Validar Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Your pitch and timing were off in a few spots, but I must say, your tone is f'n stellar. A rock voice for sure, and a soulful interpretation of the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronws Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I liked it, Dark. You sounded open and strong on this one. I could hear you doing this at the Cotton Bowl (open air concrete football stadium.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem. It's a challenging song for just about anyone. You have that tone and just the right grasp on dynamics to really deliver this song the way it should be delivered. haha, don't be jealous of the hair. It's hell to deal with in Florida weather. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicogratouille Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Hi Darkclaw, I like your tone on phrases like "Sneaking around your door", "telling me i gotta have" and most of the lower phrases... However, you go into Brian Johnson mode quite a bit! I can definitely hear you switch between those two voices. I assume that you feel more comfortable singing in your higher range in a Brian Johnson kind of way. Am I right? Now, if you could keep your voice "in line" throughout the song that would be cool! Anyway, hope it makes sense Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkclaw3000 Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 rowns - wow that will be a dream come true man! thx! validar - thx dude! tried my best! florida weather eh, i can't even keep long hair here due to freakin govt service.. nick - i totally understood bro! yes i agree i liked my tone better on those phrases u mention, and YES its much easier to sing in brian johnson mode when higher up. "in line" meanin the cleaner tone or Brian tone? i would really love to sing in the clean tone thruout the whole song but i just cant get it right. im not sure its my technique or my vocals is broken! if u listen on 2.56 part of the song, u can hear me flipped between those two tones. its because of this that im constantly unhappy about my singing!! i donno if i should be happy or not actually.. confusing me very much!

Nicogratouille Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 What I mean is keep your own tone. Your 'Brian Johnson' tone is fabricated, it's kind of your shortcut for the high notes. Learn to sing those same notes in your own voice might be much harder, but it's so much more rewarding There's nothing wrong with your voice. The song is very challenging to sing. Have you considered voice lessons? Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkclaw3000 Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 u got me right in the head! yup its kinda of a shortcut, easy way out. it truly is much harder to sing in my own tone. yup i'm takin vocal lessons actually! with this dude Eli Prinsen. http://www.hybridvocaltechnique.webs.com/ damn good singer n his teachings fits me the most. check him out!

Nicogratouille Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 All right, he should be able to help you with that. Good luck! Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felipe Carvalho Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Man, its acceptable live I think (if you can sustain that of course), but really not good yet. The high parts all sound cartoonish, as nico pointed, altering your voice to do it, not necessary. Good to know that you are getting instruction, keep the songs comming :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkclaw3000 Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 thx felipe! alrite i will try do a clean one n upload again!!! really appreciate all the feedback u guys are giving! thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christibbs Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Two words bro. (*auto edit*) yeah. It reminded me of good covers you hear in bars. I used to draw superheros for the bands at the bar I bussed at. I was 18 and a hairy dude. So they thought it was weird. It was. Good singing though man.
