Hi Pekka,

Thank you very much for your words of encouragement! 

Cheers!

Chris, very good indeed!!!

Awesome!

I tell you something, maybe you should replace him as he is struggling with his voice now.

Find a way to send this to the band! I wish you all the best!

Cheers!

Hi everyone,

This is my first mixed track created entirely by me (that's why it sucks...he he he ) using my new recording gear. 

I am using Ableton software but was not able to even find "Gate" he he he...ouch!

Anyway, let me know what you think. 

Thanks

Hi SB,

Thank you for your feedback.

I will bring this up to my coach and at the same time will try to pay more attention to Steve's vowels.

Many thanks!

Hi Nick,

Thank you for your feedback. 

Cheers!

Hi Neko,

Yes, tell me about it... but I do like the Steve Perry's style of singing... powerful and soulful. I like his tone. I don't want to sing like him (impossible and not good... poor Filipino having to deal with the comparisons...) Anyway, i like the style and want to develop my singing voice on the same lines.

You are completely right. Not knowing yet my voice, makes me work harder than I need, causing a countereffect and making my voice crack on high notes. I am working on controlling the flow and volume so I get that fixed... ;o) Placement and volume must be mastered yet by me... I will get there eventually.

Thank you for advice and everybody else for the supporting words!

Take care

PS: Thanks Pekka!

Sorry, guys, I won't participate this month. Unfortunately, this is not my style. 

I will wait for next month.

Good luck to you guys!

Take care

Rock!

Hi Gneetapp,

Thank you so much for your feedback! I will definitely continue practicing to make it consistent!

Take care!

Hi guys,

Well, my day work is not letting me work on my singing skills...he he he...

Let me know if you think I am going on the right direction with this attempt...

Some of the highs are not good, too much air and pressure, I believe... well, nothing like being an amateur... ;o)

Many thanks!!!

Hi MDEW,

Thank you so much for your compliment! It is very raw as I am just using my iPhone to record...

Anyway, I am thinking about creating an Acapella version with a slight higher tone so I can do a proper falsetto. I felt a bit constrained and my low register is not good. I felt like I was all over the place...up and down... he he he...

I will post here if I manage to create a better version.

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

This is my humble attempt.

Hi everyone,

Please considered this as my humble attempt to the challenge:

Many thanks!

Hi everyone,

I really appreciated all the feedback and comments! I will work hard on all the tips you suggested.

I will pass this along to my singing coach and we will look at them. Some of the points has already been raised by my coach, but singing correctly is very hard.... ;o)

Why have a classified as a hobby? Well, I have nothing... just my undeveloped voice, 1/2 hour weekly singing classes and lots of self-teaching, self training and desired to be my best!

Believe me, if I could, I would stop my day job right now and move on to singing for the rest of my days! Unfortunately, it might be too late for me to take it to a professional approach...the music industry is so saturated with so many good singers that it would be hard for me to get further. So, let's leave it as a hobby so I don't get frustrated... but, hey, this is just a strategy as I won't stop or give up... 

The recital gave me so much strength and confidence and with the amazing comments you provided here (no sugar coating...which is good) I must go on!!! and I will!

I love the 80's and the powerhouse voices of that era. Steve Perry is the one that captivates me the most.

My goal is to record a single and put it on iTunes... who knows radio (big dream)... but that's my goal! I just need to write the song...lol!

Thank you so much for this amazing evaluation and validation!
