jonpall Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Hi, this is my latest take on Journey's "Don't stop believing": http://www.box.net/shared/jh2dkbt6ci It's the best I can do at the moment. Not perfect, I know, but I feel I'm improving slowly but surely. Comments would be kewl. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonpall Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 I don't know if anyone hears any difference between this and some of my previous takes on this song (if you even remember them), but I feel that I've managed to balance the vocal weight this time around. In other words, I think I'm less shouty than I was before with this song, but I still have some cord compression going on so that it's not too thin sounding. Perhaps some of you might spot any obvious technical flaws here, or just simply like it. Ronws in 10, 9, 8, ... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
analog Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 I consider myself an expert on Perry's vocals(from an academic NOT emulative stand point) and you are singing with the same set-up that Steve does. Congrat-u-f'n-lations brother :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronws Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 :D I feel the need for more .... cowbell. To me, this sounds like your voice, not anyone else's. And I like the way you phrased it, too. So that it's not just a carbon copy, as it were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantomsightandsound Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Your vocal sounds great on this song. I like the weight. Tuning was good throughout too. Were you able to accomplish this in one take or did you extract the best from several tries? No matter. Congratulations! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gno Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 jonpall - sorry I missed this the first time around. This sounds really good. You do sound more comfortable now, although I thought your previous takes were all really good too. I particularly liked how you nailed the B4 at 1:49. One thing I noticed was at 1:13 "Perfume", "fume" needs to be more like "Fee-you-m". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olem Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 You are a absolutely right Jon, in this clip you are balancing the vocal weight a little bit better than before, it´s not sounding as choked as before though you were just a little bit choked. Great job, Jon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
