  1. I had big issues with Jaw tension. Personally the first thing i did to ease it was learn to shake my jaw up and down loosely with one hand holding the chin. It should move freely up and down, at first it resisted so i just kept doing it & soon it was easy. The next thing i did was the exact same thing, except singing a note. The higher i went the more it resisted again, so i kept doing that until it was loose again on any note/vowel (obviously you cant pronounce some consonants with your jaw going up and down) That helped me a lot.
  2. What would you guys describe this as? To me much of this is in falsetto & you can hear hes uncomfortable switching down to lower notes.
  3. Definately sounds like Falsetto, from you mentioning more air comes out when you try to get louder. Geran's exercises are good, just work on it & dont expect it to sound clear straight away. Falsetto is great to be able to use stylistically, the main drawback is you cant strengthen the notes to much as mentioned.
  4. Your tone is nice. Actually quite similar to Michael Buble. Just going to point out the things i notice on first listen. A few of the "feels" are to short, the 2nd one for example. Hold that out closer towards when the violins change, to much of a gap otherwise for me. You can shorten some of them as a stylistic choice, but pick and choose where it works. Also some of the words, "life", "feel/sea/free/tree/sleep", "day" etc try resonating those vowels a bit more in your mouth to clear them up a bit. Outside of that its very nice, good job.
  5. Im just a singer myself, know that song good tune. Just gonna give my own personal advice. To me it sounds pretty nasaly & you're to tense/need to work on support. Nasality happens i hear when you havent learn to lift the soft palate enough, so to much air resonates in the nose. Im sure there are exercises you could find to help with that. Outside of that id work on making sure your jaw is loose. Shake it up and down to make sure theres no resistance, see if you can still do this when you are singing on a higher vowel. It should feel free always. Also when you sing higher practice limiting the airflow. Do not try to make the notes clear at first, allow them to be like a fry sound & quieter aslong as they feel easy to produce. Your muscles have to learn the co-ordination properly before you can push to much air towards them. Allow it to sound crackly at first, keep it quieter. The more you practice with that form the stronger the notes will get.
  6. I see this has prompted some serious discussion lol I wasnt sure if theyre doing some kind of vocal fry taken up high, i can do that quite easily. I think what theyre actually doing is what this guy shows for chest grit just taken up higher: I can do that i think, it does feel a little sore though even though i feel it in the soft palate. Any thoughts?
  7. Hi new to the forum Been reading through many threads, only just started back at page 70 & im gradually reading backwards trying to learn as much as possible. Ive basically learnt mainly from SLS in the past. Anyway so as im reading i thought id start a thread specifically aimed at what im looking for as i go. These singers: 0:02, 0:16 etc The gritty/distortion effect he puts on his vocals when he goes high. 5:36, 5:47 & onwards. Again this guy uses it for the higher notes often from then onwards. Do you achieve it via learning to close off the vocal folds/holding your breath & then use your stomach muscles to "support/push" the air through gradually creating the rough sound. Am i on the right track? Any info/terms/threads you have towards clearing up this subject for me would be great thankyou !
