The Water is Wide - Guitar & Vocal

O.k. This is my very first solo, ever . . .

The Water is Wide, I can't cross o're
and neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that will carry two
and both will row, my love and I . . .

Oh, love is handsome, and love is kind
the sweetest flower, when first it is new
but love grows old and waxes cold
and fades away like morning dew . . . .

Beautiful job, this is a all time favorite of mine. You have a great Eva Cassidy sound when you sing, you space vocal rhythm like her, very beautiful. Might I give a little coaching, and when you hold a note stay on the vowel, otherwise don't change that sweetness that you have. You are very talented, and even more considering your age.

when you reach the high notes, drop your jaw, support your voice by tightening your stomach muscles and don't let your chin rise, as this will straign your voice and won't let the sound come out better. keep your head and chin at eye level all the way through the piece to improve on the high notes. I sing this song and i know it is a little high, but doing these techniques my singing teacher taught me, will help you project and present the notes comfortably and properly. well done!
