    1. Chest voice
    2.head voice
    3.sing in mixed voice
    4.Find your genre
    5.Choose songs that fit your voice
    Don't mimic other singers. You can avoid this by speaking the words

    • @vedavyasa0304
      @vedavyasa0304 6 месяцев назад

      @GnatGames Sometimes ​also try to sing very loud (really I would say use a speaker and try to compete with it) but also trying to maintain the raga rhythm and pitch control. After a while start practicing without external music..... I think this helps in correcting in pitch somehow. It worked for me , not sure for others. Other methods I also followed but are too heavy like "fire in the mountains run run run " method but they are too hard.

  • @willard398

    50 yrs singing and still going. inhale like you do when you yawn. Inhale and fill your stomach and lungs full of air and you get more diaphragm control and your breath last twice as long allowing you to belt it out. This technique will shock you and can increase your register. Your a terrific singer and if you apply this you'll be singing in stadiums!

    You're so right. Once we sing in our real voice, we usually don't like how it sounds. But that's where our voice sounds most comfortable and authentic, from our heart and gut. And I'm sure many singers felt this way but it's our unique individual voices that appeal to people . And yes, when you try to imitate another singer that's outside of your natural range , it takes your breath out of you and strains your voice. Nice lesson. Thx

  • @ayuforpresident
    @ayuforpresident 3 года назад +2610

    this honestly was such a useful guide! i'm 14 and music is my passion but whenever i sing certain songs my voice tends to mimic the voice of the singer. especially when i'm singing along with the song. i desperately needed and simple yet effective way to find my voice and i feel like this is the one. i'll come back and update whenever i do find my own voice! thank you so much for this!
    edit: back again!!!! I've improved a lot!! fr this helped so much. In the beginning, my throat was having some trouble getting used to the new/correct technique and I kinda had a sore throat from the change in my vocal ig? I took some time off singing to give my throat some rest. I was being somewhat harsh on my vocal cords, straining them. so I needed some time to rest. I resumed a month later and I can definitely say this has helped me tons!

      You should try to test your voice out thru your nose, between your nose/throat, the back of your throat/mouth area, mid throat, and then finally down in your chest. If you can gain control like that, then it helps. Finally projection comes from your diaphragm and helps keep your voice steady and clear and can brighten it. You can work on diaphragm stuff by taking belly breaths... and then work on making your voice more projected by speaking/singing out with those breaths.

    I've been singing for almost 4 years now and what I've noticed is that you'll have moments where you like the sound of your voice better than other days. I've analyzed this phenomenon and I have made out a couple of things that consistently made my voice sound better:
    Having practiced the days before
    Sleeping 8 hours
    Brushing my teeth consistently
    Increasing my serotonin
    - exercising
    - working on my goals
    - socializing
    Not consuming caffeine in any form
    Not smoking weed
    (haven't made reliable observations with alcohol, tobacco or vaping because I never did that consistently)
    Not having eaten recently (definitely 90 minutes+, I like to eat when I can't sing anyway. Basically not having a full stomach, even after drinking a bunch of water I'd not get my voice out properly for a while)
    For men, increasing my testosterone by again exercising and not choking my wiener all the time also gave a lot of power to my voice, highly recommend.
    I hope this helps someone

    My parents told me I could do anything I worked at except singing. So of course after seeing how far my other talents might get me, I found a voice teacher and said, "I don't want to be a professional. I just want to be able to sing without having people run away with their hands over their ears." He used The Gesture to connect my head and chest voices. Everyone expected me to be an alto; I turned out to be a very high mezzo, almost a coloratura soprano. I couldn't stand my True Voice at first, either, and GREAT GRATITUDE to you for mentioning that. I was jolted to hear a powerful woman instead of a sweet girl. It helped me find my voice as a writer, too.

  • @tylershubert1596

    Very helpful hints. I think i am trying to work around the impossible unless i face it.
    1. Quit smoking and hopefully open up nasal congestion for a more clear sound.
    2. Sing from the chest not from the head which i tend to do. I also noticed I talk mumbly at times when I don't necessarily want to talk or feel anxious in any way. I definitely care what people think too much and causes me to be anxious when talking and then i cant even talk. I don't know when i developed this anxiety but anyways its just something to note that i have to communicate both talking and singing more clearer.
    3. I play guitar. Little known music theory but decent ear for it. I tend to focus more what i'm doing and the next lyrics then letting it come out naturally.
    4. I have a deeper tone than I want so i try to go higher than my voice allows me without starting to head sing. (I really love R&B) lol.
    5. Knowing I'm more capable than I give credit for. Practice practice practice

    I knew a woman who was doing rock blues. I saw her perform in a small club, she'd invited me. She ended the little show with Jolene, and she sang it very different. Her voice was big in a way it wasn't on her album or int he other songs, and the audience loved it. I told her afterwards she should consider doing more country. I'm a musician, I've played in bands, done summerstock, choirs, some production work. I think my ear is fairly good, my ideas are not always right, but I've been told I do hear things others don't. "Nope, you're totally wrong." I have never forgotten her words. She said that was just a song she liked, but her debut EP was blues and that's what she was - a blues singer. She released a couple albums with a more jazz blues feel. I lost track of her after a move. I found her again and she'd 100% reinvented herself as a .... a country singer. The look, the sound, the albums, and her career had gone to the next level even. So, finding your niche is key

    Thank you so much for the music lesson! I was told in junior high that I was a soprano. I now know it was because I was singing in my head voice because that is how I thought girls should sound. I never could carry a tune. Now, as an adult, I discovered that I can carry a tune in my chest voice...but as an alto, not a soprano. Singing has become fun! I'll never be a great singer, but at least I'm not afraid of singing out of tune anymore. Also, now I know what is meant by the head voice and chest voice that the music tv show judges are always talking about!! Great lesson. Thanks, again.

      I can do some Joan Baez or some Ethel Merman or early Bob Dylan or sing mezzo soprano repertoire or some rather convincing Julie Andrews don’t know what my own voice is although I have one friend who told me, they’re all your own voice.

    Great info! Never knew there was a “chest” voice but makes sense. I’m 54, (dislike my voice) and new to singing and piano (I’m
    a late bloomer). So anything I can learn to get better really helps. Thanks again.

    I think you just changed my life. I'm serious! I've always wanted to sing but thought I couldn't, because I'd only tried to mimic. I just tried your advice, signing some of my favorite songs with *my own* voice for the first time ever. I started just by speaking the words, and then sang them in a relaxed way the same as if I was speaking. It sounds totally different but is so much more natural and made me feel like I could actually get better at this! It was so joyful, I got teary. Thank you

    I've been singing from the age of 4, all they way to my current age. Im classically trained and tend to be in christian choirs. Not what my voice is build for at all! My voice is super sweet, and can be fairly deep and raspy sometimes so it's perfect for hyperpop and indie! I can't wait to be able to perform in my real voice

    you have no idea how much i needed this video, i've always felt sad bc everytime i sang a song i was doing my voice like the singers (but not in purpose, just like automatically) so i thought i didn't have an original voice but your video made me realize that kinda happens to everyone at first. thank you so much for your video and your advices 💕!

      Ikr! I’m a naturally low singer but I can still hit a higher note and it annoys me when they’re singing a note above my capability so I get annoyed and just lower the tone I use and it does work but sounds weird.

    Just found your channel while looking for tips on how to sing in a certain voice and wanted to say thank you. When you said in your videos that usually we try to imitate the voice of our favorite singers and that is not a good thing and that it is totally normal that you hate your own singing voice, it really hit me. I will work through your channel and start recording my own singing (even though I will probably also hate it at first). Greetings, a big karaoke fan

    This video helped me learn that I actually have a decently soothing true voice. So all these years of my voice changing over and over again every 5 hours, this deep and soothing voice was my real voice all this time.

    I've actually been singing like this for a long time. But I've always hated it and wanted to sound like other musicians that I love. I'm kinda glad for the advice of needing to get over not liking your voice. Even though I already know this, that made me realize I'm never gonna sound like them and I just need to sound like me. Great video thanks! 🙏🏾
