TMV World Legacy Member Musikman7002 Posted June 22, 2015 TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted June 22, 2015 Here is one of my favorite Meatloaf songs. This is an older recording and I have better equipment now and I think I can probably do it better justice now but time is always my worst enemy so here it is.https://app.box.com/s/3tul3cb4k8ndkjyudts0l00u2jyon906The original Composition: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Robert Lunte Posted June 28, 2015 Administrator Share Posted June 28, 2015 Wow, someone had the gonads to cover this? Very impressive before I even listen to it... I noticed that you step up and sing hard ones Musickman7002... nice work brother... are you training your voice? What is your story...?Your "Meatloaf"...1)... It does have a "meatloaf" sound color to it... cool. Were you trying sound like Meatloaf or does your voice kind of sound like him? 2). Overall, it sounds pretty good... nice work!!! Here are some picky details...1:47 - 2:20 : I like the way you choose to articulate this hook line... it shows that you have a sense for the drama and theater of Meatloaf... some songs in rock and metal are more theatery then others... Meatloaf for sure is one of those singers that cross pollinates between Metal and Theater... when you find yourself singing something "theatery" like this... it helps to articulate the consonants more "on point"... or I like to say more "persnickety"... it takes an experienced singer and certain level of sensitivity to the art to realize this and pick up on it... nice work my friend.3). 3:39 - 3:55 : GREAT! I frankly have no critique for this... it sounds great... Excellent execution of a "pedaling" of an A4 belt... not easy! You have to have a lot of adductor strength to sustain that and pull it off... and articulate through it. It shows that you have been singing a lot... typically that kind of belt strength is not possible without really doing it a lot... GREAT SUBMISSION!I'm going to feature it!

TMV World Legacy Member Musikman7002 Posted June 28, 2015 Author TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted June 28, 2015 Thanks for the kind words Robert. I actually spoke with you on the phone last Friday as I am interested in your course. I was a student of Al Koehn in Tampa, Florida who was also a student of Maestro Kyle so some of what I do is probably based on certain techniques you are teaching as well. I do feel you could help me go further with some of your own innovations and refinements that take voice into the 21st century. I was indeed trying to capture some of the "Meatloaf" quality on this track. When I cover a tune I usually do like to try to channel some of the core of how the song was delivered without hopefully sacrificing my own voice. I do also enjoy Theatrical music so I probably do tend to go there, in fact it is harder for me to sing more monotone type singers or "flatter" types of singers. I appreciate the thumbs up on the A4 belt as it is indeed NOT easy lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMV World Legacy Member ronws Posted June 29, 2015 TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted June 29, 2015 Excellent musikman. That was a delight. Not only do you sound like him, but you sing with the same passion. One of the things I have always admired about Meatloaf. It is all in the voice. Not really any pyro or props. Thanks for linking in the video, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMV World Legacy Member Musikman7002 Posted June 29, 2015 Author TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted June 29, 2015 Wow, I appreciate you mentioning passion. I really feel it is so important to always sing with passion no matter your range or style of music. When I sing I always want people to believe that I am singing from the first person. As if this was MY story. I believe Robert Lunte added the video so I thank him for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
