  • Heeey =D

    Amazing Videos really thanks for all ur help ...

    I do have a Head Voice but itz not as strong as it used to be

    Usually to Reach my HV i need to do a series of Vocal Runs then im able to reach notes using HV which is usually F#5 G5 Bb5 and B5 ....

    But i cant seem to control them very well and they break unintentionally .. Also i have once Sang all the down to a C5 using head but cant do it all the time cz it jst breaks. How can i develop a more reliable, connected HV?

  • @XxSomeonePersonXX To answer your question I need to know how much air you are using to sing in head voice? Is it the same as when you are singing lower in your range?

  • @AussieVocalCoach ,, Thaanks for the reply =] i really appreciate it

    Mmmmmm as i go higher i use less air ... but when i hit the C5 . D5 in head they sounded really flute-like (thats why i know itz HV) so i guess alot of air in the lower head voice and lesss in the higher.

  • @XxSomeonePersonXX Ok, when I am teaching how to sing in head voice I demonstrate that you need to use the same amount of air for every note you sing. That doesn't mean the same amount is released though. As you sing higher the vocal cords get closer together which doesn't allow as much air to flow through. You should feel some pressure behind the cords because of this. It is this pressure that maintains a connected head voice.

  • hey just a quick question, I am a guy and i sometimes sing in my falsetto in my spare time, i can do it quite good and high without straining, but could this be harming my normal singing voice???

  • @XxSoldxOutxX The only thing you need to be careful of is taking your falsetto down as a replacement for head voice. You can develop a massive break in your voice. Keep falsetto above head voice and it won't harm your normal voice.

  • By far the best videos for learning how to sing.

  • i cant sing really high anymore .... im a girl fyi .... before i joined choir in school, my voice is higher but now, my voice is getting deeper, i am from alto in choir and im having a choir revoicing tmrw and im afraid i cant hit the high notes...

  • heeyy, love your video it helped me a lil bit ...

    but, i still need more help reaching out to the c but my voice like breaks then it sounds bad... is there anything else i could do to try to reach the higher notes & i need help with belting too as well.

  • @PK7gurl i have the same problem too.

  • Hello! I have a quick question for you, when I sing in my head voice it suddenly becomes very airy and when I try to make my voice more powerful my voice cracks. I was wondering what you would suggest for how to put more power behind my voice without breaking.

    Cheers!

  • Thank you for this video. it helped me, but I still don't feel when should I stop singing with the chest voice and when to start with the head voice

  • hi thank you for this vid! do you have any tip on how to do a grunt? thanks

  • I know I just commented on a different video of yours, but I just want to comment that you have a beautiful vocal tone. And you can sing a tenor c#? Amazing. I would like to hit a G above middle C consistently without strain. I have been singing for most of my life, and I never really knew about head voice until fairly recently. I have always belted chest; it was the only method I had any knowledge of. I can see there are better sounding and healthier methods, and I am trying to correct my habit

  • @AussieVocalCoach : occasionaly i am able to transition from chest to head on vowels like E .... so i gues that uses the same amount of air .... and sometimes im able to "Scat" notes in HV on the "A" vowel for like 7 times back to back .... all in the hopes of getting a strong reliable HV ... yet i may be able to do this then 5 mins later i lose this ability ... and have to "Force" the notes .. Sometimes forcing them works and the notes do come out and sometimes it doesnt
