      Is this sliding a good habit? I usually just try again, I don't try to slide because I'm worried that I might get a bad habit of not hitting the note and then sliding into it.

        Thank you very much. My biggest problem is the fact that I am unable to be on pitch from the beginning to the end of a song, I have to repeat parts and sometimes look for the note to start off well. I have to improve my skill of matching what I hear with what I sing.   Currently if you played a note on a piano I wouldn't be able to just hit it right away (well, sometimes I would, like 50-60% of the times). I would hear that I am off pitch right away though and would hear when I am on it. I seem to have trouble with feeling which tone to produce.

    Thank you, rowns. Yes, I am aware that it's a cover , I am using the Metallica version, because as I am a beginner it is easier for me right now. I try not to push myself too hard before learning more technique.

    Hey guys, sorry for another Metallica song, but I started it so I thought I might try to do the whole thing.   Right now I have just the beginning before the chorus and I am not sure what to think about it. Could you please check it out and tell me whether it sounds at least okay? I have some pitch problems here, I suppose I'm off pitch at the beginning of that aggressive part (too high).   But I would rather like to listen to you instead of giving my biased opinions.   I'll be very grateful If you check that out.   Thank you guys!   The recording: https://soundcloud.com/pe-ter/ttp3/s-oNQDH

      Thank you for your opinion. I've practiced this song for about 1.5 hour (this particular part, I was repeating it during recording) before recording that final version. I had trouble with the endings of each line. They throw me off a little bit, I'm not skilled enough yet to nail them. I'm pretty new to singing to instrumentals though.

      Great, thanks for warning me too, it's a crucial piece of advice. One thing that helps me out in understanding what you say about those feelings you get is the fact that for the last few years I've been using my voice in various ways, that was always my passion. Singing, rapping, being a radio host. I've even been a telemarketer for a year. I used to do some voice-over work. I worked in dubbing. That job requires you to change your voice very significantly. So that no one would recognize you only by listening to you. It made me aware of my vocal cords.   This might make it more safe for me to try the things you're talking about. I'm very grateful for your tips. You and MDEW really help me out on these Forums.

    Thank you very much. I try to copy artists first before creating my own style. I need a base, few styles that I can use and later mold my own style from them. I did that in rap because it was too hard to start with my own style right away. So I am keeping an eye on that and I will try to kill any noticeable influence as soon as I get a good grasp of singing techniques.   Can I ask you whether you know any tutorials on youtube that could instruct me on vocal techniques used in Rock? I've heard that there are some little tricks that help people develop that angry/agressive voice.

    Hi guys,   In one of the threads I've posted that I have a lot of trouble in singing to instrumental/karaoke versions of songs.   I said that I will post a sample of my singing for you to tell me how can I improve. Instead of posting it there, although I got amazing support in that thread, I decided to do it here, maybe more people will be inclined to leave a tip or two .   I know that I am sometimes not in key, I will have to work on that. What also bothers me is the fact, that it sounds a little bit artificial. Without life.   Here's the recording (singing starts at around 0:26): https://soundcloud.com/pe-ter/wimr/s-8lUF9   I will be grateful for some tips.   Thank you!
