Mindfuck! Guy in the back. Good video btw

@BlvdesArschloch ok, wait a minute?! Thanks but, lets just settle on perhaps inspiration. Glad you like it, I like it too... I love being the guy that points out the white elephants... Its fun.

@michelegambini I am so happy you have found this video as a means to unlock the confusion of singing for you. Falsetto is a vocal mode, characterized by an open glottis, wind in the phonation and placed in the head resonance... "head voice" is the register that vocal modes of your choice phonate out of. Confusion around this is a HUGE problem in this business! BTW, I am a rock singer as an artist, but as a coach, TVS techniques are for all styles of singing.

@infynit ... Bro, give it up. Again, the video is not for research professionals or is it intended to show off my technical know how of the exactly physiology of singing. The point of the video is to clarify the confusion that many people and teachers are still teaching... this notion that "headvoice" and "falsetto" mean the same thing. THAT is the purpose of the video. Please stop arguing for something that was never intended to be. Your missing the point and now your wasting my time... lame.

@infynit Buy my book, "The Four Pillars of Singing" 2.0, where you will read that the "head voice" and "chest voice" do NOT actually exist. These terms are only used as metaphors from time to time to help, usualy beginners, grasp the idea of formant shifts. I'm not married to the terms at all, in fact, more and more, am gravitating away from it, however, I do find it to be useful in some situations and certain students.

[infynit]

@roblunte and i ask you, why exactly doesn't anybody explain the 'real' way things are? why these metaphors, why this probability of confusion... is it because you think most people are of lesser mental ability and will not understand? in my experience i found the exact opposite. the more exact and to the point your information is, the lower the rate of misinterpretation and confusion. and i believe all vocal coaches should be able to exemplify all 'modes' flawlessly and explain them clearly.

[infynit]

@roblunte how exactly is this not relevant? falsetto is a kind of usage of the vocal chords... ok we all got that (and it can be scientifically detailed how) but why extend the myth of 'head - chest' voice? It IS relevant when you and other vocal coaches out there use these terms like they actually have anything to do with the act of emitting a sound from the vocal apparatus and, in this way, you created and entertained the ideea that these two 'voices' are different somehow.

[roblunte]

@infynit Ok... again, my video neither argues against or for your point.. it is not about resonant shifting in the reality of cavities in the body... it is about the semantics or "talk track' of vocal technique and vocal modes. So please, if you are going to jump onto my channel and make arguments, please have the class to argue for or against the points that are actually being made and keep it in context, don't just jump on here and make a bunch of noise that is irrelevant.
