I would never trust a singing coach who doesnt show how they sing the songs themselves !!! Thats the basic.The coach sings the songs . You nailed it Ken ! 👌
David Coverdale is the king of rock ballads. His unique "whine" that carries thru a phrase and melts/blends words together gives him his amazing signature sound. He also has a way of carrying the sound vibrato into his sinus/face? that gives him almost a harmonic at the end of some of his phrases. Have never heard anyone pull off all the Coverdale nuances. He is one of a kind.
In the 90ies Jørn Lande proved several times that he can do it. Listen to his work with The Snakes or the first Ark album - that was very close to DC. After these recordings Jørn started putting more of his own personality in his voice, which I believe is the main key to his success (as no matter how good a copy is, there is only one original). Listen to his entire catalogue, and besides an occasional matter of taste ("Why exactly did he chose to cover this song?") you won't find anything to be critizised...maybe except for the question if a single person ought to be allowed to be so extremely talented.
I love me some whitesnake and David coverdale Ken what a awesome band and awesome rock vocalist is this love is probably my favorite whitesnake song such a beautiful ballad Ken you sing it great Ken your great at singing and demonstrating David your the man when it comes to demonstrations and singing like them always rocking Ken your the pro well done buddy love your students as well man 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Ken, you're always totally right..the proof is the singing. For me you're always the best as a teacher and as singer...with no doubt. I love your version and the song..of course. Happy new year Ken! 👍🎶
That was an outstanding performance and got better and better as you warmed up. Those runs at the end were off the charts and were the high point of the song. The only thing I'd add on this song is in order to make the high, start the first verse at a real low point. Not in a pitch sense but an emotional one and someone in deep despair. This person is at their wits end and "can't take it anymore". It's some super powerful writing there and something Coverdale nailed and this track with the mood coloring at the beginning. But this cover is one for the books for sure.
Periodically I just feel a need to thank Ken for his remarkable and consistent efforts to both educate and improve the singing technique and knowledge of a million subscribers and very likely millions more casual viewers. The caliber of your work, the regularity of your uploads and the astonishing quality of FREE musical experience and wisdom you impart has been a consistent source of wonder and joy over the years. Thank you Ken!
Your singing demonstrations are always on point in contrast to those of other vocal coaches on RUclips, and I love how you demonstrated how to sing Is This Love.
My god i have zero knowledge about music except that i like it and expecially your voice. I still watched every second of this video with a lot of concentration which proves you are a good teacher. Keep it up! And a happy new year !
I also teach singing lessons in my country and totally agree with you. Some of this "teachers" pass and talk bout techniques, but they themselves can't execute. Hey, your tan in the video was really good!!
First off, you rule. I'm not sure if it was Slip Of The Tongue or the self titled album but where each musician states their guitars, amps, drums, cymbals etc. David's list is just Marlboro. Classic and epic.
Ken, my wife laughed at me when I told her over wine last night that I wanted to sing... actually sing. I just found you and I think there is hope. I play piano/keyboards and am good at that but I have been an awful singer. I have issues with the high notes but just in the short time... you have given me hope!!!
Ken, I saw your son on TV today. Very impressed by him. Was already impressed with you, that is why I was following you here on YT. God Bless you and your Family. They are the most important parts of our lives. P. S. you would have been awesome in Journey, but you are a Super star as a Father. Happy New Year Buddy!
Thank God for your channel and awesome singing tips!! I think it would be really cool if you could do how to sing like Eric Clapton. Particularly “Layla” my favorite song ever, or “Key to the Highway”, or “ Have You Ever Loved a Woman” where he sounds kind of throaty and does that blues style belting stuff. I really wanna learn how to do that. And I’m sure the other guitarists watching your videos would be really happy to see that
Love the vocal break down Ken!! I love your vocal control and timbre to your voice! I would love to hear you handle early Uriah Heep music..... Hint... Hint.... 😉
Happy New Year Ken! I love your channel - my favorite - and I do so appreciate everything that I have learned. You have brought so much happiness to a woman who didn't have such a happy 2021. God bless you my brother.
To be able to demonstrate the correct and the wrong way can do only someone who has mastered control of their voice and that someone is undoubtedly you Ken, I love how you make it look so easy but I know it isn't, love the song and you nailed it as always. Happy new year Ken
Amazing version of this! Watching your videos has made me consider trying to learn to sing. I've been afraid to sing my whole life but you break things down to where it doesn't seem like singing well would be too daunting. Thank you Ken. I would really love to hear you sing Who Wants to Live Forever by Queen. It's one of my all time favorites. Happy New Year!
I'm more of a technical guitar player but I always have a great appreciation for some singers . There's a song you did with Cordola , House of Love and others that has a Coverdale vibe to it . Love it !
One of my favorite esp when he made whitesnake and his short tenure in deep purple but saw him few years ago and his voice is gone - Prob why he’s retiring
Isn’t that the song WS originally have written for Tina Turner, but David later decided to keep it??? R.I.P Tina.. Course it really got to hold me” A Hold On Me” My favorite part of the chorus… That solo hits me every time… I love that groove and leaning into that sound right there…
Awesome video on step by step, thanks for the demo bro! Hey Ken I wanted to share this Bruce D interview on his voice, a little off topic...this song is beautiful and smooth! Happy New Year, thank you Ken...
Ken would be interested to hear your review of MARK FARNER))) when I listen to the music of this group, goosebumps run down my spine))))) thanks - The Locomotion)))))))))))))
Like if you too came here expecting the explanation on how to sing the "so I can hold you in my arms" part. 💔 anyway excelent video as always Ken! You're the best teacher out there.
I like your face expression while you listen to yourself 😅. I've said to my husband, you must listen to Ken singing is this love, come on! He askes for who of this two guys!? Oh, its the same person... 🤣🤣🤣
I love how you broke this down for us to understand better. I’m sitting here singing with you and taking every tip you give us. You’re the best Ken!! Happy New Year!🎶💖🥳💖🎶
Love the vids . Really considering taking part in your course . I play instruments and wanna sing. I do a bit . I notice your tongue always moves a lot . I take it this is practiced and important ? Thank you for awesome content 🙌

I sing karaoke, strictly for fun. I know I'm okay, but I'd love to be better than okay. This is a song I've always wanted to do well with, but I struggle in the highest pitches. I'll sing Doors and I'll sing Styx. I'll sing STP and I'll even sing Ozzy. But I don't even think I'm singing those right. One of these days, I'll take a course.
Hi Ken i have watched a heap of your videos and each time i get all warm and fuzzy inside... But all the lessons wont help, (and iv had a few) if i have no direction, Blues, rock, ballards? do you teach that?
Pretty good Ken. You are adding extra note runs that are not in the original, like "sleepless NIGHTS" and overall your tone is a little "pinched" and not as open as Coverdale. That would probably improve by removing all the extra vocal runs at the end of phrases. Hey, I can't sing like you but I worked with a thousand vocalists on thousands of songs and know what I hear. But perhaps you were not going for a perfect copy, cheers and no offence was intended.
I would never trust a singing coach who doesnt show how they sing the songs themselves !!! Thats the basic.The coach sings the songs . You nailed it Ken ! 👌
Wow!David coverdale! This is Awesome.
Happy 2⃣0⃣2⃣2⃣ ken.
Happy new year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!
Ken, you're always totally right..the proof is the singing.
For me you're always the best as a teacher and as singer...with no doubt.
I love your version and the song..of course.
Happy new year Ken! 👍🎶
I agree with you Professor. Ken! 👍👍👍👍
Your natural voice is so suited for that tune Ken. Nice.
You’re not weird, my friend…you’re freakin’ AMAZING! 🤩♥️
Great job in the song.
Great demonstration, Happy New Year🎉
Your videos are consistently informative and in depth without being boring. Great job. You actually show what people need to see/hear.
That was an outstanding performance and got better and better as you warmed up. Those runs at the end were off the charts and were the high point of the song. The only thing I'd add on this song is in order to make the high, start the first verse at a real low point. Not in a pitch sense but an emotional one and someone in deep despair. This person is at their wits end and "can't take it anymore". It's some super powerful writing there and something Coverdale nailed and this track with the mood coloring at the beginning. But this cover is one for the books for sure.
One of my favorite rock ballads of all time - and you do it with brilliance, Ken.
Ken, I know you normally refuse to do outright impersonations, but your Neil Diamond was pretty spot on.👍😉
Periodically I just feel a need to thank Ken for his remarkable and consistent efforts to both educate and improve the singing technique and knowledge of a million subscribers and very likely millions more casual viewers. The caliber of your work, the regularity of your uploads and the astonishing quality of FREE musical experience and wisdom you impart has been a consistent source of wonder and joy over the years. Thank you Ken!
Just by watching how you place your tongue as you sing, we know you are a good vocal coach and teacher!
One of my favorite bands!! As usual, you did amazing!!! Happy New Year!
Brilliant, as always 👍
Your singing demonstrations are always on point in contrast to those of other vocal coaches on RUclips, and I love how you demonstrated how to sing Is This Love.
Oh and Happy New Year to you and the family 😃
My god i have zero knowledge about music except that i like it and expecially your voice. I still watched every second of this video with a lot of concentration which proves you are a good teacher. Keep it up! And a happy new year !
Great!!❤️🙏🏼👏and we creative artistic ones are weird- it takes ones to know ones lol. Great descriptions and great techniques. Amazing.
I've learned so much since I've started watching this channel. I know nothing about music but I like to listen to it.
Hi Ken. Your voice is so cool. Thanks all your videos 2021. I wish you a Happy New Year🌟
Happy new year!
Yep
You are spot on with the Neil Diamond analogy. I cal that the personality of the the vocal. 👍
Love this song
I also teach singing lessons in my country and totally agree with you. Some of this "teachers" pass and talk bout techniques, but they themselves can't execute. Hey, your tan in the video was really good!!
Hey Ken you should sing can't get enuff or enough by winger
Briliant!!
watchng Ken in this video is like watching Prince play something funky on the bass
First off, you rule. I'm not sure if it was Slip Of The Tongue or the self titled album but where each musician states their guitars, amps, drums, cymbals etc. David's list is just Marlboro. Classic and epic.
Ken, my wife laughed at me when I told her over wine last night that I wanted to sing... actually sing. I just found you and I think there is hope. I play piano/keyboards and am good at that but I have been an awful singer. I have issues with the high notes but just in the short time... you have given me hope!!!
You can do this!
Your version is fantastic! Keep the music coming...love this channel. 😊 Happy New Year!
Thank You! Awesome video. 😃 Like I just got a vocal tune up bro! Hey, that's sounds a great video idea "Vocal tune up" for experienced singers 😀
Amazing
Que excelente la verdad, gracias por la version. En disco no lo tiene disponible para comprar. ???
Ken, I saw your son on TV today. Very impressed by him. Was already impressed with you, that is why I was following you here on YT. God Bless you and your Family. They are the most important parts of our lives.
P. S. you would have been awesome in Journey, but you are a Super star as a Father.
Happy New Year Buddy!
Sounds incredible!
Nice demonstration coach

I love you Ken ❤️❤️❤️❤️believe me if I could sing I would definitely would sign in
Love the vocal break down Ken!! I love your vocal control and timbre to your voice! I would love to hear you handle early Uriah Heep music..... Hint... Hint.... 😉

Wow this is brilliant
One of my favorite esp when he made whitesnake and his short tenure in deep purple but saw him few years ago and his voice is gone - Prob why he’s retiring
Happy new Year
Isn’t that the song WS originally have written for Tina Turner, but David later decided to keep it???
R.I.P Tina..

Only because it keeps me accountable. So my problem not you or course
Happy New year Ken
Happy new year!
Thanks Ken appreciate it
I sing karaoke, strictly for fun. I know I'm okay, but I'd love to be better than okay. This is a song I've always wanted to do well with, but I struggle in the highest pitches.

Yes. kentamplinvocalacademy.com/
Excellent Video . Ken I would love to hear you redo Sammy Hagar - Returning Home !!!!! Great underated Jam!
Pretty good Ken. You are adding extra note runs that are not in the original, like "sleepless NIGHTS" and overall your tone is a little "pinched" and not as open as Coverdale.

But perhaps you were not going for a perfect copy, cheers and no offence was intended.
Ken "The Magician" Tamplin does it again. The range you gotta have to go from Morten Harket to David Coverdale.
you should do a dockken cover
