[001Jocey]

Thank You Eric! Because of your amazing techniques I've been able to improve all aspects of my voice, please don't stop your tips, we need them.lol

[Brolin555666]

Love it!!!!

[ukyomonster]

Do I have to open my jaw all the way or should I just keep it open enough?

[karp47]

Thanks so much for the videos

[anabobana20]

Can this help if your voice is strained?

[morteza99]

thumbs up if u warm up with his videos then sing. thank u for Ur helpful videos

[fahkyooh]

wow.. you are amazing. thank you so much. my childhood voice is slowly coming back!

[wolfl13xcea]

im baretone and wanna g hit high note but i cant and these videos are really helping!!!!

lol wakawaka flame:3

[lightningstrike43]

this really helped, but it was a hell of a tongue twister at first!

[LoudCassidy]

Hahaha. It looks like I have a frog throat when I do the localocaloca lolol.

[LaxHockey47]

will these exercises help me with my voice sounding thin? I can sing low and high notes very well but my tone is horrible... my low notes are very thin and through recordings there always seems to be a kind of high undertone that makes my voice sound horrible. If there are any other solutions to this problem please let me know!

[1REVINT]

@EricArceneaux: I used to sing when I was a christian. But I stoped and have been focusing on college. But I definitely want to keep working on my music talent and your videos are helping me sooo much. Thanks a lot for explaining things in such a simple way.

[SuperDreamers23]

thanks a lot it helped me out of my problem ^^



[littlepetitedancer]

thank you so much! i never sing without watching this video first :D

[pinkykinky34567]

this is the best training video on youtube. this has helped me so much thank you!!!

[shplog2]

Thanks!



[sleezybz]

wakawakawakawaka flame

[SamMusical]

lady gagagagaga!!

[Sofiesmusic19]

really helpfull thx

[davan666]

one of the best voice coaches on youtube. thank you so much eric

[KimmFluff]

Embarressing but it works lmao :)

[58shadesofgray]

This is my favourite exercise! I've been doing it for a few months now and my range is expanding, everything just gets better you're such an amazing teacher! :) :)

[InstaQwerty]

It says "The content owner has not made this video available on mobile" I warm up on my iPhone please make that possible again?

[caassandraaaS]

"LAGA" means "cooking" in swedish hahahah feels really funny to say/ sing it haha.

[mintochu]

I can't dooo this!! XD I'm just laughing all over the place! XD It is too funnnny!!!

[leya2fabulous]

i cant do this shhhhh......language

im getting so mad

[GrEEnMachiine2]

Do you have to open your mouth really wide or just so it opens? if that makes sense

[TonEd622]

I'm definitely gonna need this for myself!!!

[JellyBeanJin]

These videos are awesome :D BUT...I still make sure to only do it while my parents and brother aren't home...but my poor cat is sitting across from me and has probably figured that i've lost my mind.....

[heavenly825]

This really is helping me alot ,, i thought it would not help but i noticed instant results!!

[yulivl]

Just take it seriously you all.

[theANARETO]

LADY + GAGA = LAGA :D

[MrGeeetar]

how often do you do this?

[maiteanahi22]

@MrGeeetar Everyday or set up a schedule and do it one day yes another no and then yes, so you rest your voice to keep on going :D

[zomaruhitaku]

Well that explains the strain when i sing i always use my jaw

[HuyyNguyen]

Is it bad if it feels like I'm not saying La and Ga correctly? I feel like I'm saying it as if my mouth is numb or something

[TonHyukOTP]

@HuyyNguyen Like he says in the vid, if it sounds good you're probably doing it wrong! With your mouth dropped wide open it's going to feel weird saying just about anything.

[PapuaGurl]

this really helps..

thank you

[hiphopgal999]

lmao ! the way i sounded put me off ever wanted to sing again ! good job pro, its very useful though :D

[ButtercupTulip]

It's hard to do this exercise, when I keep laughing at myself haha.

[meyarz]

for me its the people who live either side of me, i live in a terreced house lol i imagine after finaly figuring out wtf the noise is, are now sitting there ptsl - that or they've turned the tv up!

[TruMuzikLover]

Lol I use this method so much, I always say "Make sure your chin is staying still, no moving of the jaw even if you see me doing it...Do what I say and not how I mess up." Lmbo I be on point too.

[Elizabeth210186]

I have a sore tongue and mouth after this exercise :))))

[xxlovellieX5]

@Elizabeth210186 it's normal right???!!! lol

[TheMrherby101]

For all you that doubt this video its really brilliant. I've been doing this for around 3 weeks daily (Thats the full set of warmup videos) i can sing 2 1/2 octaves :)

[AlwaysEMV]

''ladies join in now'' whut! lol but I can't do the high ones :d

[NicoleCavallaro]

@AlwaysEMV just do what u can. dont push ur voice to hit a certain note. dont push from ur throat. push from ur stomach. use ur tummy muscles

[littlemizzchecky77]

@AlwaysEMV Do the parts that naturally suit your voice, i think he just says girls and boys for generalisation some girls have low singing voice and some men have high singing voices dont force you voice to do anything is doesnt want to do =)

[amberwoo23]

As I am doing the "La Ga's" my father walked in and I recieved the strangest look ever. (:

[TheRealPV2Ryan]

The first time I tried this I felt ridiculous e cause I gleeked... but they totally help. Thanks for the postage man.

[AndreaCharlaine]

These exercises make me feel like Adam Sandler. Hahaha

[chlochlohynes]

I cant fucking do it

[ipwnnoobzinthebut]

@chlochlohynes dont worry, it all comes with practise

[sammydems]

Your lessons are awesome, Eric. I've wanted to learn to sing for a long time but can't afford to devote the money to it, but with your lessons I can hear myself improving. Thank you.

[Tanysoh]

"If you sound good doing this, then your doing it wrong." Totally made me laugh!

[Divalicious1413Divaz]

omg he is so awsome

Thumbs up if u agree

[WesAmbler]

@Divalicious1413Divaz lol, we all agree..but we're not giving u thumbs up

[11100sam]

[OfficialBbChannel]

this man FULLY KNOWS WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT!! ididnt think icould sing, ijust tried it to see what id be like. but it works soooo good!!

[bemdav]

Thank you so much, you are very helpful. I appreciate what you're doing for us, really, thank you! :)

[BrookeLynnMann]

any chance you could do a vid with a higher rage??? Im a girl but i have a really large range. I quite easily get the male part and i found i could have gone higher with the female part.

[SandedFaceless666]

I noticed these are similar to the exercises in the Zen of Screaming. I was just curious though: I'm a (woman) death metal vocalist and I never used to warm up although I know how scream, (which is in the nasal cavity and using your diaphragm), I realise this alone is pretty problematic. Anyway, my voice has gotten a bit harsh over the past couple of weeks preparing for a gig. Do you think that I may have developed Screamers Nodules? How long is the vocal rest period for this? :/

[ToriPeebs]

LAGA LAGA LAGA LAAAAAAAA

parents come home

wtf are u doing!?!?!? xD this rly happened >.<

[conneecj3]

@ToriPeebs that happened to me too ! lol

[ajaco10]

@ToriPeebs it sounds like lady gaga

[JimPatrick0]

@ToriPeebs lmao me too

[july96xoxo]

[AllmondJoy9]

You're the greatest dude! Thanks for putting up these lessons for ppl that have no money(like me) haha But I can now reach a high note that i never could before! Thanks!

[1600407]

DOES SMOKIN MARY J HAVE AN EFFECT ON YOUR SINGING VOICE????!!! PLEASE I GOTTA KNOW!!!!!!

[TheRawr80]

@1600407 Yeah, it does.

[jeremydeon09]

@1600407 yea cuz...it does

[lpden]

@1600407 It does, but then again, there are so many singers that smoke, and drink and they still sound great. I'm not encouraging to smoke, obviously if you enjoy it, do it in moderation, prioritise what's more important to you. But smoking doesn't mean that you'll never be able to sing.

[bristay1]

@1600407 yes, overtime. i use to verrry good. and it was very easy to me. now its a struggle to sound how i use to. its not smooth anymore and i cant hit as msny notes.you have a choice. weed or ur voice?

[pilchard96]

@1600407 Lets put it this way, I was smoking some of God's own last night and I can really feel the effect, and I am in no way a regular smoker.

[andykins118118]

the hardest part for these for me is not laughing at myself :)

these videos have helped a ton though

[Emadd9]

Thanks for your help!  Glad I found your videos.

[FAN3LL1]

[Doraezha]

This is amazing. You're way better the my previous choir teacher!

[HighlandCountyDiesel]

Felt like he was really watching me when my chin was bobbing up and down and he turns and said Make sure your chin is staying still with that "i caught you look"

[greenjewel73]

@HighlandCountyDiesel haha me too! right when I did it that's when he said it...I was like umm.....how'd you know?? lol

[Darkearthbound]

Does anyone else feel like they are the only teens watching this?

[Shaniathepunko]

[BrittanyAnnH12345]

@Darkearthbound Not anymore since I can see all the comments from several different people!

[iamacupcakee]

[Littlemissleci]

but you sound good doing it, you must be doing it wrong :P

[Wymorin01]

Is it normal that i struggle to cross the part where you go from the chest voice to the head voice, but can go almost just as high as the girls should? :/

[glitchystudios]

@Wymorin01 same here. i cant even make a sound without straining during the part where we are supposed to use our mixed voice.

[AjDeratina]

i can't even see the red bar (: THAT MEANS THIS VIDEO IS AWSOME.

[LilMillion100]

WHEN I WAS LITTLE I USED TO BE IN MY CHURCH CHOIR BUT OF COURSE I GOT OLDER AND MY VOICE GOT WAY DEEPER, I SAY MY VOICE IS ABOUT WHERE DRAKE'S VOICE IS, BUT I WANNA LEARN TO RAISE IT EVEN HIGHER, AND IT REALLY FEELS LIKE THIS IS WORKIN!
