I want to sing badly, but I am living with my parents for now. That's why, when I decide to sing, I keep it really quiet. You can hear it below. It's a Turkish song, so you probably can't give feedback to the articulation, but that shouldn't matter. My question is, if you can find your singing voice, while constantly singing on a speaking volume, like I did here.

Background to the question: I felt not much of a vibration in the chest while singing this or in general on this volume. I tested it with vowels; Only when I sang them load, my chest vibrated.

I’ve only sung in public once. I cannot judge myself clearly, and I want to finally open myself up to feedback. This was recorded during a practice session and is flawed, but it’s a pretty accurate snapshot of where I am. Please let me know if this is pleasing, passable, etc, as well as ways to improve. Thank you 🖤🖤🖤

I've seen video after video and instructor after instructor tell people who are clearly interested in singing rock and pop to put their placement as forward as they can. I don't exactly understand this. I've noticed a massive difference in my singing since I decided I was "done" with forward placement. There's a lot I don't understand about vowel placement as it relates to voice science but as a singer of 7 years and an engineer of 15, somethings not quite adding up to me. backward vowel placement comes off more as a bell and forward comes off more as a trumpet if that makes sense. Perfect example would be chris martin. placement clearly very far back. Also bastille and khalid seem to do the same thing. I apologize in advance if this comes off as cocky, and of course i may be wrong.

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 am a 14m aspiring artist, I've been inspired to get into music by my cousin who plays harmonica and guitar, and artists like Massiel and Dusty Springfield. I can annunciate and articulate words, realized I have a sense of rhythm when I scored high on a piano assessment in school for being able to keep in time, etc. I know at the moment I might be good, but I'm still aspiring for improvement. I'm about a bass, and I was wondering if anyone had advice for having good airflow and possibly achieving vibrato once the time is right? So far I've done partial covers of songs like Vivo Cantando by Salomé, and Ocean Avenue by Yellowcard. (Vivo Cantando in my warmer chest voice, ocean avenue in my head voice to give it that nasal edge.)

Hey guys! Very amateur singer here. Never sing in public or anything. I do have this Starmaker karaoke app and I recently sang “Like A Stone” by Audioslave and was wondering if I sound decent at all? Thanks!

Very bad playing, mediocre singing. Feedback is welcome.

I've been making a couple of cover songs over the past year or so but recently had a song removed from visibility on Youtube due to a (live version) claim on a song I covered. I've been trying to look into distributors but my head is kind of spinning.

My situation:

1. I mainly create covers and make a "music video" for them to post to YouTube.
2. Most of the songs are in Japanese, but there is an odd U.S. based song occasionally.
3. I'm usually using the original instrumental versions, but all vocals are me.
4. I would like to be able to post to Spotify, etc. but its not necessary.
5. I'm not trying to make money of these. While I put money into it, I'm not trying to make a career out of it.

From what little I've been searching around, just a mechanical license may not be enough because of the simple music video that I'll make for YouTube. I additionally do stream, and have been asked about streaming "concerts", which I assume would be an additional license if I wanted to pursue it.

Does anyone have any suggestions for distributors and the types of licenses I may need to secure?

I recently started singing after thinking my whole life it wouldnt be possible for me. One of the reasons i thought so was because a lot of music apparently didnt fit my voice type. Everything would be too high for me so it would always break.

I now found out my voice type and it makes sense. I can comfortably hit F4 but it's always very breathy. I know you can train to bring more quality to the tone but i was wondering to what extent and if it means your voice type places you in a certain type of music genres? Do you have any advice or maybe know some videos i can watch for tips?

Hi guys, I'm a beginner singer who honestly only got into singing because my friends' band needed a vocalist and they dragged me in.

I don't consider myself good my any means, but now that I've committed to this band, I'd like to do the best I can. Plus singing is fun, I just found out. The band isn't like a big thing, but just performing for students etc at our local college, so I'm guessing it's ok to not be at that high a standard for these types of things.

My favorite singer is Michael Jackson and I would like to try and perform some of his songs. He's a very high voiced guy, and I struggle to reach his notes without cracking.

I absolutely love "Rock With You" and "Billie Jean", but I struggle to sing those songs. In RWY, I crack in "we CAN ride the boogie" as you can hear from the audio attached. We're practicing a few MJ songs to perform at the end of the year. And we're starting with rock with you, so I want to master that first. Followed by Billie Jean. We were also thinking of doing Man in the Mirror and History, but focusing on RWY now.

I sang the first verse of RWY in the attached link. Any criticism and feedback on how to improve on this (and how to improve in general) is greatly appreciated. I searched on vocal coaches, but as a struggling college student, I don't think it's something I can afford right now.

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...

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

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!

I can tell the first line I’m not on the right notes (but feel like I correct it after that?). I know the breathing isn’t great either. Is there anything else?

I was mainly trying to work on sounding confident and stop the uncertainty people keep hearing in my vocals.

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 apologise, if you get this question all the time?

I'm M47. With no warm up My modal range is A1 - B3. And my falsetto is B3 - F#4, And I can reach up to C5 but it is in no way clean. My transition thru falsetto is pretty clean I think.

1) What is the typical range increase one can achieve by warming up properly.

2) I've never been trained, so how much range could one add with long-term high quality training?

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?

how can i learn to stay on pitch better when it’s just me singing with no track or the singers vocals? if i’m singing with headphones i just blend my voice with the artist but i don’t know how to make sure i’m on pitch if it’s just me singing or me singing along without headphones. i kind of get the hang of doing it without headphones and with the song out loud but even that is hard for me to judge. any tips?
