I think you explain things really well. Would you be able to do a lesson on opening the throat & exercises on how to KEEP IT OPEN when you start singing as this is what I find me and a lot of others find hard to do when starting out. Kind Regards.
Practice with your nose plugged, the sound coming out of you should not change when you plug your nose, if it does... you know you're doing something wrong
Okay you are so amazing for sharing your knowledge with us... I just hit my first whistle like note effortlessly with your "put your finger in front of your nose and mouth and only feel the warm air" tip... let's just hope I can continue doing this! Thanks for helping me understand how my instrument works :)
Very good tips. My only little complaint is on higher notes it's more pressure less air. He's right the pressure is not on the larynx but in the diaphragm, back, abs and butt muscles.
Does anyone else have problems as to WHERE you can excersize and sing? Because I live in an apartment and I'm so afraid of annoying my neighbours...And it's not fun to sing when you have to feel embarrased and guilty the whole time nad worried about how good it sounds. I've just started to sing so it won't sound perfect, but I can't get better if I don't practice!
Can you go out in the middle of the countryside and sing? Or maybe you could sing in the shower. I sing in the shower and in places where there are no people.
try just going for a drive ;) u're by urself, and no one's gonna hear ya. The only "bad" thing is that people might C u singing....but really, that ain't so bad!
"Vocal Gun" rocks, I've been using it on your other exercises too.
Hey thank for your generous spirit. So many teachers make you spend a lot of time and money with them before they give up the good stuff but the great teachers like you truly love your topic and can't imagine not wanting to help others enjoy it too. Many can do well, few can teach well.
Hi Tim.. what a sweetheart you are to give FREE lessons to the world.... that's just so cool!! I know there are tons of people around the world who cannot afford singing lessons, and what you are doing is very kind and generous of you! God bless you for your generousity! warm regards, karen.
thanks, i agree with what you say. i just got the grip of sort of what your talking about in my last voice lesson and i was able to sing for the first time a clear A when only the day before the top of my range was barley a G.
i definitely recommend what your saying unlike other people ive seen on youtube
I see a lot of people in american idol saying they sang everyday in choir. Singing by itself probably won't help you get better, that's why there's voice exercizes.
i got the warmth thingy but the problem with me is that when i try to hit the high not my voice gets all like dry ya know.... do u think its because im trying to hard or something??? Please msg me back.... thnx
i dont mean to sound like a bigot or anything, but are these exercises actually worth doin?and how much do they improve your singing?basically what i wanna know is, if your born a bad singer, are you always gonna be a bad singer?
Anybody can learn to sing and to make the best of their voice to flow through notes and to hold them with enough practice anybody can be a ''good'' singer once they understand it but they sound of your voice as you do so is oviouslly unique and natural to you so few can be ''great'' if this makes sence?
anyone can learn to hit notes with their voice, as long as theyre not completely tone deaf. but hitting notes and having a 'good' voice are two different things. you are either born with a good voice or not, but with training you can learn to hit notes. which is basically what untrained people associate with a good voice.
3 Questions...could you damage your voice not warmin up...first??? becuz i sing Pow-wow and it involves alot of power and hight and sudden bass/lows...most of the time i just belt it out right away...2nd, Is it possible to stay good for a really long period of time???cuz i usualy slice out in about 3 songs...3rd i do most of these tips and some how i still need to take a breath even when i have air left....does it have to do with holdin breath or something?????
Wow thank you so much, I have always wanted a reference point in terms of singing theory and this definitely helps! I have a good ear but i need to make my voice stronger and i could never afford real lessons, but you have given me something to work with!
Your video was extremely helpful. I used to be in choir before I entered high school, but when I moved on up, I switched to orchestra. Hence the fact that my voice now resonates as well as dying cats. So thanks so much. I'll be looking at your other lessons as well.
they do make u better becuse ur vocals are not used to sining unless u sing 24/7 and the lessons give ur vocals exeorsise and make ur voice sound good.
Thank you sir I like your sincerity. I'm a huge offender of tightening up on high notes - I've just used my falsetto to handle the higher stuff. Unless you like doo-wop that technique of mine isn't pretty :D
One question ? ummmmm .... What if..... your voice like ppl would say (sucks) and u are scared of singing and u feel like u dont even know how to use ur voice , can u learn how to sing i mean like decent singing ?
I'm a decent guitarist and I can hear pitches... but I recorded myself singing the other day and it REALLY SUCKED... your lesson will hopefully help... I'm so ashamed I ever song in front of anybody ever...
