Bono Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Great riffs and high notes!!! maybe I should delete my version now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexy Beast Posted February 20, 2015 Author Share Posted February 20, 2015 Of course not! But yeah this is not an easy song... I don't sing ballads much because I think they're hard as f$ck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillerKu Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 It's good. It's a little frantic, but with the right backing, maybe a bit more up beat than the original it'd work. Bono has the wink though, don't you go deleting that one. Stevie Wonder is my favorite of the forum's beloved high pitched singers. mainly because he is a fantastic songwriter and musician but I do like his voice too. I tend to prefer the way soul singers hit high notes than the heavy metal way per tastes, so most likely I'll be singing more like Stevie if and when I increase my range. . I suspect I'm a bit heavier of a voice type than you two, but I can do a few. I was working on You and I awhile back, but this song sounds interesting as it's a similar kind of ballad.

Gsoul82 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Everytime I listen to one of Beast's recordings, I want to sing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillerKu Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Everytime I listen to one of Beast's recordings, I want to sing And you should. You got cool timbre. I wonder if there Is there an agreed upon 'good enough' cheap USB mic we could just have the go to thing for you guys? I have a condensor mic so I have no need for it, but I bet there is probably some 'good enough' mic for folks who aren't ready to splurge on pro gear yet. Edit: http://www.quepublishing.com/articles/article.aspx?p=2246801 Looks like entry level is about 50 dollars for something 'maybe good enough.' I can see why people hold onto their laptop mics a bit longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see why people hold onto their laptop mics a bit longer. I just haven't bought a mic yet because I didn't think I had a good enough voice for that yet. Rob recommended me something that's supposedly the best USB mic there is, and it's in the $100-$200 range. I'm willing to go for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronws Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I liked it, as is. I used to think the cartoon sound of my voice was due to cheap or small mics. Getting better mics proved that no, I have a cartoon voice. Kind of like the comedy skit where a guy drives up to the ordering board at a drive-through restaurant and the person sounds garbled and distorted through that and you think it's just a worn out speaker in the board. You get to the window and meet the guy and he sounds that way, in person. That's me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
