It's a half step higher.

Totally forgot about this song! Awesome stuff yeah its falsetto, but you're connected on the verse. Falsetto on the chorus

8tor, for this being a hobby you sound good. The potential is amazing,and I don't want to sound condescending!

Robert can you check out my faithfully cover and tell me what you think? Your advice here is amazing!

Thanks, me too. It was really dark in the room and the sound system was quite loud. Hopefully I can do some more singing soon.

Thank you, I'm still trying to work on my upper passagio (A-Bb) I think doing certain songs a half step higher forces me to support better and find better vowels to use the higher I go.

Thanks!

You don't sound weak in my honest opinion. It sounds placed well and not pushed which counts for a lot especially on the "ee" vowel

I was recently on a carnival ship working in the show band and decided to sing faithfully in the Piano bar, it's up a half step than the original key. Whaddaya think? I just wanna be a Perry protege!

I also have a cover of me singing a song by Sia in her original key

I hope the links work!

I'm just on vocal rest for a few weeks to a month

Thank you very much. I vowed to myself that I'd never take my voice for granted like that again. So no more cruises.

On the cruise I had to sing "here I go again" by whitesnake and "pride" for 80s night, if my placement wanted to work it'd be fine but sometimes it wwouldn't be spot on placement - wise and it would bug me. Especially singing "in the Naaaaaaame of love, whaaaat more in the name of love" all on a high b. That was always a fear of cracking on the b, so instead I'd sing a high e flat to hook in before the high b" I guess all I'm trying to say is that it was very vocally fatiguing and it forced me to reevaluate my technique all the time, and that I CAN'T sing any and every genre of music

Thank you for the feedback. I made this video a few months before the cruise contract. Thanks for the 3 to 4 note idea it'd be nice to sit down and figure that out because I have a tendency for jumping octaves and singing at the extreme high end of my voice (thanks Steve Perry) I hated the cruise gig because it's not a gig for singers if you take singing seriously. 6 nights a week all songs in original key (stevie wonder, journey, al green, Michael Jackson etc) my voice became tired and my upper passagio became hit or miss so I would sing higher. For instance if the song had a lot of A4' I'd take the melody up a third and sing high C#s and D's just to stay out of my tired area. I think the higher/lighter your placement the better. But either way technique can only do so much after you've been working out the voice every single nnight.the job was like taking a Cadillac(your voice) and treating it like a jeep wrangler

Forgive the vocal masturbation

Just finished a cruise contract singing in a band for 6 months 6 nights out of the week. I'm still recovering... I WILL NEVER EVER DO THAT AGAIN lol but here's a clip of me singing when my voice was healthier a few months prior to the cruise, what do ya think? It's from the opera Porgy and Bess.
