Really kool song about a bass singer who wishes he was a tenor because he wants to sing love songs instead of songs of drinking and the sea...

  • No, not a basso profundo, but a basso p in training. If he has a Big D at his age, by the time he passes thirty, he'll likely have a B-flat, and maybe an A when in his 40s. There are many references to C2 and D2 being considered profundo, but I'm used to most Bass 2s getting one or both of them. This young guy could be one of those with 3 octaves, hearing his sound in the upper register at this point. This from 30-yrs of experience singing profundo. When possible.

  • not yet a basso xD

see all

  • Not quite down there just yet but will come with age. please don't let go of the top voice. you seem to have something up there worth exploring!

  • Lyrischer Bariton! Tief singen können hat nichts mit Bass zu tun...

  • Great video I'm planning on singing this for my schools coffee house.

  • @tenormadsen It's not really nice to compare people... Each person is unique!!! He did he's best no matter what this Glenn guy did!!!!!

  • Um, I can't find the lyrics not to mention the chords for this song. Does anyone know where to look?

  • don't care if he's a basso or not, he obviously can sing and is so cute :X

  • Basso Profundo is about range though, much the question is does he sound like a basso profundo at C2 and D2, and not just a high bass. I don't think this guy sounds like that yet, a high bass yes, and maybe his voice will get fuller, you don't know though.

    Also to anyone who thinks that because they can hit a C2 they are a basso profundo, or even a bass, check out Paul McCartny, he is a tenor, w/ A1. Also don't expand you range, expand what you can sing will, range will come.

  • I'm 14 and i can hit the C below the staff. Think i have a chance at basso profundo? :D

  • fullbag, it's quite possible you will turn profundo. At 16, I still didn't have the D below the staff, but by end of college, lowest had continued dropping until I had an 'okay' B. The B-flat was elusive for a few years, but at around age 30 there was a maturation of the sound, and I started noticing a half step drop in the lowest note every 4 or 5 years. If you don't take voice lessons, you might try sundry scales of one to two octaves. Relax down, rather than push-easy, not driving, esp @ 16
