Great, remember the crowd is by your side, its not there to judge you, they wanna have fun like you do. Even if you mess up nobody will remember the mistake, they will remember the general appearence, "The guy and the girl that sung really nice" they wont add "yes, and made a mistake in that song and one in the the other"... Remember that everybody messes up, even the greatest! Also i thnik its better to mess up and be more expressive and active on stage than be like a brick that sings spot on every note, i got a cd for that!

Walking is different from singing because it is the way humans are built and unless you have a condition anyone will walk either taught or not. Its not a skill with the meaning of a skill as singing is, driving, drawing etc... I guess nobody was told "Hey your walking is awful please stop walking..." or "Wow your walking is so nice, please walk some more so i can enjoy"!   Generally i agree with what you advised him ron but we all have gone through these steps, exept the lucky ones. Jameel just make a program about singing everyday or when you can and be constent to it, no matter what. Everything will come with time.   Killer thats such a pity, you didnt start at young age and started later, same i wanted to play piano when i was same age but for family reasons i did when i was near 20... Be happy with what you got and try to make it better! Peace

Your voice has nice characteristics, everyone who is at a beginer level doesnt like his voice cause isnt used to it and because well... its his! Dont think about it, just practice and over time you will see results. Darius very nice post.

I listened to both, this is a lot better and can be a lot better if you correct some easy things like the style you sing. For the next thing i say i am not quite sure but thats what i would do, try to avoid too much effects and show offs and sing right at the note like stacato, in a simple way, dont slide, you can slide as much you want later   There are so many good free videos out there that i dont believe you or anyone needs a voice training program BUT you have to filter out the information and that will take more time than lessons or a program.   Most usefull advice is what GSoul82 said, sing, sing, sing! Listen, immitate, record, get feedback, its free and will get you a long way!

Agree with what Gneetap said and i think i hear high larynx at 18" and dampened larynx on the next few notes. Try to make a released natural sound and stabilise the vibrato on the held note. Also going thinner isnt a shame, it also adds to the atmosphere of the song instead full voice, chest-dragging, high-low larynx and etc. The simpler the better. Oh and by the way, very nice singing!

Really good singing but i think it will be even better if you work on dynamics.

Is it a bit trebly? Nice vocals though i think it sounded somewhat thin, maybe its the eq (?)

First of all this isnt an easy song to sing, when i first heard it i was like, pff, not high notes no belting, everythings gonna be fine... not. Your voice is almost alone with the acompany of atmospheric guitar/strings and you have to perform with good tone, pitch, vibrato and whatever. Its harder than belting through the whole chorus and stuff like this.   I told you this prologue because my critique is gonna be a bit harsh but if you are new to singing, its an ok cover. Tone is nasaly, you sound strained on many places, you are missing the beat a lot, your pitch isnt stable but good thing is your vibrato, maybe because i have trouble getting vibrato myself but i liked it.   Watch some videos, take some lessons and most importantly train a lot and you'll be able to sing this at least decently pretty fast!

I like a lot your tone and not only, i could say i'm jealous... but i wont Exellent job Fellipe!

Its a program by Eric Arceaneux (i hope i spelled that corectly), A(rceaneux)Aproach.

Great! But i now i am confused more with the lyrics , kidding. Hope to hear more from you.

I have minor hearing issues and i cant hear trebles perfectly and some of the mids, keep that in mind as i tell you this sounds to me bass-heavy. Also i'd say the vocals should be about 5-10% louder, at the start when instruments play low its better but later its somewhat covered. Nice instrumentals and vocal melody, i missed lots of the lyrics but thats normal for me and unnecessary for my critique.   Personally i would change few things like keeping the vowels at the end of the words a bit longer when possible. Also i can imagine it as a metal song with more projected aggressive guitars and vocals. Anyway, very good job, i liked the whole atmosphere of the song.

Truth is i rarely say good things when making a critique unless i understand someone cant handle it, so i still dont say good things but instead i rephrase them properly! I admit i am generally rude sometimes...   You have a very nice built up voice and only need to work on details to polish it

Very nice and good choice going for the minimalistic and not overloading it with runs and stuff.

I didn't even click the link cause i know i don't need to... you can't imagine what you can achieve through training, persistence and patience, at least I couldn't. I may sound im bragging but i'm not ashamed to say that at first i didn't believe i could sing to the level that i am now, not that i sing good but i sing A LOT better than when i started. The best thing is i know i can and i will sing better than i am now and so you will, if you want to.
