Thanks Snorth - those are some great examples.

Greatly mixed with that backtrack! Did you make those solos? They had a nice John Petrucci vibe.

Singing was great. But you wish to add grit to the high notes you say? Well from a CVT perspective you are definetly in curbing. And if you want to add more grit to curbing I think the simplest way is simply by adding alot of twang(AKA Distinct Twang). This way the singing gets noticebly louder and more sharp. Another thing you could do is add distortion to your singing, but I can't really give any tips on that because I haven't learned that myself yet.

Oh and about the vowel on "more", if you really make sure it's the vowel "O" as in "woman" it will work perfectly with curbing. However if you want to go with a more "open vowel" as Michelle described it I would go with "OH" as in "Go". This will have to be done in overdrive though which is a different way of singing, but it would give you a very big volume boost that's for sure. "AH" works okey for overdrive to an extent, around E4 it gets abit hard and it's better to just sing OH or EY instead in the higher range.

Snorth - Thanks! Yes - I did all the backing tracks and production myself.

I appreciate your insight from the CVT perspective. Curbing you say? Cool - that was going to be one of my questions. I wish I could do the high stuff in overdrive (with distortion) but I don't think I could without killing my voice. There are a lot of C5's and B4's. I would have to train for that and build up to it right? I need to get into the CVT program at some point and learn that stuff...

Thanks Chele - I think I know what you mean and I will give that a try.

I like it. You've got a great voice and strong potential.

Sorry - I messed up the link - it should work now!

Before I joined this forum I couldn't sing this song without wrecking my voice. Thanks to this forum I can sing it healthy now, although I am not totally satisfied with the entire performance yet. I would like to add grit to the upper parts.

Please critique. Thank you!

Great song! Nice vocal performance and I like the lighting in the video. Are you thinking about adding any more instrumentation to the song?

MiykPace - You might try posting on the technique page. There are some good experts who spend a lot of time over there.

Great job on with the vocals! Your singing voice is really good - good control. The high screams are impressive too.
