  • Aha! - so we are talking about the man singing a higher note, but in the octave lower!

    As a musician I know what you mean here (although it is technically still nonsense!), but the fact that this is not made clear anywhere in the video could be very confusing, not to mention frustrating for many people.

  • @geespar1 Fair point. It is explained clearly on the DVD itself. What you are seeing here is a montage of excerpts - a trailer of the full 4-disk set

  • So, "men sing higher than women"? This is totally inaccurate. Before the male voice breaks in early teens there's little difference between a boy's and a girl's range. When the male voice does break it actually becomes LOWER, meaning that a man's voice, with it's larger 'chords' can no longer reach the higher notes, but can sing lower. This is why the Bass voice is male, and the Soprano voice is is female. If men could sing higher than women it would be the other way around!

  • @geespar1 Let me explain the statement "men sing higher than women". This is made in relation to men's natural vocal range vs womens which albeit yes an octave lower, is actually a few tones above what is comfortable for a woman to sing.

    So in worship, songs that are, for instance, in Bb are normally more comfortable for women to sing than songs in D. Take a song like Delirious' Majesty. The top notes are fine for Martin Smith et al to sing but most women will struggle to comfortably reach them

  • wow she s pregnant so cool ::!!!!

  • i totally understand the statement about men singing higher than women (in an octave lower of course)...... i found this very helpful. overall, great video!

  • @musicademy Thanks, The Wades as a group is much easier to find.

    I have seen some of your guitar video samples on Youtube, and I like them, but I still have plenty of other stuff I'd like to plow through first. I'm bookmarking your channel, though, for later. I like how refined the lessons are.

  • @gessie Yes. He's a great singer. Used to sing with his brothers in the band The Wades. Got quite a long way on XFactor or one of those other TV talent shows a couple of years back.

    Have you seen our guitar stuff?

  • @musicademy Really? That's one impressive vocalist. I'm a guitarist myself, but if I were a vocalist I'd probably see him as I see some of the guitar-greats right now (Clapton, Gilmour, Knopfler etc).

    I actually first heard him sing in Pack Up by Eliza Doolittle, and in that song his talent is obvious, but it's proven difficult to find more of his work.

  • @gessie It showed up because Lloyd Wade is on the DVD is promoting. He does some teaching on it
