I saw a video similar to this about 2 years ago (except it wasn't anything like this). This dude was an actual professional singer who really knew what he was doing and clearly had been doing for many many years. He took a 30 day learn-how-to-sing course or whatever and in the end completely slammed the whole thing because he didn't improve his already amazing singing skills. Can't make this shit up, he even came back later to comment how he doesn't understand why the video got like 6k dislikes and 2 likes.
Just like your "Don't Stay In School" video, you don't want to waste your time learning stuff that is not relevant. Awesome that you were diligent for 30 days. Make sure you can find a vocal coach that can actually sing well and study their method so your efforts are reward. :-)
Most vocal coaches are a lot like Economists, They claim to know how money works and yet none of them are rich. Vocal coaches claim to know how the voice works, but few can sing (or sing well). For example: Vocal coaches show how to use your abdomen / diaphragm for breath support and strength. And then when you hear them sing, they sound very weak themselves. Just because they can go through the motions and make their belly protrude doesn't mean they are using any strength in the belly at all. It's an exercise in futility. - Food for thought :-) Love your vides :-)
+Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy what you said is pretty much what sports commentators do. same as music critics. like for example I've never made a song or played an instrument but still I judge the skills of one who does. when I have zero. so yea your right. I don't do the judging tho lol
+Awesome Gamer Boyinaband made a song called "Don't stay in school" where he questions the way schools teach students. That's what Ken Tamplin was referring to.
It sounds like a problem you’re having (or had since I guess his video is pretty old lol) is that you’re singing at the back of your throat rather than more foreword, which can actually lead to vocal damage if done continuously. Also, now that I’ve finished watching the video (lol) it seems you’re also tensing up your throat a lot trying to reach higher notes, but a technique that definitely takes some practice to do is relaxing your throat when you sing higher notes. Try doing exercises going up the scales with almost with the feeling of a yawn. You probably won’t even see this comment so this is probably pointless to type out but woo hope I could help someone
Thank you for saying this, I realized I had this problem as well and it was really hurting my throat and vocal tone. This should be emphasized a lot more in vocal training tips videos
The yawn thing is very good advice - it always helps me a ton to open up my „resonance rooms“ (don’t know the english term sorry). Try to sing while yawning! It’s also a very convenient exercise when vocal lessons are in the morning and I’m constantly yawning anyways...
As a 15 year old with a teensy tiny voice, I wanted to be able to sing so badly. My singing teacher told me "if you can speak you have a sense of pitch. If you can walk, you have a sense of rhythm. Everyone can learn to sing." He was right. I now make my living with my voice (I'm a teacher) and have repeatedly lead singing for communities of 100+ children and their parents.

@@itxGifteD Celldweller - Switchback Listen to Celldweller - Frozen. It's the best vocal performance from Klayton of Celldweller. Stay With Me (Unlikely) is also an awesome example of a vocal performance.
I'm Dave from Boyinaband, and this is my RUclips channel. I work here with my old dan and my friend, Guy Number 2. Every video on here has a cat and a thought experiment. One thing I've learned after 4 years - you never know WHAT they're gonna teach in schools.
@@bluz1864 depends on the amount of time you're willing to practice proper vocal technique. Like all skills, if you spend too little time and effort. Then you can expect to be mediocre.
Please get enough rest between vocal training sessions. If you’re having a sensation where your vocal chords sound gravelly or worn out you’re pushing yourself too hard and actually causing small grazes and damage to the larynx. It can eventually cause infection or scar tissue which will permanently change the way your voice sounds. Im not just some random person I’m a qualified vocal coach. I really hope Dave sees this. Green tea with honey is great for the days where you’ve over done it a little bit.
This is definitely the coolest video made about singing improvement on youtube. I would LOVE to see another month, heck, maybe even a year of this. You should also make a schedule for us to see what you did on each day, eg: Day 3: Mumming, training pitch Day 7: Downloaded [name of app] etcetc. You earned a subscriber!
i cringe so hard everytime i think about that my teacher and people near me heard me in primary2 because the sir said do you want to be a singer and i was like what?i didnt suspect he heard me
12:19 "It didn't recognize that as a note"... I don't think anyone would recognize that as a note, but I'm so happy you kept that in. I haven't laughed like that in a while. Subbed.
@Boyinaband I highly recommend Rock Band or Karaoke Revolution to practice hitting the notes. I grew up on those games, and now I only worry about my tone, not the notes.
You definitely did sound better by the end, and you were incredibly brave to do this on the big, terrifyingly public internet! I had to sing publicly and solo for the first time at the grand old age of 34, when I took a Performing Arts course, and singing turned out to be a mandatory part of the course (that they told me wasn't mandatory if I took the acting pathway, but that turned out to be a lie, along with dancing.) I was beyond terrified. Up until this point, I'd only ever sung along to the radio when I was all on my own, and just below the volume of the radio so no-one outside would guess I was singing along. And now, after some singing lessons on a Performing Arts course, I was having to do a BLOODY SOLO in front of an ACTUAL, PAYING AUDIENCE. Fortunately I survived and so did they. I salute your courage, Dave!
Roomie: * standing outside of Dave's window, ears plugged, laptop in arm and microphone scotch-taped to the side of his head * I CAME AS SOON AS I HEARD
I congratulate you on this! I'm in choir and I have been telling people that anyone can learn how to sing better, and this just proves that point. So thank you for making this video😊
Vanessa Phipps i wanted to see how well i did compared to him on his first time doing the singsharp app. i got 100 first try, it’s really interesting how 4 years of choir makes a difference between a “bad” singer and i.
12:08 THAT PLACEMENT IS PERFECT FOR YOU!! Also noticed that singing Bieber was a high point cause you let more sound come out of your nose instead of the throat
Now im really interested in how you edited your voice so good. Like, wtf? It sounds really good in your songs, i never would have thought that you cant actually sing.
+ThaTyger 100% true. If they have an album that's been produced and not put out independently, it's been auto tuned. Even most independent albums get auto tuned.
I loved this video. I really think you should do another, as you are learning about singing from someone who is learning to sing himself. Usually you learn from someone who can already sing, which is good due to them having a lot of experience. The thing is, as you are really good at dissecting what you are doing, you touch on a lot of things, even small things, that a lot of people can resonate with and these are things that more experienced singers have forgotten or more gifted singers haven't struggled with as much. So thank you for this video. (:
You get a subscription from me just for having the guts to do this in a public forum. I really wanted to point out that learning from videos doesn't work for everyone. Although you said many times you were going into falsetto you really weren't. You were belting. A real live music teacher would be able to see that and show you how to get into falsetto vs pushing into the upper register. Belting can cause damage to your vocal chords over time. That's why your throat would hurt when you were doing it too long and why you actually lost some range instead of gaining it. Falsetto is softer and more breathy. It uses looser vocal chords and the force of your breath to create high notes. Most rock singers don't actually use falsetto because it sounds less aggressive. It is popular in pop and can be easy to recognize once you know what you are looking for. It is a completely different sound and when people use it they are not straining to reach the note. I know this is a really old video and you probably won't even see this comment but if you really want to improve your singing, find a singing teacher with some classical experience so they can show you the differences and how to stop straining so you can save your vocal chords from injury. I am not a teacher, I'm a singer who was fortunate to have a really great chorus teacher in high school who taught us how to use the vocal chords in a safe way and I still catch myself straining sometimes.
Honestly clicked this cause I thought Roomie would tutor him Edit: I felt like I should say I love Dave and was entertained by this video.....I do love Roomie tho 😍
I've been studying music and singing for quite a few years and one of my teachers got a degree on CVT, Complete Vocal Technique. She taught me so much about the human voice and everything it can do, and as the name suggests the technique covers everything from talking and screaming to singing. If you're interested, look it up! You might even find a certified CVT teacher in your area who could help you with your technique. CVT gives you a very thorough experience and there's only one rule: if it hurts, you're doing something wrong. It's also very analytical and gives you the means to further research your own voice. I hope it'll help you like it helped me!
I'm going to give you a little bit of personal advice from a fellow vocalist. When I first started out, I sounded just like you. No tonality, no vocal color, I was basically just speaking in different keys. I finally started breaking the barrier and started singing songs out of my range. Boy I tell ya. I sounded like a dying whale. Absolutely a dying whale. Nothing was in key, I sounded like a train wreck. I was determined though. I kept on singing every morning, every afternoon, every evening. The cool thing about it is, you don't even know that your voice is improving. In your mind, nothing is different just because you want that will go go higher. To start off, you need to have a passion about the song you're singing and actually feel the song. If you're singing just for fun, or to prove a point, you'll never get anywhere. Singing is an art that you have to develop the talent and skill. You go to put your heart into it. Anyone can go to the gym and lift 20lb dumbbells all week and not gain anything but self satisfaction. It takes the person to do those routines and slowly work up to where they want to be. Same for singing. Keep at it if you have the passion and let 'er rip dude. Don't feel like someone is judging you. Put on your headphones, turn that volume up and put your heart behind it. Don't worry how you sound, sing from your soul. I guarantee you'll see an improvement. Don't worry if you blow your chords. Drink tea and take some cough drops to sooth your voice.
+Boyinaband remember to be realistic - you must do a bit of work whatever plan you decide on for learning to sing I have spent months studying how to play singing and found an awesome website at Bens Singer Blog (check it out on google)
The fact that you tried to immediately sing Panic is a mood and like way too advanced. I even have trouble with some of those and I’ve had vocal training basically since the day I was able to make noises intentionally.
Sooooooo, I actually really like Dave's voice, and he definitely has improved his tone over the 30 days! So sad there's no part two. But thank you for this one😊
Good work. I would suggest learning to sing opera. It's what changed my abilities in a major way. You learn much more about how your voice works by singing operatic songs. You'll learn better control over your articles of articulation. You should learn to sing using your entire body from the tips of your toes to the top of your head and everything in between. Don't set a goal of singing the song you wrote. The Marriage of Figaro will give you everything you need to be able to sing songs you wrote yourself. I'm not sure if I'm making sense, but I hope you understand what I mean at least a little. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have about the topic. Also, basic voice lessons using scales will go a long way. You're using a lot of apps and that's fine. However, try to find one that does an ascending and descending scale. Actually, I'm not sure if you have seen this, but here's a link describing what I'm trying to say www.vocalist.org.uk/vocal_scales.html Good luck!!!
Sweetie, singing is VERY psychological. YOU'RE ONLY "OUT OF YOUR RANGE" WHEN U THINK & BELIEVE U ARE OUT OF YOUR RANGE! Singing is a live, spontaneous, instant, demonstration of the Law of Attraction. The moment I aligned my intentions w my emotions and KNEW I could do it: I could hit any note I wanted, from the lowest bass to the highest Mariah whistles. ALLWAYS KNOW U CAN DO IT, NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES, or u simply won't! I'm personally a living example of all this
It was so weird watching him sing "I write sins not tragedies" because I never realized that that was a hard song to sing. I'm a girl and that song is literally how I talk... Not criticizing him in any way, I just didn't realize the vocal range difference.
the first singing bit i was like, "This is ok, not on professional singing level at all but its ok," and then... the high part... "AAAAAAH MY EARS MY POOR POOR EARSSSSS"
I had no singing ability my freshman and sophomore year, but when I started maturing and my voice got slightly deeper I got alot better. I mean, being in choir helped alot, but I think it's skill. skill trumps talent
Honestly anything can be learned. All talent is being able to learn something particularly faster, and still be good at it. Anyone can play the guitar for 10 years and be exceptionally skilled at it, however there are others who play it for 4 years and are already in the news. So if someone ever wants to be good at something, my only advice is that as long as you have the passion you will be good at it. ALSO, don't think that my words are attempting to make talented people out as bad people. If anything, while you are on a journey to achieve skill, look up to those people, and ask for advice. Some of them will say they can't help you because they are "just good" at it. And yeah sometimes that's true, so look for another. Worst comes to worse, just hang out with them more. Their talent will give you confidence. I'm commenting on this post cuz I kinda just did so don't think this huge ass essay was meant for you xx :)
(Not trying to brag when I say this ):) I can easily say that talent exists and helps a *lot* with learning how to sing, however talent never makes you a better musician than someone else. It makes learning the SKILL of being a musician easier, yes, but doesn't make you immediatly better than someone else. I have found that I'm presonally very talented with vocal music. I've always been able to match pitches, and utilizing my soft-pallet and resonance within my skull has always come naturally to me. However, I know plenty of people who are just as good as me, and some that are even better than me - in both my Chamber and Jazz/Show Choir's - at being a musician. I'm great at reading rhythms, but finding intervals and naming notes is something that I struggle with on a day-to-day basis. Plenty of people look up to me in these choirs, and hell. I'm 90% positive my teachers don't even know I have a hard time finding pitches by reading a paper, but I do. The second I hear the key, I know exactly where my pitch is, sure. I can probably only hear a chord once and singe the entirety of a piece in the same key, even guessing what key-changes are made later on comes (for the most part) to me very easily. Does this make me a good musician? Well, yes, but someone with experience and the right skill-set can do those things just as easily as I can. My point is, talent is a blessing, and having it allows you to learn things much more quickly, but the education of the subject is what really makes you a "professional". Mozart didn't just see a piano and go "Oh, so all I have to do is wiggle my fingers" and then make a fucking masterpiece on the spot. That's just not how it works XD
futa I've heard a guy in a band sing like that and he is famous lol so yes 😂 he is probably better at singing like that instead of like Beyonce type singing basically like rock singing where they can't really sing vs having a good voice like five finger death punch or disturbed lol who are famous yet can't sing like "down with the sickness "
Ari The Vampire Queen a lot of “rock”(or pop punk) singers can sing very well for example when Brendon Urie sang pop punk and stuff he could sing great(he still can) sorry if this sounds rude or something it’s not meant to haha
As someone training to be a singer this is nice, because when I first ever saw this video I didn’t think much of it, and now a year or so on I can identify what he’s doing right/wrong, so it shows I’ve improved my knowledge too!
Here's a little tip! When singing high notes at the top of your range, I've noticed you furrow your eyebrows, when really, it's MUCH, much easier to raise your eyebrows and show expression when singing in order to get the sound you'd like to produce.

I'm Dave from Boyinaband, and this is my RUclips channel. I work here with my old dan and my friend, Guy Number 2. Every video on here has a cat and a thought experiment. One thing I've learned after 4 years - you never know WHAT they're gonna teach in schools.

Please get enough rest between vocal training sessions. If you’re having a sensation where your vocal chords sound gravelly or worn out you’re pushing yourself too hard and actually causing small grazes and damage to the larynx. It can eventually cause infection or scar tissue which will permanently change the way your voice sounds.
Im not just some random person I’m a qualified vocal coach. I really hope Dave sees this. Green tea with honey is great for the days where you’ve over done it a little bit.
I wanna know if metal screaming can damage your vocal chords??
@@ZephyrusMorp it definitely can. Some of the most experienced metal singers get throat blisters

@Boyinaband I highly recommend Rock Band or Karaoke Revolution to practice hitting the notes. I grew up on those games, and now I only worry about my tone, not the notes.
I'd love to see you playing Rock Band vocals as part of your next video.
Thats actually an awesome idea, and you never know it might revive the games aswell :P
11:40 is such a mood
You definitely did sound better by the end, and you were incredibly brave to do this on the big, terrifyingly public internet!
I had to sing publicly and solo for the first time at the grand old age of 34, when I took a Performing Arts course, and singing turned out to be a mandatory part of the course (that they told me wasn't mandatory if I took the acting pathway, but that turned out to be a lie, along with dancing.) I was beyond terrified. Up until this point, I'd only ever sung along to the radio when I was all on my own, and just below the volume of the radio so no-one outside would guess I was singing along. And now, after some singing lessons on a Performing Arts course, I was having to do a BLOODY SOLO in front of an ACTUAL, PAYING AUDIENCE. Fortunately I survived and so did they. I salute your courage, Dave!

Now im really interested in how you edited your voice so good. Like, wtf? It sounds really good in your songs, i never would have thought that you cant actually sing.
Its called autotune son, every pop singer uses it
+Dizzy -L every singer uses it
+Grey Jedi most singers in the industry use it
not true...
+ThaTyger 100% true. If they have an album that's been produced and not put out independently, it's been auto tuned. Even most independent albums get auto tuned.
I loved this video. I really think you should do another, as you are learning about singing from someone who is learning to sing himself. Usually you learn from someone who can already sing, which is good due to them having a lot of experience. The thing is, as you are really good at dissecting what you are doing, you touch on a lot of things, even small things, that a lot of people can resonate with and these are things that more experienced singers have forgotten or more gifted singers haven't struggled with as much. So thank you for this video. (:
Actually, I speant ALL DAY, EVERY DAY practicing my singing and I've since improved pretty well.

Genius comment 🤣
Mason S

You get a subscription from me just for having the guts to do this in a public forum.
I really wanted to point out that learning from videos doesn't work for everyone. Although you said many times you were going into falsetto you really weren't. You were belting. A real live music teacher would be able to see that and show you how to get into falsetto vs pushing into the upper register. Belting can cause damage to your vocal chords over time. That's why your throat would hurt when you were doing it too long and why you actually lost some range instead of gaining it.
Falsetto is softer and more breathy. It uses looser vocal chords and the force of your breath to create high notes. Most rock singers don't actually use falsetto because it sounds less aggressive. It is popular in pop and can be easy to recognize once you know what you are looking for. It is a completely different sound and when people use it they are not straining to reach the note.
I know this is a really old video and you probably won't even see this comment but if you really want to improve your singing, find a singing teacher with some classical experience so they can show you the differences and how to stop straining so you can save your vocal chords from injury.
I am not a teacher, I'm a singer who was fortunate to have a really great chorus teacher in high school who taught us how to use the vocal chords in a safe way and I still catch myself straining sometimes.

I've been studying music and singing for quite a few years and one of my teachers got a degree on CVT, Complete Vocal Technique. She taught me so much about the human voice and everything it can do, and as the name suggests the technique covers everything from talking and screaming to singing. If you're interested, look it up! You might even find a certified CVT teacher in your area who could help you with your technique. CVT gives you a very thorough experience and there's only one rule: if it hurts, you're doing something wrong. It's also very analytical and gives you the means to further research your own voice.
I hope it'll help you like it helped me!

I'm going to give you a little bit of personal advice from a fellow vocalist. When I first started out, I sounded just like you. No tonality, no vocal color, I was basically just speaking in different keys. I finally started breaking the barrier and started singing songs out of my range. Boy I tell ya. I sounded like a dying whale. Absolutely a dying whale. Nothing was in key, I sounded like a train wreck. I was determined though.
I kept on singing every morning, every afternoon, every evening. The cool thing about it is, you don't even know that your voice is improving. In your mind, nothing is different just because you want that will go go higher. To start off, you need to have a passion about the song you're singing and actually feel the song. If you're singing just for fun, or to prove a point, you'll never get anywhere. Singing is an art that you have to develop the talent and skill. You go to put your heart into it. Anyone can go to the gym and lift 20lb dumbbells all week and not gain anything but self satisfaction. It takes the person to do those routines and slowly work up to where they want to be.
Same for singing. Keep at it if you have the passion and let 'er rip dude. Don't feel like someone is judging you. Put on your headphones, turn that volume up and put your heart behind it. Don't worry how you sound, sing from your soul. I guarantee you'll see an improvement. Don't worry if you blow your chords. Drink tea and take some cough drops to sooth your voice.

I REALLY ENJOY THIS VIDEO , YOU SHOULD POST ANOTHER ONE BRO
I REALLY ENJOYED THIS VIDEO TOO , HE POSTS VIDEOS OFTEN BRO
'He posts videos often bro'. Uhm. Once a month ain't that often xD
Good work. I would suggest learning to sing opera. It's what changed my abilities in a major way. You learn much more about how your voice works by singing operatic songs. You'll learn better control over your articles of articulation. You should learn to sing using your entire body from the tips of your toes to the top of your head and everything in between. Don't set a goal of singing the song you wrote. The Marriage of Figaro will give you everything you need to be able to sing songs you wrote yourself. I'm not sure if I'm making sense, but I hope you understand what I mean at least a little. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have about the topic. Also, basic voice lessons using scales will go a long way. You're using a lot of apps and that's fine. However, try to find one that does an ascending and descending scale. Actually, I'm not sure if you have seen this, but here's a link describing what I'm trying to say
www.vocalist.org.uk/vocal_scales.html
Good luck!!!
WOPWOOOWOWOWOWOW THE LINK IS AWESOME
I'd love seeing a follow-up to this video!
Also, 30-day progress videos should be more common on youtube. They're so interesting and motivating.
Sweetie, singing is VERY psychological. YOU'RE ONLY "OUT OF YOUR RANGE" WHEN U THINK & BELIEVE U ARE OUT OF YOUR RANGE! Singing is a live, spontaneous, instant, demonstration of the Law of Attraction. The moment I aligned my intentions w my emotions and KNEW I could do it: I could hit any note I wanted, from the lowest bass to the highest Mariah whistles. ALLWAYS KNOW U CAN DO IT, NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES, or u simply won't! I'm personally a living example of all this
It was so weird watching him sing "I write sins not tragedies" because I never realized that that was a hard song to sing. I'm a girl and that song is literally how I talk... Not criticizing him in any way, I just didn't realize the vocal range difference.

Yeah same, his falsetto is almost literally the exact same range as my chest voice.
Well the guy from Panic just has an ungodly range to begin with lol
As a tenor, my high range would be an average girl’s low(ish) range

hIS KERMIT VOICE IM COUGHING
Wow. This took balls to post too. Thanks for sharing your journey!
I had no singing ability my freshman and sophomore year, but when I started maturing and my voice got slightly deeper I got alot better. I mean, being in choir helped alot, but I think it's skill. skill trumps talent
skill IS talent
Huh?
Honestly anything can be learned. All talent is being able to learn something particularly faster, and still be good at it. Anyone can play the guitar for 10 years and be exceptionally skilled at it, however there are others who play it for 4 years and are already in the news. So if someone ever wants to be good at something, my only advice is that as long as you have the passion you will be good at it. ALSO, don't think that my words are attempting to make talented people out as bad people. If anything, while you are on a journey to achieve skill, look up to those people, and ask for advice. Some of them will say they can't help you because they are "just good" at it. And yeah sometimes that's true, so look for another. Worst comes to worse, just hang out with them more. Their talent will give you confidence.
I'm commenting on this post cuz I kinda just did so don't think this huge ass essay was meant for you xx :)
yeah, my friend in high school Danny was exceptionally talented and I would always ask him for advice
(Not trying to brag when I say this ):) I can easily say that talent exists and helps a *lot* with learning how to sing, however talent never makes you a better musician than someone else. It makes learning the SKILL of being a musician easier, yes, but doesn't make you immediatly better than someone else. I have found that I'm presonally very talented with vocal music. I've always been able to match pitches, and utilizing my soft-pallet and resonance within my skull has always come naturally to me. However, I know plenty of people who are just as good as me, and some that are even better than me - in both my Chamber and Jazz/Show Choir's - at being a musician. I'm great at reading rhythms, but finding intervals and naming notes is something that I struggle with on a day-to-day basis. Plenty of people look up to me in these choirs, and hell. I'm 90% positive my teachers don't even know I have a hard time finding pitches by reading a paper, but I do. The second I hear the key, I know exactly where my pitch is, sure. I can probably only hear a chord once and singe the entirety of a piece in the same key, even guessing what key-changes are made later on comes (for the most part) to me very easily. Does this make me a good musician? Well, yes, but someone with experience and the right skill-set can do those things just as easily as I can. My point is, talent is a blessing, and having it allows you to learn things much more quickly, but the education of the subject is what really makes you a "professional". Mozart didn't just see a piano and go "Oh, so all I have to do is wiggle my fingers" and then make a fucking masterpiece on the spot. That's just not how it works XD

I mean it was very good for a learner
Ari The Vampire Queen a lot of “rock”(or pop punk) singers can sing very well for example when Brendon Urie sang pop punk and stuff he could sing great(he still can) sorry if this sounds rude or something it’s not meant to haha

Even you learn to sing in a higher range ! It takes time and the right technique.
Here's a little tip! When singing high notes at the top of your range, I've noticed you furrow your eyebrows, when really, it's MUCH, much easier to raise your eyebrows and show expression when singing in order to get the sound you'd like to produce.
oh my, you almost had me rolling over the floor with your kermit voice, and at the end with "chocolate rain" XD
This was actually really fascinating to be honest, I'm interested to see how well everything would improve if you continued for another month!
I'd also be interested in what comes after the next month if you happen to decide to continue on past the second as well.
He'll definitely improve a lot more ;)
