    So i had a flash in my head that i want to cover Dream On so i randomly took my cellphone and recorded a minute of me singing the song.   Just wanted your opinion guys about how this sounds, i tried to add a bit grit to it which i dont ussualy do.   Tell me what you think and any tips maybe for me to improve before it goes into full version <3   Thanks all!!!!     https://app.box.com/s/8gzeld1eefmxjnvv174vp4t4qx8fwgdt   P.S. Lyrics are wrong in some places. I didnt hear that song for a while and it hit me suddenly so i didnt really check it ;P   P.S. Delay and Reverb used just so it doesent sound so bland ;P (and to cover possible mistakes xD)

        Actually i already tested Rode NT-Usb on my laptop and there is 1-3ms latency even on 512 buffer size and thats actually negligable. Its very well made.

    Thanks Robert! I agree there is alot more to work on.   Not to get deffensive but i can ussualy follow melody and rhythm very well but because i am using a "poor way" of recording i have some limitations. I cant really hear myself if im having my headphones on so i remove them slightly, and then i cant hear the bed track, so i kinda fall late or early.    My dad actually agreed to buy me Rode NT-Usb so if it gets delivered by the end of the challenge ill try recording with it.   Thanks again for your input i REALLY appreciate it   Edit: and i was doing alot of "baby babe's" so i guess that dampening became almost unintentional

    Ill try to record new one. This one is ok but some of the errors were not really neccesary. :/

    I truly want to see a banjo playing true texan in todays music. I know they exist but i want to hear it more exposed. Good music is hard to come by these days if your not actively looking. Im getting tired of ke$has and nicki minaj Style song.

    You say Hillbilly with kind of a negative conotation. I hear hillbilly and read it as independent culture with defining characteristics and staying true to the way they are raised. Nothing wrong with that. Furthermore i aplaud you for staying true to who you are. :)

    Those notes are preety tasty. Tasty as hell. And the whole thing gives me a wierd emotion inside me, which is great. I can hear this as a background music to some sad part of the movie.

    Grimey as hell! Love it!

      Bro i was saving from June, 2014 until a month ago. I am working and going to college but i live with my fiancee and it is hard. I work 150h a month for 300$, and i gotta eat something. so it was hard, but i managed and i didnt regret it.

    Bro this is better. Even alot better. Im preety sure with the right vocal coach or a programm you will have amazing results. Im begginer myself so it wouldnt be fair to give you technical advice. Im sure alot of people will help you around here. Just be persistent. If i really love singing you will make it.

    Dont get hung up on baritones tenors and basses. Fach doesent mean anything in pop music or should i say contemporary. we have a thread about bari's basses singing high here on forum with 200+ posts. take a read.   Now i think you are speak-singing. you need to really get into singing mode. its hard for me to explain as im a begginer also. But try giving it more strenght like ron said and dont be afraid of "sucking". i thnk you are trying to much to not sound bad or embarassing, and then you end up almost reciting the lyrics.   I can hear that you have an ear for pitch. it wasnt perfect but you hear the melody and you are trying to follow it, and you DO, but its more of a "lyrical recitation" (if thats a thing) than singing.   Try to loose up and really let it go and record again.
  12. Elvis
    The only thing missing is grit and a bit clearer pitch and your done..you have done really good. I like it. Also take note that if geoff tate sang this it would be very mellow and like aa choir boy

    MDEW im a beginner so i cant tell you really how to improve it but i can tell you that i really liked your approach to this song. (also im a guitar player so guitar is inviting for me ;P)   I like this song even more with your apporoach. Im not a fan of this pop-ballad style songs or generally "modern pop music" (with the exception of Ed Sheeran) so this "folksy country" style is preety awesome to hear as the lyrics are really not bad in this song and i really like it.   I like the style of your singing its really easy on the ears and it doesent feel like a chore to listen to it

        Its actually my idea to do this contest but we wont nitpick hehe   Yea it means alot when some really good singers and quite knowledgable say something is good, even if its just out of courtesy
  15. Elvis
      Thanks so much Martin and MDEW...   To be honest these kind of replies makes me train harder and not loose my will to learn to sing...   I myself realise this is far from perfect and im really just a begginer but i really have alot of will to learn..hopefully in time ill get better
  16. Elvis
    Thanks MDEW...i might scrap this for now yea and record proper one..at least without any breaks and chirps   Thanks for kind words
  17. Elvis
    Hey guys! This is my entry for All of me contest.   I figured id upload it here too just so i get some feedback from you guys!   My falsetto sux hard and i cracked at 1 place but overall im preety happy with it!   Tell me what you think   https://app.box.com/s/ozr07i6py6n8e0oai0jzcs56vqss3wr0   Edit: ill record another one so consider this one as practice
  18. Elvis
        Awesome response Maestro!   Btw i actually like the vowel mods here...they are kinda groovy ;P
  19. Elvis
    Yea i just wanted to know...btw if u see comments down on rooster and child in time cover you will see that i love them...i really like Roberts take on those songs. Really bluesy interpretation that i really dig
  20. Elvis
    Sry to knick the thread but i just wanted to ask Robert a question. Rob do you have to modify vowels that much. Seems to me that Layne doesent modify as much as you in this cover. Just wondering if thats stylistic thing or actual necessity
  21. Elvis
    And its on and on and on ita heaven and hell...ahhh weel
  22. Elvis
    ABSOLUTELY  NOT. You will train your aural skills to perceive pitch better and you will perform. Didnt i just tell you aural skills are easier to train than vocal technique. I play guitar for 7 years now and after only 6 months of guitar playing i got to a point where i hear almost every pitch imperfection when i sing or others. Don't give up bro. I beg you don't. Google the term "learn to sing on pitch" or something like that and start working. Seriously don't keep your talent to yourself, share the joy.
  23. Elvis
    Hmm i cant actually hear any of my voice here!?? hehe just kidding   On a more serious note i really like the way you sing. Its calm and yet powerfull when it needs to be. Voice is so soothing and hopefilling. And i like the phrasing and dynamics.   Very well done. IMHO
  24. Elvis
    Is this even possible!!?? The tumbre and range is INCREDIBLE. But pitch really does lack alot But if u ask me pitch can be improved more easily that the vocal color and range So bro i ENVY you.
  25. Elvis
    Awesome cover bro!!!   Also to change nick go to My Setting in the Menu on the top right of the page than select display name in my settings
