Nice, only at the first lines it sounds like "women" and not "young men", clear your words. You cant reach the notes at all? Cant you do rasp with head voice? Your voice seems to be worked, id expect you to hit at least with head voice. * If you can hit these notes with headvoice, work your way from there and avoid distortion at first, i overdid it in my initial "answer". If you cant its a matter of training... Also better wait for an answer from a more experienced person as my nick shows my knowledge ;)

Hard Rock - original song
Singingnewbie replied to Herman The Red's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
I loved the drums, especially the bass, and the guitars were also very nice. Good choice to get an sm57 instead of the sm58, it lacks a popfilter but has better performance. Also try to stop the air as far from the capsule as possible because it may still pick the sound of the popfilter. The vocals lack some power i think and if they were better recorded it would sound like a finished song. I would rise the pitch about 3-4 semitones and the beat by 10-15 bpm and make it "epic/power" style. Very nice composition! I couldnt figure the lyrics though. -
I saw "by Jugulator" and though i didnt know the song i thought, "Well you cant go wrong with a Jugulator cover"! Killer vocals once again! At 3:28 i was waiting for the explosion but it never came... :/ the only disappointment of your cover . Your clothes remind me of Klaus Meine and if your voice was thiner youd sound very much like him in high notes and without distortion. How long have you been singing?

Journey - "Who's Crying Now"
Singingnewbie replied to Stiletto's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
Very nice, there are few spots to be improved but very nice. Its good to nitpick your recordings, its the details that lead to perfection, gj and go on! -
About the pitch, you'd be surprised if you lower or even stop the music and you continue to sing, at least i was for myself. Singing along, especially in louder than yourself volume, gives you the "illusion" that you are on pitch, in fact the singer is, not you. Again this is from my personal experience/disapointment but i think it applies to everyone!

How to do clean vocal runs? :(
Singingnewbie replied to chocpowder's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
I am not the proper person to say that but, you have to take a step back and start from simpler things than going to runs immediately. You have pitch problems that i dont thing will be corrected from singing the notes faster, it will just be covered under the speed. Be correct on slower speed runs and gradually speed up. Be 100% correct before you move on. Thats my opinion though, wait for the more experienced to advice you. -
Pitch problems, you go out of pitch many times, super sharp i wouldnt say, i believe you have nice voice color from what i hear that if you work your voice enough, it will show. For now yes, it is dull and flat/lifeless but not as much as you think. Keep us updated!

Its an easy listening tune. Personally i dont like eastern sounding melodies but its very good! The chorus part is quite catchy. The lyrics could be improved maybe a bit, and also your accent, its not bad but it can get better. My personal opinion, thats a very nice song. Didnt watch the videoclip, but the song is really good! Kind of you to put the lyrics here.

I couldnt tell Claus Mein has a non english accent, maybe his type of voice helps to cover it (?) but i doubt. Why forlorne and funny, i'd say its the second most important thing after technique and somewhat they interact a bit, accent-technique. Its hard to make it consious but not forlorne. In my opinion every non native english speaking singers who take things more seriously should take a lot of care of their accent. You can have a very nice car, fast, safe, comdortable etc but without colour and few scratches here and there. You will do your job just fine for yourself but try to sell it... well might be not that good example but you get the point! :D

I will write the lyrics and comments next to them. Fight, babe i'll fight / the "i'll" try not to pronounce with a fat L and shorten its duration, generally shorten your L's duration Love / once or twice you say it "lov", i think "lav" is way better or at least "loav" if that makes sence. There are some other things too but they are subtle and hard to explain. Generally try to smooth your pronounciation by "cutting" the end of the words, or starting and ending them smoothly, try to fast pass the consonants and stay more on vowels. Have a more free accent, not a strict one. My poor opinion is this, hope it helps. :)

Passenger - Let Her Go (Rock Cover)
Singingnewbie replied to Overdrive's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
The tempo changes at first are somewhat strange but i think they added to the song, they do seem to be unintentional though. The 2/3rd time i heard it i understood the willingness. By flat we dont mean (i suppose berniemcpeak has the same opinion) Sharp ---> # Flat ---> b Its just a plain uncolored note. Your pitch was fine but you voice color/tone was flat. -
Passenger - Let Her Go (Rock Cover)
Singingnewbie replied to Overdrive's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
Id like it with a lighter style, not softer, or maybe one/two semitones higher. Your voice sounds a bit flat/uncolored on some parts. Also parts of pronounciation could improve. Generally very nice, and good thought to make it a rock cover. -
Titanium
Singingnewbie replied to KristoffMartin's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
Only thing i can say is i think you are a tiny bit off beat (late) at some parts. In generall no noticable flaws on your performance. Also i read you are self taught, thats a freaking good job! *By late i mean on the beat not on the parts of the video. -
Angels (cover by Kristoff Martin)
Singingnewbie replied to KristoffMartin's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
I think you sounded "uncolored" on few parts and maybe lacking a little bit of power. In total very good both vocally and your appearence. * Also i lost sound near 3:00. -
Passanger - Let Her Go Cover
Singingnewbie replied to RHan's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
What i noticed most is missing the rythm in many parts through the song, not THAT much but it is noticable and for me, takes away from the overall good performance. I dont know if singing with a metronome would be more helpful than harmful but find a way to stick a bit more into the rythm. Generally enjoyable cover.
