cowell would say if he heard you sing this!).

  • Thank you :)

    This is one of those happy songs that was fun to sing. I'm not too sure about Simon Cowell. Not everybody agrees with him, but he always speaks the truth. Whether it hurts or not. I respect that.

  • I have always completely despised this repulsive song..but when you sing it, I actually like it! What's with that??!!You are just too cute.

  • Lol. Thank you :)

    It's a song you either love or hate. I always remember it from the film "Butch cassidy and the sundance kid"

  • i just can't get enough of this...and tesselator...was that for real or was it a joke?

  • Thank you very much :)

    Yes, Tesselator was joking. I did a funny video about a hater I had recently, and he has seen it :)

    It's called "Funeral for a hater", and is featured on my channel :)

  • oh:)) i'll watch it:) what is it about that guy with chocolate rain...did he lose his voice or what?

  • Well since haters are getting cred points for commenting on this vid. can I join in? Let's see..

    YOU"RE OLD!!!

    Oh, wait, I'm older - can't use that one.

    Your singing sucks!

    Oh, wait, mine is worse and there was MUCH worse on the Lawrence Welk and they were paid pros. Grr, can't use that on either.

    I know: Your mic, your spit guard, your headphones are cheap and your hair is short! AND your "THE END" sign is full of satanic/phallic symbols!

    Haha! I nailed you buddy!!!

    I Win! I win! :D

  • Pleze notis thu mispelled wurds & mising werds & CAPS & uther sighns uv haiterizums tu nough thet I amm a ture haiter!

  • Wow!

    I'm convinced :)

    Lol :)
