“The pursue of perfection can work against me”
An advice I will carry throughout my life!
When you start out, you'll hate your voice. After mixing and mastering my own music for years, I now don't hear my voice any more. What I mean is that it sounds just as detached as hearing someone else's voice. Only when you reach this stage can you objectively judge your skill and style.
Thanks for this. I bought my music equipment about two years ago and tried to record myself and I lost faith in myself because of how I sounded. Not knowing that the average the artist has an audio engineer that equalises their voice and adds reverb to it and so many other things. I am now going back to the basics FL studio and learning first the techniques on how to record your voice and then how to mix and master it. I know I can sing and I know I have potential I’m just glad it’s not only me who has felt like their voice sounds disgusting recorded lmao. Gives me hope
@@itskeke-wk8ng everyone thinks their own voice is the worst shit in existence including myself and I’m glad you’re getting over it and realizing your potential
I've recorded So Many Verses in My Life but never tried approaching from a producer and audio engineer standpoint and I swear I've given Up so Many times trying to Learn. This was helpful
Thank you for sharing this
I used to be a promoter for an artist. One day we thought it wud be funny to do a song about Atlanta Bread Company lol and my vocals was horrible. It took me 6 years to get confidents to record. And EVERYONE now says I have the voice for it. KEEP GOIN DONT STOP. I WAISTED 6 years for nothing. Keep at it. I promise. Reputation is the father of learning. …….ATM Nikko.
For those of us that don't think highly of our vocal abilities this is a godsend. It has inspired me. Thank you for this video.
So glad!
i am a stroke victim with significant vocal damage recoording a spoken word
EP in my home studio. WOW! My world has been rockeed!
I feel like this guy just saved me centuries of wasted time haha, thanks!
You're so welcome!
This man is a vocal philosopher. Approach and mindset are everything. Thank you everyone for this video.
Every vocal is a guitar solo. Every guitar solo is a vocal, and both are phrasing. I am working on finding the honesty in the phrasing, which takes...not thinking about it. You have to find yourself in the words, and alter the words to find yourself. You have to mean what you are saying, and if you can't change the words, then you have to find what they mean to you. If you don't mean it, it won't come out right. This is a great video - very inspiring and instructive.
Dude, I was just walking into my vocal booth to track when your notification hit. This definitely helps. Thanks!
same, exactly what i needed this morning
Nice!
How was the vocal session? ;)
@@MixChecks I got a pretty solid comp out of it that I think I'll move forward with 😁
The universe said hold on a second, watch this
As someone who’s been recording for decades I’d say all his advice is GOLDEN. Great video!
OMG I am CALLED OUT by the “I bet I can do better with one more take” mindset... whooo... I guess I know what bad habits I’ll be working on to fix now! 😱😅🤣
This is really so good! As a voice teacher myself, I’m always making my students speak through their lyrics - getting that emotional connection with the text (and subtext) is absolutely critical! We sing to communicate first and foremost, right??? 💖🎶💖

LOVE Chris's coaching. So talented, holy crap.
4:09 Somewhere, William Shatner is thinking, "they finally understand what I was trying to do."
haha
I thought exactly that!!!
lmao well done
I agree with a lot you said… I think a lot of times we forget that we can actually do anything if it’s done with enough confidence… if you make a “mistake” with enough confidence it could actually be better than the thing you initially planned to do
Thank you Graham for sharing. It reinforces what I learned through the years of singing and eliminating fear of it.
I must say that this vid hit me with your best shot as far as being a vocalist and going through all you mention. The mind set is paramount. I did and still do perform looking for perfection as you stated although not quite like I used to as I am older now and have the attitude, "I sing for myself and hope you like it". Self confidence is the key and it can be hard to gain. A guitar player friend once told me, "Sing like you are telling a story".
Brilliant. Thank you for this. I’ve always struggled with trying to sing perfectly and accurately rather than emotionally/conversationally but never really figured out HOW to connect to the latter? This makes it so much more approachable!
WOW! I never thought of approaching a recording as a conversation before.Brilliant! The whole part about not seeking perfection, also superb. Everything here was golden!! I think you just changed my life in less than 15 minutes. Thanks so much!
These are very very very very valuable tips. Thanks Chris!! I appreciate it and gonna use it at my recordings
This is an amazing lesson - very helpful and full of insight!! - you can tell he has lots of wisdom in the music game...learned alot and helped so much - keep it up bro
This was my first introduction to Chris Liepe. I was digging a trench for a long brick walkway in the dead of winter. It was fucking freezing and hard work but I was so enthralled by the audio. Blew my mind. I listened to his videos on loop for a month while moving several tons of material, soaking up all the knowledge I could and clarifying and confirming what I learned intuitively through the years.
I'm indebted to this guy. He helped me build a metaphorical foundation while I was literally digging and laying a walkway fountain one brick at a time.
Very good! The song is THE STORY YOU ARE TELLING. It must have emotion and heart that can be felt by others.
YES
Oh thanks for this, will definitely give it a try. No wonder why I sound better in Karaoke living room when just singing comfortably & having fun than in recording booth. There’s so much intimidation going on once I face a pop filter, distance to mic, thinking all about precision, and how to behave properly because I’m in my sacred studio setup. I never thought about those 3 points Chris mentioned. Thanks!
Freakin' awesome! Works not only for voice, I think, but instrument as well. Fantastic thought process.
Finally! Someone who gets to the living heart of production.
Thanks a gazillion.
Nice video and clever words! I actually discovered this myself in some way, but nice to see this video taking it even further! Expression is everything..
Perfect, perfect, perfect....I have been a victim of trying to sing perfectly. This guy is the best Graham... I will practice what I've learnt here. Thank you so much
Thank you so much 😢 a right video at a right moment. This is what i'm strugling. Awesome prespective.
The best vocal technique advise I've seen on youtube!!!! Well explained. My fellow Filipinos usually focus on hitting perfect notes of the original singer.
Amazing approach, Chris! Graham, thanks for introducing him to us.
Legend! Cheers Chris, always inspiring 👍🇮🇪🇮🇪
He is so emotional while singing
The best
Conversational approach, absolutely agree with it. Great video thanks!
thank you so much for this video. You named every feeling I always had in my head.. When you wanna be perfect, or try to perform in front of people but you are like blocked or something. because you are scared of judgements of not being perfect. Also being perfect when you are trying to record something. Thank you so much for your tips. Great video!!
You're so very welcome!
That story about piano recitals hit home. Exactly the same experience. And I also have such a weird disconnect with recording, as soon as headphones are on I’m boring although I’m just fine singing in someone’s living room. I’ll definitely take this advice
You just answered a question that I've been looking for.. Now I have a better mindset when going into recording.
This is amazing advice. It took me a long time to realize this one.
So glad you got something out of it!
Embrace your imperfections.
Beautiful!

Fantastic and realistic keys you explained in this video are very clear to me as I have been through them..thanks a lot
wow, Amazing how you simplify it Thank you.
I feel so called out right now.... Thank you
Thanks Chris. I needed this today. Great advice!
Excellent tips. I will try that conversational approach next time in the booth. For me personally I have found the best continuity in a vocal performance is to sing the song all the way through while feeling emotionally charged to do so and ignoring any mistakes along the way. Sometimes I will do multiple takes and sometimes I only do one.
GOOD!
Oh boy, did I ever need to watch this video! This is fantastic advice! I live my life - both musically and just in general - in a perfectionism loop. I really struggle with it, and I've allowed it to take hold so much that it's killed my creativity and workflow. I always talk a big game and have great plans - I just never get anything done because my efforts never seem good enough. I am a singer (as well as a songwriter/pianist) myself, and I've always commented that one of the things I really like about other vocalists that I consider "cream of the crop" is that it feels like they sing "to" you and not "at" you. I know enough about the concept of conversational singing to recognize when I hear and admire it in other singers, and I know it's a really great trait to have, but I've never quite absorbed that bit of advice myself or even really ever heard it explained in a video. I bookmarked this one to come back to again and again, as I think it's something that may really help me moving forward. Thank you, Graham, and thank you, Chris, for putting together such a great video!
Really cool that you guys collaborate this often! 👍💪 Keep it up!
Realising how important mindset is. Thanks a lot
Holy hell. Number 1 is so me. I’m so caught up trying to sing properly that I’ve lost my connection with the song
This really is a helpful one! So many things affect the tuning for voices. Amazing tips. :)
Chris is an absolute legend
Exactly what I use to face a lot before while my vocal recording sessions. It is your feelings that makes you think you sound better while casual rehearsals but sound not up to the mark while actual recording. I think yes, we need stop thinking about theories, expectations, nervousness etc. Just like we forget while bathroom-singing & need to be casual & emotionally connected while recording, that's the most important aspect. Because a little technically imperfect track with full of emotions will always sound better than a technically perfect emotionless track.
Moreover we don't have to worry these days about vocal takes because of these DAW softwares, we can always have another take of a section if it is required, something which was not common on old days. Singers had to sang in a single take.
Great words of Vocal Wisdom....Well said Sir.
You´re the best. Thank you.
He's an amazing teacher
Thanks!
I even tried making 16 takes just to achieve perfection and it was disappointing, I learned something from this video, thank you so much for the advise.. :)
Woow, let me go practice already. Thanks for this🙏🏾🙏🏾
WOW! This is very powerful information! I like to sing to myself, sort of like a way to get rid of pent-up energy, but I don’t record myself (it’s more of a secret hobby). I tried the technique of just reading the words, as if I’m having a conversation with someone; I did the song “I Dreamed a Dream” (Les Miserables, Fantine). I think I felt more of Fantine’s emotional stress doing this exercise, than I have actually singing this song. This has really helped me, a lot, Thank You.
Thanks, I was sucking the life out of a song I've been recording for months now. Finally got to the last part of laying down takes which is lead and background vocals. Started using Melodyne for Studio One and seeing how imperfect my vocals are and I kind of got in a rut trying to record the perfect vocal take. Needed to hear this.
How much do you pay for melodyne? I have antares auto tune and pay 22.99 a month don’t know which one is better. I use FL studio
I'm not a vocalist but I really enjoyed this video. Some eye opening angles and approaches for learning guitar as well. Great vid.
This is a great video really what you are saying it makes so much sense to me, I am a classical guitar trained musician and I know what you mean when you perform and loose all the magic...
Great voice! And useful tips, thanks. Definitely going to try the conversational method.
Good!
So needed this ❤️
Brilliant!
outstanding voice and advice!
Amazing ❤ I understand everything u said
I really needed this.
Excelent collab!!! I follow you both's channels!!!
This is the first time I really want to subscribe
When you told us to embrace our flaws, that's one thing I never thought about. I will start to think about more while recording ^^
Brilliant video, thanks
this is pure gold tbh
That “loooooo” is so magical! Awesome tips man, thanks
For me, I started getting better at singing when I would raise my chin up, I have more definition in my voice, and just keep practicing. Knowing your range, breathing properly, keep your chin raised up, raising the soft palate, that’s how it got better. And just have fun with it.
love this. thank you, sensei!
Thank you Chris! ✌🏻
Very good tips thank u!!!
Thanks a lot it's very great advice

Great video thanks !! :-) can't wait for the next ones about recording singing tips

That section at 5:25 was painful, where Chris sings accurately but without emotion or engagement. I could hear myself and many of the vocal takes I've done. I'm now considering revisiting every vocal I've ever done...Thanks Chris; amazing video. Subscribed
This was the best explanation to date.👌
This was VERY USEFUL.
Brilliant ❤ SUBSCRIBED
I love this... do away with the performance mindset. Instead, use the freedom mindset. You will make less mistakes.. Thanks man..
