    I love the emotion and power in your voice. Some minor point: Something didn't seem quite right about the transition in the long beeeeeeeee at the beginning to my ears. But I may be mistaken. Really would love to be able to sing rock like that!

    Hi Gneetap, thanks for the reply man.
    If I ever can sing it in the original octave I will be quite glad, haha ... I got a very low voice naturally. I recorded the singing with a (unfortunately) cheap dynamic microphone connected to a Line6 UX1, which was USB-wired into my PC. I think it (the mic) may have too high impedance for this kind of interface ... Could this be the case? Anyhow, I only get a very soft signal out of it and have to 'software amplify' it afterwards. Any hints (other interface/mic amplifier?) on that?
    You are right, I sung so softly because it was even harder to hit the higher notes when singing louder. I am also not sure I really understand support, because when I try it (working those belly muscles to create some pressure from 'below') it sounds more like a annoyed person shouting at a Walmart clerk than singing, haha. How will I know when I do it the 'right way'?

    Thanks Robert, I will give the Quack a try ... I am definitely willing to put in the work. Because I have so many crazy song ideas (comedy rock/pop genre) and also made some backing tracks for them on my PC, but it all sounds horrible mostly because of the singing. I feel like I need to put them to life or they will make a plot to take over my brain and kill me at some point. So I sadly have no choice.
     Yes. Yes, they are. Just as windy as me ... Just kidding of course, they are true monsters of singing. In a good way. I will definitely compress a lot more and already did today surprisingly while singing some german songs. Just lightly in the belly region. My impression is it already sounds a lot better (not perfect of course, but a bliss compared to the example above). I also notice I need to work on some details as for example putting the volume on the right notes later.
    Um ... What?
    The speaking voice is not the singing voice, I will keep that in mind and maybe get a tatoo which says 'The speaking voice is not the singing voice' on my forehead. So I see it in the mirror every morning. Seem to forget about that a lot.
    Any suggestion on relatively easy to sing rock/pop songs for my personal practice? How about 'Halleluja'  by Leonard Cohen or 'The House of the Rising Sun'?
    Great video, I feel like my butt is getting professionally kicked in a good direction. Will definitely take a look at some other videos on youtube and very seriously consider buying your course, good sir.
