Hey - thanks so much! Then I'm just gonna keep pushing then! Take care!

Thanks for the advice, ronws. I appreciate the "modern torch singer" description because it continues to help me mold a brand for myself. And I like your term - the "talent manufacturing" mills. I'm finishing up on my second album right now. We released some of the tracks it digitally last fall, but I'm still trying to work up a buzz about it. I do plan to just keep recording and promoting myself - and hopefully get some momentum going with my thing... I'm not sure why the other link didn't work, but here's a link my Facebook page with the gospel song on it: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Michele-Thomas/43260405644#!/video/video.php?v=1215040702664&subj=743445943 Thanks again! Hope to connect again with you soon! - M.

So I've already posted about this today, but now I'm hoping that someone could give some helpful critique on my singing in two different styles. Gospel and jazz. Though gospel music is in my blood, jazz became my biggest passion particularly because of it's diversity and fusion of all musical styles - and because it was not a "belt-dominant" style which I thought my voice was better suited for. I still am discovering new things about my singing ability, but I would like to hear some thoughts from a more progressive thinking community of vocal coaches and singers about what they think is going on. I'm hoping to gain further insight into my own voice and thus being able to help my students more. Thanks again for any comments! - Michele T.
