  • Do you hate the sound of your singing voice? You’re not alone. There are so many people who cringe whenever they hear their own voice played back on a recording. And some people don’t even like hearing their voice when they talk, let alone sing.
    If this is you, and you’d like to become a little more comfortable with the sound of your own voice, then keep watching because by the end of this video you’ll have experienced your voice in a whole new way. I know you’re going to love it!
    Stop hating and start loving your voice - drdan.co/onlinesinginglessons
    Trust me when I say, ‘You can learn to love, yes LOVE, the sound of your own voice!’ Now, that’s a big claim. I mean LOVE sits at the opposite end of the spectrum to hate right. So how do we swing your pendulum from one extreme to the other? Well, it all starts with a little bit of knowledge and some simple vocal activity’s, both of which I’m going to give you in this video.

    I did a two-year Performing Arts course back in my thirties, and being able to sing was obviously a large part of that course. I've always hated my singing voice, so the first thing I did was sign up for extra-curricular singing lessons with the teacher, because I was convinced I was going to epically fail the singing module of the course if I didn't. After a couple of lessons he asked me why I thought my voice was so sub-standard as to need the extra lessons. I said "because when I sing a Celine Dion song I open my mouth and I want Celine Dion to come out, but all that comes out is me."
    He laughed and said "Well, that's because you're NOT Celine Dion, are you? You're you. And sure, you might not sound like her when you sing one of her songs *like her,* but that doesn't necessarily mean you can't sound great if you just sing like *you* instead." Is there a way to break THAT mindset - the one of "if I can't sound exactly like the original singer, I will always sound terrible by comparison?"

      @billy-joestanton2663 4 года назад +27

      i think its because when you are harmonizing you arent trying to copy or re-create a pre-conceived sound or note. you are just going with what sounds best at the time. think of it like this, single notes vs chords. chords usually sound more full and enjoyable to hear. this is just it, its blending a mixture of things together into a more pleasant sound. you are also looking at the sound in a different way when you sing with someone else you are looking at your voice as to how well it sounds with theirs rather than alone. if you wanted to check out the video by Wheezer: Say it aint so. you will hear a distinct high pitch and honestly quite bad voice in the background for the first verse. it works for the song but the singing isnt great. isolating single sounds usually sounds strange. have confidence in your vocal skills rather than comparing them to others as we all have out own unique sound.

  • @kimfranklin
    @kimfranklin 4 года назад +4

    The one solution I found to getting over disliking the sound of my voice was to record myself a lot. When you constantly have to listen to your voice either because you are experimenting or you are trying to get a good recording, you will get more used to it as time goes on. I used to feel uncomfortable with my voice, until I had a job where I recorded software tutorials. There was no one else to do the voiceovers on the videos, just me. After a few years, I got over it. That spilled over into accepting my singing voice too. Can't take it back to the shop like a piece of clothing I don't like anymore. Best to work through the resistance, accept it and nurture it to be the best it can be. We've all got a phone with a voice memo app so no time like the present, get recording :)

    Hey Dr Dan, such a good video obviously loads of people can relate to! Thanks very much for those activities, which help me focus and become more aware.😊
    It's more often people aren't 100% happy with the sound their voice makes (ie we don't love the sound of our own voice) . Alot of it for me was ( note past tense!) insecurity, self criticism, comparing with others. You've really taught me to be so much more confident, and therefore allow myself freedom to explore, and yes, appreciate what I sound like .
    Thank you😊

    I just barely got comfortable with the way my voice is. I've practiced techniques for so long focusing on pitch and breathing techniques. Now that I'm better at those things the tone of my voice doesn't bother me half as much. The worst thing about listening to old recordings is hearing how off pitch i am or how i dont sound confident because I'm not pushing enough air out and singing quietly. The best thing that boosted my confidence was listening to a lot of people singing live without any effects and not much instrumentation because trust me I'm a music producer and i know that there's a lot that goes into mixing vocals. The hardest thing to fix in a recording is always pitch. Everybody has a unique voice so you should learn to love yours because no one could ever sing like you. If you want to know how to control the tone of your voice then get a science book and learn about the anatomy of the throat. There's a lot of moving parts that you can learn to use to control your tone

Result? I learned how to belt on my own, I am a soprano with range of E3 to B5 stable, ability to go up to E6. I love when I sing, I em relaxed I am very much in my own void, I really love music it helps me battle my depression and panic attacks, keeps me happy and when i sing its one of the only times when i (before being medicated) felt happy. However, even if people tell me they never expected me to sing this amazingly and emotionaly and powerfuly I JUST HATE IT. I have one song that i sang, placed for a soprano that i truly love. One and only.

    What makes me wonder, it's known that everybody can learn how to sing, but it doesn't necessarily mean that it sounds good... Or is it just a matter of practising? Will my voice sound better while singing high notes at some point?

      Olivia, it all takes time...and everyone's journey of vocal development is different. Additionally, everyone's destination is different also. Will your voice improve over time with consistent instruction and practice. Yes. But what this improvement looks like for you as an individual over time is yet to be seen.

    The only two things I hate with my voice are:
    1. It sounds too theatric and show-off-ey (I'm aiming for a Sinatra-like ease with my voice, not a 'vibrating' note)
    2. Although I have been told that I have a perfect pitch, this is only true for slower songs where I can focus on making 1 sound and then move on to the next. However, when I try to sing a song like 'Just one of those things', I get confused with how to transition, when to breathe, how to employ my diaphragm for proper singing technique etc.

    I always disliked my speaking and singing voice. I would hear recordings of myself when I was acting or singing. Everyone said I sounded great, but not to myself. I sang an important solo at my brother's wedding. Sound system in church was poor. Large building, 1 mic, several speakers pointed toward pews. There was a 1/4 second delay from sound from my mouth, to back wall, back to my ears. There were no monitors on stage. I thought I blew it, even apologized for bad performance. Later, I watched a video and I sounded really good after all. From that day on, I just had to remember what others hear is not what I hear.

    I know I have a high-pitched voice, but the extent of how much higher it sounds on a recording astounds me. It's disturbing, realizing that the way you sound to yourself is nothing like how you sound to the rest of the world. You think you have control over your voice, and then you realize you've never had a clue. I will admit, a lot of my joy in singing started to slip away once I tried recording myself. That joy was replaced by the horror of powerlessness at not being able to accurately perceive the very sounds created by my body.

      If they for example could make a karaoke-esque app that recorded you while you sang it with a song like, say, Jambalaya by Hank Williams. --- if each word that I sang as I sang it were highlighted in green for pitch correct, yellow for close and red for noticeably off and I could go back each time to refine it, it would help to reinforce my perception of when I'm noticeably off and when the pitch is correct or near that ball park.
