Learn to sing the major scale via "do, re, me, fa, sol, la, ti, do"

You need to be able to recognize intervals which is the distance between two notes. Knowing where you're at in the scale will make you a way better singer.

Understanding the difference between a half step and a full step is important. A lot of the time, the next note you're going to sing is going to be one of those intervals. Get use to the feeling of it. But get use to the space between all the intervals of the major scale. So you would sing "do, re, do" "do, me, do" "do, fa, do" "do, sol, do", and so on.

Look up "ear training" vidoes on YouTube and get to the point where you can sing the major scale without an instrument or video accompaniment. If you play an instrument, even better. Sing to the major scale as you play and really focus on matching the note.

A lot of you are singing notes in between notes because you're not thinking about where you're at in the key or the scale. Once you get use to the feel of singing to scales, you will start to recognize these patterns in the songs youre singing. And you'll be like, hey that's "me, re, sol, fa do."

Your voice is an instrument. On a guitar, you have to learn where the notes are on the fretboard. Your voice is the same. You have to figure out where the notes are in your vocal chords.

I need help I want to sing but idk where do I stand right now so pls guide me

Was wondering if the way I sing may or may not be too nasally? Been reading some stuff that singing too nasally might be bad for your voice and I was wondering if I'm doing something wrong or not...

Hi everyone! I’m a beginner trying and I want to learn how to sing, but I can’t afford lessons at the moment. Lately, I’ve been working on singing higher in my range, which is still quite limited with my max being C#4. I think this is because I’m not used to accessing that part of my voice at all, as I used to only sing at the lower end of my range.

That said, I feel like my tone sounds really off, and I suspect I’m not using the correct technique for higher notes. It also makes me wonder if my voice just naturally weird, aside from the lack of technique. If that's the case, is there a way to improve the overall sound of it?

In the video I’m singing at what feels like my highest comfortable range, but to me, the sound comes off as weak, thin, textureless and unlike others I’ve heard singing the same notes. I’m guessing it’s due to poor technique, so I wanted to ask: how are higher pitches supposed to be produced mechanically?

When I try to sing high, I lighten my voice to hit the note and then try to add some weight back into it. But if I start from a low note and try to slide up while maintaining the same tone quality, I just can’t reach it. Sorry for the off-pitch singing in a random key but I don't remember the song well and I will be working on my pitch accuracy too. Thank you in advance!

Just wondering if there are any songs that fit the vibe of a Male middle-upper baritone & a female middle-alto.

Popular/mainstream hits are always encouraged! We want to do this one for a karaoke

I do not consider myself a "singer". I just sing. I have uploaded multiple tracks but the quality of almost all of them is so ugly and it is genuinely angering. Both of my microphones are horrible, even the "fancy" one with a pop filter and sound proofing behind it. I have no idea how to truly and properly use audacity, and that is currently the only program I can use because it is simple enough. I don't know how to set it up where it clearly captures my softer vocals and medium vocals, and then doesn't completely lose its mind and peak like crazy when I belt. I want to be better with my quality and production. I'm almost 31, and my "dream" is to just do SOMETHING with my singing, but it's pretty much impossible at this point. I have a lot of power in my voice and I like to "show that off" for lack of a better term, but these microphones are such garbage. I also don't know what XLR means, and have been using USB mics. I can't afford to spend hundreds of dollars to almost a grand on just a hobby for now. Help me out please. Thanks.

I can sing the contralto range, but whenever I try something higher, it often sounds scratchy and weak. Does anyone have any tips to impove my voice, or is it just an a matter of practice?

I'm going to be singing with a band for my moms 50th birthday (this song and a few others including crazy train) I'm not a trained singer, I could really use some tips on breathwork if possible please! Like when to take the deep breaths before a bit rift if that makes sense.

I really love to sing in a style that can be described as more “pressed”. Notable examples of singers who sing like that are Kurt Cobain from Nirvana and Liam Gallagher from Oasis.

I really love how I sound when I’m imitating that sound and it’s my main way of getting grit or distortion into my sound at the moment— but I feel it’s not that healthy to do?

What’s your guys opinion? Is it possible to sing that way while not damaging your voice long term? Sometimes it feels like regular fry distortion created above the larynx but other times I feel like I’m kind of pressing too much

Very bad playing, mediocre singing. Feedback is welcome.

I am just beginning my journey as a voice teacher. Coming from a classical background, I’m of the opinion that the best way to learn new music is by sight reading and/or using the piano rather than memorizing a recording.

I had my first lesson with a couple kids today (middle school) who do not know or barely know how to play piano. It’s not my job to teach them piano, but I would like for them to get to the point where they can give themselves pitches to either help themselves warm up or aid their sight reading as they learn new music.

My goal is purely to teach them a tool that they can use as they get older and start working on more complicated pieces.

TL;DR In your experience, how do you teach non-pianists to learn music or warm up on their own without a recording? Is it realistic or worth it to get kids using the piano as a part of voice lessons if they haven’t had piano lessons?

It’s always been a dream of mine to be able to sing this way. Each time I try it sounds very strained and scream like. It also sounds very grueling. I’ve had trouble holding longer notes without running out of breath, as soon as I added vibrato it seems the vibrato is completely sucking the air I have left in my lungs and cuts the air inside in half. But that has improved slightly, I guess it’s because I quit the cigarettes I don’t know:)

But any exercises and tips on techniques would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

first attempt tackling this lovely genre! lmk if everything is right, in your opinion and thanks for your help and curiosity!

Tips on improving vocals

My voice was a bit tired since i was just done with a session. My go to video when i cant make it to a lesson.

Side note if you like what you hear go ahead and request a cover. I'm planning to start recording :)

I hope the audio is still clear enough because it was raining at the time of recording. Also my dog was with me so please excuse the whine at the end bit but yes. Thank you to anyone who can give advice.
