Honestly she is it took me forever for me to find someone to explain the anatomy of the voice for me on RUclips so it isn't as hard to try to replicate what they are doing
That's absolutely true! The way you explain is crystal clear ... just like your voice! :) And I love that there are practical exercises to put to use! (not like on some other channels where as an exercise they show you some already mastered skill and just say - "repeat this" and I'm like ... WTH!?)
Most songs are doable for most ranges, singers don't sing unsingable songs. The issue tends to occur, as the lady suggested, when you're trying to go too fast, trying to get too many words out, tgsts the bit that takes practice. I slow the playback speed of almost all songs. Pitch is often off when you're not engaging thought and mouth movement with your voice, ie you need to practice it all, tongue twisters and speed up those, as suggested here, you haven't got a problem with the note, hearing it, hitting it, or your pitch, you have more likely got a problem with the change , doing it too fast and sometimes too slow. Keep going on scales and words until you can speed them both up
#2 for sure. I know I can hear pitch but can't quite bring it into singing actual words. When just singing a note and doing warm-ups, I'm in pitch, but something happens when I start to sing a song. I have an inkling it's because I get too in my head, whereas during the warm ups I'm just listening and aware of my breathing. Edit: Finished the video. This seems to happen with me regardless of the level of difficulty.. even with "Happy Birthday". I think it's because I am focusing on the lyrics in my head rather than listening to the note in my head. Idk... hopefully something clicks soon! Been trying for 8 years and keep thinking maybe I'm just incapable of getting anybetter and I just have to embrace being someone who enjoys singing but never sings in key. Lol. Too stubborn though.
What I find that helps, is to first make sure you are not tense at all. Nice loosey goosey (especially under your chin, this area should not be tense at all-put your thumb under there to feel as you sing). Then, hear the song you are trying to sing in your head, and then match what you are hearing with your imagination. (It also helps to sing along with someone else singing it a few times before attempting it on your own.) Pay really close attention on how they are pronouncing their vowels and consonants. Try and mimick it. (You can later mess around with your own version.) Another exercise that really helps you to get up into a strong head voice, is to sing your song saying GEE GEE GEE instead of the words (you will feel it in between your eyes and nose). Then, try singing the words right afterwards. Hope that helps.
2 was so obvious, I am very good at matching pitch so being tone deaf isn't the problem, but more of straining my voice when I try to sing high notes sometimes. We had several boys in choir this last year, around 15 or more, (they were bass and tenners) 4 - 5 altos, and 3 sopranos. I was soprano so singing loud with high notes all year for gospel type songs, really messed with the throat and how I sing for pop songs. So like is there a way to fix this maybe? I don't even fully understand what my problem is...
It kind of depends on which sort of speakers you are listening to. In my cheap speakers only the #1 is really in tune. The problem with the number 2 is that it gradually matches the pitch. It ends on pitch. Number 3 is also out of tune to my ears.
Assuming, you are not tone deaf, I think you thought she was still singing at the end. She decrescendos and pauses between each pitch. Her voice never matched on #2, she stopped singing and the note was the only thing playing. #3 is for sure on pitch but you may have some issues with your hearing in general (maybe tinnitus or tinnitus adjacent?). It makes pitches distorted for the hearer and there’s an after pitch ring.
2nd pitch was definitely almost a whole tone off. 1st and third pitch is just ever so slightly not matching due to sound quality, different speakers and maybe using a piano app...
its 2 and im not tone deaf and my ear is kinda trained cause when im making a song to find the key i sing the note to a tuner and i do get the key of the song but it is a bit flat or a bit sharp i want to know a way to be more close to the exact key not necessarily on 0 but closer
Interesting video! It would have helped me a lot when I couldn't sing on pitch some time ago, but I can share the video anyways :). I still have pitch problems when I try singing songs that are too high for me though XD.
Hi Foru, Thanks for the feedback and sharing your progress with working on your pitch! It is inspiring for everyone who experience it. Going for high notes is definitely also one of those moments where a lot of people experience pitchiness. And thanks so much for sharing the video. I really appreciate the support :)
I ve gained more wid you , but one thing i wanna tell you , tht i love your way of speaking and your facial expressions 🌹😌😉 . Love you ! Keep Teaching us !
#2 was close to a half-step sharp. It is hard for trained singers to off key (it actually gives me a sore throat quite quickly). Your "off" note was sung so well that I wonder if you were listening to the higher note while playing the lower note for us?
I have great voice but when i sing i cant sing so high so when i sing the tell me like we cant hear you or there is like fear in my theoat i cant sing and i dont know how ot practis
Okay but when a singer don't have any music in the background and then they sing how do we know they are off pitch? Because we compare the pitch of the voice too the pitch of the music being played right?
Just when I regained some desire to sing my hearing went bad. I still have to go to a docter to check up what the problem is with my one ear. It just seems to be blocked because of too much of ya know(the stuff we always have in our ears)probably from excessive cleaning. Sorry if it's too much info.
Years ago I went to a rally and cheered loudly. Next day I lost my voice for a couple days. My throat has been painful ever since when I try to sing. I was only just a recreational singer, but I was fairly good and enjoyed it. Now I try to sing and soon my throat is to painful. And, of course, I can't hold a note well--just all sorts of problems. Takes the fun out of singing. Surely there is some remedy for this, right?
I know nothing to music. i felt something was off about #2, but i got a little bit confused by how it almost sounded different yet harmonious (as a natural progression of the initial #2 sound)
I heard # 2 was out of pitch. That was easy when listening to you but I have a lot of trouble when I listen to myself. More times than not when I am singing with the HHT a cappella group they notice when I am out of pitch and I don't .
Hello! I am a singer approximately 7-8 years and i realized i am too often go out of tune for quarter note or sometimes half note, i am usually going out of tune either at the beginning or between the 2 different notes. I am wondering if it's normal for singers to not be completely in tune, if it's not normal, how do I fix it? I would appreciate it if you can help me, thank you!
I'm always slightly off pitch. When the external sound goes constantly up, I initially hear it going down and then, finally up. So, my singing is quite a mess. Recording myself, autotuning and listening to my own, autotuned voice helps. Lots of effort, but I like singing.
This is where my brain gets confused a little I can sometimes recognize it easy and am hyper critical But thinking about a note I wonder if for me being neurodivergent , it would be easier to know the notes I’m singing rather than trying to just do the thing without being able to clearly identify it or know what key I’m working in without googling and using tunebat even when writing music
I hear the difference but I don’t know if it’s wrong or right .. like I definitely thought 1 and 3 were better and more pleasing but I still didn’t think that 2 was wrong despite hearing the difference 😭 please help
A great vid, thank you! I can def hear when something is off when someone else sings it. When I sing, it sounds in my own head like I'm hitting the note, but when I record it and play it back, I can hear it's flat. Every note. How do I compensate for the difference between how it sounds in my own head and how it sounds outside of my head? They're not the same, I can tell when I play it back - so frustrating! :D Is there such a thing as "head acoustics"? LOL
I'm only a beginner so take with a grain of salt: Easiest thing is probably to listen to yourself on headphones while you sing, so you can always hear exactly how it really sounds. Otherwise, you might have to force yourself to sing a little higher than you think you should and get used to how that sounds.
When i sing freely without any instrumental, i sing on pitch but when i want to record while listening the instrumental, i start to sing off pitch :( My friend says that pitch depends on instrumental, is it real?
Ok I'd like to think I'm usually on pitch, not that I've asked anyone, too embarrassing, so singing is mainly in the car or in the shower. But the apps I have seem to confirm I'm fairly close. But, there's a but. On rare occasions while singing along to the radio I find I'm a bit off pitch. Unsure how. I try a higher pitch doesn't seem right, then a lower pitch, still not right, and I'm then confused. Is this an uncommon experience or well known ? Is there something I can do to avoid it ?
I can hear notes and if you go even a semitone off I know it but I can not replicate it at all. I think I sound horrible but everyone else things I sing good. What is up with that?
Hey I just saw your video on how to raise the soft palate. Do you think that it is possible to keep your soft palate raised during everyday conversations?
Hi Anmol Sharma, Thanks for your question I love it :) Yes, it is possible to raise your soft palate during everyday conversations and something that people do in various degrees without thinking about it. It could be something to focus on if you experience that your voice gets tired from speaking throughout the day.
so i thought it was #2 because it sounded like the piano note was a black key instead of white, but it sounded to me like you kept going up correctly, so you went 1,2,3 and the piano went 1, 2# (b?), 3. Is that right?
I was always told i was tonedeaf by my parents when i was younger, and i have no music theory or training or any of that. (i dont even know what pitch, key, tone etc really is), but when i sing i try to harmonize with a targeted note by feeling the resonance of my voice and the note, if it sounds/feels like its matching, then i call that a win, is that what im supposed to do?
Yo is 10 to 15 cents off bad? I've just been singing along for a while, and now I'm noticing my pitch might be slightly off and I'm having a bit of an existential crisis. It's not every note, but it's enough.
When I play guitar I lose 90% of my singing ability it drives me nuts, put the guitar down and I can sing again it's like flicking a switch. I can sing something perfectly in tune without the guitar but as soon as I pick the axe up I'm below average again.

#2 is off but you had such a great tone quality anyway!
Funny how I get an ad about using RUclips videos to help you sing. 😂😂
#2 for sure. I know I can hear pitch but can't quite bring it into singing actual words. When just singing a note and doing warm-ups, I'm in pitch, but something happens when I start to sing a song.

Me too! Did you find a solution?
i have the same issue 😭
What I find that helps, is to first make sure you are not tense at all. Nice loosey goosey (especially under your chin, this area should not be tense at all-put your thumb under there to feel as you sing). Then, hear the song you are trying to sing in your head, and then match what you are hearing with your imagination. (It also helps to sing along with someone else singing it a few times before attempting it on your own.) Pay really close attention on how they are pronouncing their vowels and consonants. Try and mimick it. (You can later mess around with your own version.) Another exercise that really helps you to get up into a strong head voice, is to sing your song saying GEE GEE GEE instead of the words (you will feel it in between your eyes and nose). Then, try singing the words right afterwards. Hope that helps.
Is it the second pitch out of tune ?
Yes it is! Good job :)
@@singgeek Thank you for the A. I am not tone deaf - check. But I hear the voices no more 😀😂
yes it is
Definitely 🙂
The first one was off by a decibel
This was a really good video! Thank you!
And definitely #2 was off 😬
I cringe so hard when I hear flat notes ☠️☠️☠️☠️
2 was so obvious, I am very good at matching pitch so being tone deaf isn't the problem, but more of straining my voice when I try to sing high notes sometimes.

try vowel modifikation techniques. Been a life saver for me
I seriously thought number 2 was the best. Omg I’m bad.

Eh, it's possible but probably not. Definitely do some more tests and practice some ear training before deciding.

Can you help me figure out why it feels like all of my tones have there own wall and won’t allow for a smooth transfer?
Definitely #2
Reason #1: Your ears.
I would expand tip #3. Being tired or not warming up also makes us get flat and use our throat incorrectly
#2, but it runs parallel to the original note and can be used on purpose. Not a goos example.
my problem is in musical memory. So hard for me to get the non easy intervals in my mind
1 is off a semitone and 2 is off completely. 3 was fine. Please let us know the answer.
Was wondering what "pitchy" singing meant. Listened and found in the first example that Pitch 2 sounded off.
How about if I find it difficult to hear near notes, semi tones, repeat notes?
Yup, the 2nd one was definitely an outlier!
What is resonance?
Is it wrong that I liked the pitch that was off the best?
#2. ❤️❤️
Yes! 😃
The second note sounds like an interesting dissonance needed to be resolve, so all of them are in tune to me haha
I too wanted to hear it slowly slide down as the alien mother ship comes into frame.
I guessed 2. I was very worried for a seconed thinking what if im tone deaf luckily i am not. lol
Does she give online voice lessons?
so i thought it was #2 because it sounded like the piano note was a black key instead of white, but it sounded to me like you kept going up correctly, so you went 1,2,3 and the piano went 1, 2# (b?), 3. Is that right?
I was always told i was tonedeaf by my parents when i was younger, and i have no music theory or training or any of that. (i dont even know what pitch, key, tone etc really is), but when i sing i try to harmonize with a targeted note by feeling the resonance of my voice and the note, if it sounds/feels like its matching, then i call that a win, is that what im supposed to do?

my head voice is. TERRIBLE. ugh. if only there was a pill for pitchiness
so it means 1 and 3 are on pitch ? in exercises number 1 ? i would really appreciate the answer
