Michael had 3.5 octaves (F#2 to C#6), which for a professional male singer is good but for a trained tenor is pretty typical. For a male, however, IS striking that he was in the fifth octave all the time.

I warm up by singing songs now. When you start to get very familiar with your voice you just know what you can do straight away. I finally got "inalare la voce" in muscle memory. For me I go through a lyric sheet and see where crescendo and decrescendo needs to be and if I want vibrato or not on certain words. When you get to that level its how you want to present the song to someone. I use to not be able to do an entire song at all and it took me two years to get to this point. There are no set in stone exercises that will get you there. It's hard work and dedication plus a good teacher. When it finally clicked. You can add runs here and there, do some vibrato or you can make it beautiful by la voce. It's being you, and doing what you want on the song. Exercises are just exercises in the end. I learned this the hard way. Students need to learn how to use that exercise in a song and incorporate it in the music. I was very monkey minded and went in a loop over and over trying to get "mixed" voice. Then I realized wait, I have it then I started to just open up lyric pages and sing the songs without backing tracks. For new comers it will take a while, just be patient with yourself.
Same! I'm singing like all my life and I used to do many warm ups.But now I just need to sing 2-3 songs to have my voice all set up. Same thing was with extreme vocals, when I started i needed at least 20 minutes of different exercises to fint "that" position. But now it's muscle memory and I can just sing it. It really takes a while and u need to be patient
Michael Jackson Is Thee Greatest Singer Of All Time!😇🙌🏽👑💖🔥💫(That’s the power of MJ you can't really directly compare male to female singers. Because females are naturally in the soprano's range. However,no singer has a distinct tone,voice,character and range comparable to that of Michael Jackson. Every world class opera singer can sing like Mariah,or anyone for that matter But nobody can sing like Michael Jackson and still sound nearly as great as him in the history of mankind. This same applies to his live performances and dance moves etc.)
This is objectively untrue. I love MJ's voice, I think he was amongst the top 10 vocalists in documented human history. THE best? No. Fanaticism is stupid, and a sign of a weak mind. There is no such thing as THE best vocalist. Michael wouldn't be able to sing operatic bass, for instance, but there's singers out there who are unbelievably talented at that sort of thing. And yet none of them can sing pop baritone, generally. So it goes. There is no "best" singer. Every singer, no matter how amazing they are, is unique. The idea of comparing them, outside of covers, is such a foolish game that should have ceased to be played years ago.
@@pleasegoawaydude Being objective does you no service it only proves my point being unique is only one aspect of being talented and a great singer etc. all I said were facts so keep on spilling your soliloquies while MJ remains THEE GREATEST SINGER OF ALL TIME FOREVER!👑🌟
Thank you very much for your reaction. Regarding Michael and low notes, I recommend you listen to the song "2000 Watts". Many users do not believe that this is the voice of Michael Jackson.
For anyone listening to Michael Jackson's vocal warm ups (with Seth Riggs), use it as a guide when you're warming up. Modify it to your liking and adjust it according to your vocal register. I've tried this warm up back when I was in choir and little did I know that these warm ups were beyond my skill level to the point that I got winded every time I did it. Haha. It goes to show that Michael Jackson was a gifted vocalist and we should be thankful he shared his gift of singing and songwriting to the entire world.
Maybe flying through exercises allows you to not care to much about breaks and such and let go of the mind set of being perfect. Then, when you focus in and slow it down you can be way freer psychologically. Awesome video!
Hi Ramsey. Wow thank you so much for the outline of Seths vocal sessions/lessons with Michael❤️🙏🏼👑✨❤️No one will ever be like Michael Jackson. He is In his own Individual realm of excellence.
Seth is actually an excellent singer. He does have some vocal damage, and I think that shows in the timber of his voice. But, mae no mistake, I've heard him sing a song dynamically, soulfully, and played to the audience. He also has a very different voice from Michael's I believe. He has spend years doing vocal exercises with singers, and a warm up is not like singing a song. Seth has also done vocal therapy for people. He knows his way around the voice.
You said it's not necessary to be a better singer than the student itself, but how could you possibly or practically guide a student(s). I believe Ken Templin is still the best because he knows where he leads practically.
Michael Jackson is the GREATEST OF ALL TIME and you did the vocals so well 0:58 no it isn't in 1994 he was lighter and he didn't your in 94 that's 1987-88
@@michaeljacksonfanclub8019 Yeah, that´s right... there was the Dangerous Tour from 1992 to 93 and later the HIStory Tour from 1996 to 97... No Tour in 1994...
For me, a good teacher, is someone that see your potential, and help you, do the best you can with your instrument/voice. I saw this video 2years ago, and I was: this is a great connection and trust between the signer and his vocal coach. First, I need to trust the teacher , no judgment, just being a team. 🍪 And after, only, I can give my best. A good teacher knows you and when it is the good time to push and ask more, to make you progress 🤓
I've often wondered if singing teachers need to be able to sing well to teach well. Can you be a good football manager without knowing how to play football well? I've had a few singing teachers who are really excellent at the exercises they give and yet, translating that into songs, they just sound "ok".
Singing teachers need to sing well is not the same being a manager without knowing football you do more thinking for the people the do all the muscle part, in singing you need to teach an individual not just how to sing but how to sing with proper technique, what you should feel when doing any technique, is a lot of muscle memory to be honest but remember that if you have a good singing teacher that is not just making you do scales but teach you how to breath, what you should feel when breathing, exhale, keep your throat open and open it back up after being closed on a consonant, when you find the good one that tells you "if you feel this while singing your are doing it wrong, you should feel this and that" and then going from there you are gonna grow, but if you have bunch of sessions where you only go to do scales like "meow meow meow meow, gee gee gee gee without knowing if you are doing it properly you are gonna just sound "ok" or not even okey, singing a song is not the same that singing scales, you have to put in flavor, vibrato, rasp, belting, etc and for that you need a good vocal coach for that, one that helps you get the proper muscle memory so rock every singing style if you want without losing and hurting your voice, still waiting for this coach to actually sing something.
"you don't have to be a better singer than your student" hahaha yeah not necessarily but EVERYONE is gonna go for the coach who sings as best as humanly possible FOR themselves, a perfect coach has to know everything there is to know about voice
@@mikehopkins4040 well that's a bad comparison, chickenpox checking with vocal mastery, but yeah you don't necessarily need to have chickenpox to know its symptoms but you have to have chickenpox mastery to know how to treat it the best way, what I only mean to say actually is that if he's not better than some students and admits it that's ok, that would happen anyways unless he was a vocal master, but saying that a coach doesn't have to be better than the student, that's just wrong. It's way more adequate and appropriate for the society if its coaches and teachers know and master pretty much everything there is about their specialty
The recording is from 1994 but from when he was recording the song D.S. which is why he discussed how to sing "He's a cold man" and Seth suggesting he could sing "He's a gold man" if he get away with it.
This was very enlighting. I just recently learned how to sing high notes effortlessly. I kove it and have been singing now more than ever. Actually I never practiced before almost daily.
Thank you for such a refreshing way of observing and listening to Michael Jackson being warmed by Seth. And for reminding us that “One Size doesn’t fit all!”
Very sad that it is this way after his death, but one of the best things ever for Michael's image has been the treasure trove of candid footage, leaked content and audio revealing the man he was. He became too alien to people and it really swayed public opinion when it mattered most. It was hard to know whether he was just saying what people wanted to hear or understand what might have been going on behind the scenes. People only saw snippets of his life. Without social media the tabloids were people's point of contact with Michael and the handful of televised interviews he did.
Haha 😂Im so glad you called out that arrogant vocal coach Ken. I always thought he is soooo judgmental and over opinionated in a negative way. This is a great video 👍🏼
Oh, I really like that little remark about Ken Templin. Many might like him, but I find him a pain in the ases. And I find his singing quite irritating, the way he lifts his tongue, as if a snake was about to bit me. Well, that's just me. Or maybe not.
In fairness Seth Riggs is 93. He sounds and looks decades younger. I would half-agree with what you said about vocal coaches not having to be better than their student. I think that can only be true if the coach's voice was damaged in some way. But there's a difference between being able to sing with the exception that something went wrong with your voice, versus never having learned how to sing but still thinking you can teach others.
His long-term background vocalist and writer of the song. Man in the mirror Siedah Garrett tried going to Michael’s vocal coach, and she said it messed up her vocal cords so bad that I think she ended up with nodes that her doctor was so angry about that. He had to call the vocal coach and tell him to stop messing up his work.
agree on the point Teaching is about to get points across, guide and make students improove. As for the warm up many things are missing to what i would considere a good warm up. Many routines are to rigid as not dynamic enough to really really push through. But for Michael Jackson it worked😊and its for shure not a bad routine. Having illness right now. Plan to do a tutorial on what i exactly mean in the future. Thanks
Thank you! What I asked myself... Michael Jackson didn't sing everything live during his Tours, and in the 1996/97 Tour nearly nothing... Why did he have to warm up so much then?
You shouldn't trash the coattails you jump on. MJ's vocal lesson with Seth is the best thing since penicillin. The problem I'm thinking you're having is that it's free.
"just because you don't have the key to unlock your own chains, doesn't mean you can't hand me the key to unlock mine" or something to that effect something I heard not too long ago about teaching & mentoring. dunno just jumped into my head when you were talking about Seth not being a better singer than Michael fucking Jackson lol
Is there any point where unable to be quiet on high pitch is normal? Everything after A5 for me is loud. I'm working on my D#6 break, but I honestly have no idea how to hit those quietly.
Hello Ramsey I don't know how to sing at all Can Speech level singing help me to learn how to sing Or it only works for people who already have little knowledge of singing
I have a problem with finding my range. I don't know what I am baritone tenor bass or even countertenor. I have a light tessitura while singing but when I sing low notes I sound like a natural bass. My chest voice is from F2 to G4 and my head voice is from C3 to E6. I just don't get it. I feel so confused. Help please.
Lately every single trainer I try to work with, does not "believe in" warm up exercises or going through the scales. They ONLY want to work on improving a song. I don't understand it
It depends on natural vocal timbre(tone of your voice) light, bright, Clear = Tenor, Rich, a little Deep, warm, velvety= Baritone very dark and deep, Dense, heavy ,a little bit scary sound = Bass
@@garfieldch9895 Anybody can sound tenorish or baritoneish based on placement. "Natural" timbre is a stretch. Operatic tenors using a low larynx would sound like baritones to people who don't know anything. The high baritone (most males) and tenor dividing line is far more subjective than people think it is,
A reason Seth might not have given the bratty exercise to Michael is because Michaels voice already had a lot of that bratty and nasally tone to it, and if he added them his voice it would be too much, if you know what I mean
Yeah. Hmm. Lot of people would say that Michael, whist brilliant, was not a technically strong singer. Some would argue that a different approach to singing (not sls) might have done a better job. In my experience, getting into classical voice lessons and techniques can help a person massively enhance their voice. As to this video, I’m not sure I agree with the analysis, and your voice feeling tired after a warmup doesn’t sound right to me (at all), it sounds like imitating a person with a different voice type might have made you pull up chest voice and not transition correctly. I see you advertise yourself as a voice coach here but I would suggest you maybe learn a bit more about alternative techniques particularly classically based.
He was an extremely well trained technical singer, and I think it shows that he sang his whole life. I think his technique had a lot of layers. His teacher actually does classical a lot, although he isn't known for it as much as his famous students that were in pop R&B etc. Doing a ton of different styles is overated. He was focusing on what he needed to do and his voice was also a brand.

04:49 hahaha ha love it mate 😆 🤛🤛🤛👌👌
agree on the point Teaching is about to get points across, guide and make students improove. As for the warm up many things are missing to what i would considere a good warm up. Many routines are to rigid as not dynamic enough to really really push through. But for Michael Jackson it worked😊and its for shure not a bad routine. Having illness right now. Plan to do a tutorial on what i exactly mean in the future. Thanks
Thank you!
What I asked myself... Michael Jackson didn't sing everything live during his Tours, and in the 1996/97 Tour nearly nothing... Why did he have to warm up so much then?
He still sang live, he just had playback over it. He started using a lot more playback because he got laryngitis during this tour
Pull a 2-3 hour concert while singing the entire time. It’s not easy lmao
Excellent!
Legato is so that you do not become dependent on the consonant sounds. 😁
You shouldn't trash the coattails you jump on. MJ's vocal lesson with Seth is the best thing since penicillin. The problem I'm thinking you're having is that it's free.
hi, Ramsey, why is there a Chinese poster on the wall? does that mean u can teach people with Chinese, that's cool
Lol, try it, is the operative word. Matt learned how hard it is, now I do, also.
Michael sold over 1 Billion records worldwide.
Hi, Ken Tamplin at 4:48.....
In college we did alot of me, may, ma, mo moo.
I Love Seth!!!!!
Extremely hard.
Mj is the one of the best maybe the best in the WORLD! Not only in America.
What's your lowest note, Matt?
I use it alot . It helps clear phlegm and have that crisp voice
Way is dear any one sounds like hem still not in 2022 he was to uniek performing ad age of 5, dad's way he have the vois of an angel 🧚
Wrong! In 1994 he wasnt on tour..
"just because you don't have the key to unlock your own chains, doesn't mean you can't hand me the key to unlock mine"
or something to that effect
something I heard not too long ago about teaching & mentoring. dunno just jumped into my head when you were talking about Seth not being a better singer than Michael fucking Jackson lol
Thanks!
2,000 Watts by Micheal Jackson is one of the few songs that features his low voice
Is there any point where unable to be quiet on high pitch is normal? Everything after A5 for me is loud. I'm working on my D#6 break, but I honestly have no idea how to hit those quietly.
Hello Ramsey
I don't know how to sing at all
Can Speech level singing help me to learn how to sing
Or it only works for people who already have little knowledge of singing
2:13
I have a problem with finding my range. I don't know what I am baritone tenor bass or even countertenor. I have a light tessitura while singing but when I sing low notes I sound like a natural bass. My chest voice is from F2 to G4 and my head voice is from C3 to E6. I just don't get it. I feel so confused. Help please.
there is no way in hell you get your head voice to read that low nor high
@@Vlek I'm not lying. There are people out there who have a greater range than me. Just because you might not have it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
I’d say probably an upper baritone or tenor with lower extension. My chest range is E2-G4 and my falsetto hits Bb5 consistently.
6:22 You can't make it cause you sing Ahh vertically. If you sing more horizontally with higher larynx not Ahh but Eahh you will make it.
Go watch the wiz you will hear him get really low
1984 session not 94. as you can tell by appearance and vocal tonality.
Lately every single trainer I try to work with, does not "believe in" warm up exercises or going through the scales. They ONLY want to work on improving a song. I don't understand it
Mjj had deep voice too
King of entertainment **
Lol I have that very same guitar music poster
😍😍😍
❤❤❤👑
Can u plz tell me my voice type if my vocal range is from F2 to C7 and I'm a male
That C7 is a whistle note lol. What's your actual highest chest note and what's your voice like (heavy, light, etc)?
@@deathrattle216 my highest head note is c6 , yeppp my voice is kindofff lill bit heavy not too much but yeah
It depends on natural vocal timbre(tone of your voice)
light, bright, Clear = Tenor,
Rich, a little Deep, warm, velvety= Baritone
very dark and deep, Dense, heavy ,a little bit scary sound = Bass
@@garfieldch9895 Anybody can sound tenorish or baritoneish based on placement. "Natural" timbre is a stretch. Operatic tenors using a low larynx would sound like baritones to people who don't know anything. The high baritone (most males) and tenor dividing line is far more subjective than people think it is,
Michael wasn't on tour in 1994...
Why do artists keep their vocal exercises a secret?? It would help amateur singers so much!
I did it and I can do it every day
Did you know that he and Seth would always begin with a prayer first?
Transform? No. A premise is Seth Riggs' "bridging"!
Bridging has helped me climb the scale beyond my perceived Passaggio.
michael wasnt on tour in 1994
Hey Ramsey, how to book a vocal session with you, please do share some details 🙏
How can I register for an online class
you have the practice link form the voice.
A reason Seth might not have given the bratty exercise to Michael is because Michaels voice already had a lot of that bratty and nasally tone to it, and if he added them his voice it would be too much, if you know what I mean
Hi am from trinidad how can i purchace
I need help i want to learn how to sing soo fuckin bad mann but idk any trustworthy sites
Do you actually sing on a video Matt?
Great singers, guitar players, athletes, intellectuals don't usually make good teachers. Teaching requires a lot of thought and pedagogy.
Michael Jackson, the secret love child of Diana Ross and Smokey Robinson 😮
why did you put ken tamplin's picture at 4:48 - 4:50
Yeah. Hmm. Lot of people would say that Michael, whist brilliant, was not a technically strong singer. Some would argue that a different approach to singing (not sls) might have done a better job. In my experience, getting into classical voice lessons and techniques can help a person massively enhance their voice.
As to this video, I’m not sure I agree with the analysis, and your voice feeling tired after a warmup doesn’t sound right to me (at all), it sounds like imitating a person with a different voice type might have made you pull up chest voice and not transition correctly. I see you advertise yourself as a voice coach here but I would suggest you maybe learn a bit more about alternative techniques particularly classically based.
He was an extremely well trained technical singer, and I think it shows that he sang his whole life. I think his technique had a lot of layers. His teacher actually does classical a lot, although he isn't known for it as much as his famous students that were in pop R&B etc. Doing a ton of different styles is overated. He was focusing on what he needed to do and his voice was also a brand.
