Nightmares By The Sea - Jeff Buckley

Hi

Here's my attempt at a pretty easy fun song. Lots of difficulty with breathing and accidental yodels. Feedback would be great. Thanks

I don't think you could have picked a more difficult song to sing. The lyric turnaround ends on a half-tone higher than the first line. That, alone, is a technical accomplishment. This isn't just alternative or post-modern industrial, this is jazz singing. I couldn't hear any yodels. Or any problem with breathing. Maybe you felt those things but I didn''t hear them.

Interesting, I never really thought of the vocal melody that way. Thanks for the feedback!

I forgot to mention this was really well done, in addition to a difficult melody line to sing.

I think it sounds really good. Just keep on practicing and connecting with your breath. At points it seems that your voice is not connected - I think with proper breathing this will take care of itself.
