Nice!

I just loved that Nina Simone song! I may be mistaken, but I think I'm finding a passion for jazz songs! Thanks GSoul82!

Nice man! I never heard this song before (I know the earlier Rob Zombie songs - Dragula, Living Dead Girl, and others), and if you told me it was Rob Zombie singing it I would have believed you. 

Amen brother! I'll keep my faith... in Rock n' Roll!!  

Hey man, sorry to hear about your health problems. Luckily, you seem to be recuperated. I thought you sounded good with a relatively light head/mix voice. Welcome back! Sorry I don't have any advices for you, only compliments... 

Hey Elvis, you got a really nice tone man! Yeah you were pitchy here and there. So what? Just re-do the song. I found the backing track very distracting. May I humbly suggest you to record the guitar yourself? I think it would sound so much better. Also when practicing, you could try it with the guitar, as this is a pretty lay back song. I think you would develop confidence and intimacy with the song, and perform it better. Cheers

Hi Drewb, welcome to the forum! I think you got a good voice, and your song is pretty interesting. As I'm an old guy, I'm into Classic/Hard Rock way more than the new styles of Rock. So, even though I have no idea of who those guys you mentioned are, I sort of liked your song, especially towards the end, when it gets more powerful. If you think your voice sounded muffled on the first word, you may have to get it out of the throat, placing the resonance more in your front teeth, and probably increase vocal compression, so it doesn't sound too airy. But in the end, it really depends on what kind of sound or effect you want to use. Cheers

​How about "Train Train" by Blackfoot? Is it considered Country music?! If not, I suggest "I can't make you love me" by Bonnie Raitt... yeah, I'm a Rocker  with a soft spot for romantic songs, suit me...  

Hi Nick, welcome to the forum! You got a nice voice man. You sounded very relaxed, and were probably letting too much air bleed through your vocal folds to create this effect. The problem with singing this way it dries up you folds quickly. So, you may need to use a bit more vocal compression to keep the air from escaping. Cheers

​Nice work Jens, your student is very talented, man!

​Hi MagicBus, I didn't get which higher notes are being belted instead of using head voice, in the cover by Kaige (the original poster), or in a different version  by another band that you mentioned? Cheers

​Hey Aravind, I may be mistaken, but I think the configuration/technique is called C.L.B. - Cry like a baby (or cry like a brat).  

Just cry your way through the chorus man! Don't be afraid. Cheers

​Hey GSoul, I could not even see the attached file. It shows an empty window in my screen. What am I doing wrong?

Well done Ronws! Awesome singing! I liked your tone, and it kind of reminded me of ZZ Top! I just think you need to tighten your timing in a couple of parts. Keep on Rocking!

Hi Aravind, I gave the first listen yesterday, but had no time to write anything afterwards. So, I just gave it another listen, and I got to say man, You have improved your singing so much on your own, that is really fun to watch all your progress in your journey. This is a really hard song from QUEEN, so congrats for facing this challenge. I really like your tone in this song, as you were able to dial down the nasality to a minimum. Still, in the choruses you still have a shouty quality. I don't think you need to change the key. Sexy Beast just gave you the Secret Formula to sing not only this song, but many others. You got to do the same configuration you did for "Too many bitter tears are raining down on me" and apply it to the choruses. I am probably wrong, but you might be using "the cry" to achieve that configuration. If you do that in the choruses you will not sound strained a bit. Great job man! Keep on Rocking!

​Yeah, I think I know what you mean. Support can be hard to get going if you didn't learn it properly. I won't try to teach you how to support, as I am no vocal teacher or an advanced vocal student. But if I may offer you a piece of advice, you should try to: 1) get lessons with a good coach, and there are several really good coaches here in the forum. And if you are into Rock and Hard Rock, is even better, because almost all of the coaches here are also fans of this style. 2) get a good singing program/method. Also here, there are a few very good choices, and Robert Lunte, the owner of this forum has written one of the most (if not the most) complete and comprehensive singing methods The Four Pillars of Singing. You should do one or the other, but if you can do both, your progress will be even faster. I'm telling you this as a friendly advice from someone who took a few lessons, but is working really hard by himself to learn and train the correct techniques to improve singing. I tell you this, it takes forever to do it by yourself, and very few people succeed, because you can fall into so many traps that you need someone with experience to guide you through this maze of information in a journey of self discovery (your singing voice). Cheers 

​Hi Wakawaka, does your interface have a gain or trim knob? You may have to adjust that so your signal doesn't have to be amplified too much in the software. But be careful not to overload the signal either, or else you will have the signal clipping. I think that for basic recordings any dynamic mic should be ok. Oh, also, make sure you don't have Phantom power on, in your interface. If your microphone is a dynamic it won't need it. Cheers

You sound good Blahblah! Congrats man!

Hey Wakawaka, I liked your timbre man. You know you are singing 1 octave below the original, right?! I also liked how you changed the melody just a bit in a few parts. May I ask you how you recorded this song? Because the volume of your voice seems to fluctuate throughout the song. I think that maybe because you sang this song so softly you didn't support accordingly, and that might be one of the reasons of the fluctuations in the volume, and sometimes on the pitch. So, by your description on the top, and the way you chose to sing this song, I assume you struggle to sing the high notes of the songs you like. It that is true, and you are passionate about singing, even with no professional intention, I think you should invest in learning and training vocal techniques. You already have a good voice, you just need to learn the right techniques and practice. Cheers

Crazy AWESOME Chris! Nice tone and emotion, and very very professional sound. Please keep them coming!

Great Job Aravind! I liked your timbre throughout the song and how you managed to pass a sense of fragility. However, for my taste, I would've liked even more if you sounded a bit heavier in the first part, when you sang really low. When you get to the medium/high pitches you were perfect! Congrats man, you are doing well! Keep rocking!

Hi Olem, IMO you sounded more like Axl than Bryan Johnson. But I had a hard time listening because the backing track was way louder than your voice, and maybe some feedback/echo on your voice. Also, the video and audio seemed to be a bit out of sync. I liked it though.

Great cover! I liked your tone, but I have to agree with some of the guys. If you want to sound soul/RnB you need a different backing track, and if you want to sound rock, you need to add more edge and atitude. Very nice singing though!

I liked it MDEW! Although it still needs some polishing, the song and your timbre are a good match ,and you sounded relaxed. I have to ask if the guitar chords were all right, because sometimes it sounded as if the chord need to be something else. It was just a sensation, I don't know the chord progression for this song. 

Holly Sheetzz! Great job Felipe! You made it your own my friend. But for my taste, the choruses and the bridge were the best parts hands down, where you really shone, singing a bit lighter and more agile than in the verses, where you sounded heavier than in the rest of the song. Still, I liked very much. Keep them coming, please.
