I Attempt From Love's Sickness to Fly Bartione Solo

[TypeToToohey]

Not great. 

[RunescapeWideos]

Don't sing the melismae on this song so forcefully - just let the notes flow freely. Also, work on your breathing - I can hear you trying to breathe outside the directed marks... Make sure you are filling up in your diaphragm and depleting all of the air before each phrase.

don't strain you throat by putting a "H" sound in front of your vowels. like when you sing the trill for the word "fly" you put an H in front of the each word. force your sound and breath to come from as low in your stomach as possible. not from you throat or chest. but sounds good man :)

I'm working on singing this right now for contest! I think you did a pretty good job. I'm no expert so I can't exactly comment on what to improve but the I hink nottus6017 has givin some lovely advice! :)

[ozzymandi]

Good attempt at a tough song to sing .

I enjoyed your singing .

Thank you.

Um...... Ew.....

Excuse me but that is extremely rude! If you don't like it, than why not give a reason why and a few tips if you think you could do better!

nasal

[AulicExclusiva]

You are obviously not a trained singer, and you aspirate, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, every run. What precisely is the meaning of this attempt? You are not a baritone (note spelling) you are just a pleasant-looking boy singing this as if you were in the shower.

[phoisgreat]

You hit all the notes very nicely but it sounded like you were actually hitting some of the notes like hitting a nail. Instead of hitting them, let the sound make a kind of a moving, smooth feeling and it will be fantastic :)

[forsakenslove]

I like your tone. Very pretty voice. This song sounds great baritone. Make sure that you keep "Fl~~~~~~y" blended even when you are changing notes. I hear some "h" sounds in between those slurs. Keep it connected! Love your voice!

[AcumenCj]

Hey cutie!

[greenkswiss33]

ehhhhhhh..... :/

[nottus6017]

your tone needs more air. push from low to reach high instead of pushing it from the throat. On words like "since" work to focus on the vowels and CONNECT the entire thing. Especially the "I attempt from love's sickness." Your phrasing could be a lot more fluid. think about how you'd say it and phrase your music like a sentence. You've got potential, you just need to work at a few basic changes in technique that will bring a million new options and create a much more mature sound.

i'm an alto and i sang along with you. i think it sounded really good. you should make a video with an alto and see how you like it.

Bass 1 against me for VA honors choir this fall? hopefully i'll see you there!

some tips:

-try to show the text while keeping the vocal line smooth, esp on the "fly" run.

-keep that ah vowel a little brighter than you have it now, it should be tall without sounding forced.

-avoid closing to the consonant too early, there are a few places in this video where it sounds choppy (every "sick" you're turning into an eighth note, for example).

-overall, dont sacrifice good singing for baroque styling

[AkiraKinyota]

Aaah~ You won't see me there because I cannot try out! I'm only a rising highschool junior. I did this because I was bored and I was trying to get the song out of my head after hearing it a bajillion times this past year.

Great comments though! I'll really take these to heart and try them out to try and improve myself so I really thank you for that.

[paruparungbukid]

you're doing your runs wrong... but at least you're not out of tune.

[EmoxIchigos]
