HoboJimMcFarbin Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Hi! I'm new to singing but am really enjoying it. I've have a sample up at www.reverbnation.com/hobojim. I feel like my voice is...well I don't know...feels like I have some technical issues. Thanks for any critiques. Hobo Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronws Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I can honestly say I have not heard that song done that way, before. I mean, I used to belt the song but this was quite different. Even so, there was some pitchiness. Stick with fewer vowels. The changing vowel sounds (dipthongs) are having an odd effect. Also, you are going sharp at the end of the chorus, giving it an A major chord feel, which, IMHO, does not quite fit with the intention of the song. I often tell people that they ought to do the song their way, and you certainly did. Just watch the pitch a little better. Also, spend more time with the vowels and less time with the consonants. It's one of those songs that really requires a sense of legato. As for the vowels, stick to simpler vowel sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
