Actually this helped me a lot. Thanks, when you said it should feel as if your voice is just falling out and I should not push my voice out I realised what I do wrong.
she emulates vocal strain, and in 1 SECOND is able to switch to correct vocal support and perfect resonance. the control she has over her voice is unbelievable. THAT is good technique !!! subscribed!
I was so ashamed to record myself singing because I hated my voice. Then I started to do it and in the beginning some phases in almost every song was a disaster, but I kept and it was so good, because I started to understand my voice better.
Hi Pranav Giri, This is a very common issue. Believe me you are not alone :) I recommend that you work on mastering your head voice and then practice mixing some head voice into your chest voice when you sing higher. I made a video on head and chest voice as well as a track to help practice mixing chest and head voice. Here they are: Head/chest voice video: th-cam.com/video/zM2GDKDLr8s/w-d-xo.html Practice track: th-cam.com/video/ACGHei4wfOs/w-d-xo.html Hope that helps :)
I'm using diapraghm and always start high note like open my mouth when I'm going to eat not too big and not too small so I can Hit G#5 with head voice and my falsetto can hit F5 and my lowest note C#2 and I can do Whistle(Inhale X it's not healty and I'm not whistling a lot) and I can Hit A7
Truth is, its all about placement. Most of the the time a lyric just cant do what a dramatic can do easily. That goes vice versa. You can achieve the same notes but you'll have to approach it differently. Most importantly as said in the video, don't rely mostly on your throat. Use your full chest cavity, utilize your whole face to distribute the tension.
I used to think ALL singers were born blessed, until I saw vocal coach videos and realised my voice got 20-30% better by breathing correctly, not a great singer but hoping to be able to sing for my cat soon.
how did you do it? and in what sense? whistle note? belted high note? head voice? the best way i do a high note is i imagine the sound coming from the diagram, up my spine and coming out of my mouth, when you do high notes your mouth needs to be open, usually when i do high notes my mouth looks like this, 😬 (but the teeth aren't like that) i hope that helped some??😭
I just want to sing without feeling so unconfident and uncomfortable. I have always hated my voice, it isn't the worst but I'm not good hahaha. I just try to practice alone which is probably why I strain my voice because I am trying to not be loud so my family can't hear. I literally just want to do karaoke with friends without wanting to claw my throat out heheh
I couldn’t save my voice when I was three I started singing professional songs and my vocals couldn’t take out so now I don’t even know how my voice actually sounds like I’m stuck with this fake voice
Miraculous ladybug Family you know you speak.. say “yayy” as if you are very excited and happy. Use that voice to sing, relax your throat and feel the song. It should feel so good to sing, don’t feel like you have to tighten your tummy or any of that try to just sing like you, no someone else
i can feel phlegm when i sing high notes , but that only happens when i’m by myself. for some reason, my voice is perfectly clear when i sing in front of others, but when i’m by myself, it’s rlly dry and crackly
I have this issue. First of all a healthy immune system and plenty of the 90 Essential Nutrients including the EFAs from fish oil, krill oil, avocado, and including enough vitamin D, Vitamin C, Zinc, and iodine, also DMG, Quercitin and MAC can help. But beyond all that, a singers secret is to mix cayenne pepper, honey and vinegar, and gargle with that. You could use balsamic vinegar with that mixture. Might even be brave and use the extra hot cayenne pepper ground. Just gargling with it, so it should be fine, this cuts the phlegm. Good Turmeric product might not hurt either, like Bodease
I was in chorus 10 years and no body told me that you can hurt your vocal cords my music teachers never told us about this I lost my voice for 3 weeks because I was holding a very high note for a long time and I never knew this could happen I heard a pop and went to ent doctor it was the worst time of my life it was awful so thank you for teaching people ❤️🎶
I feel like my voice changed and it cannot sustain high notes unlike before. I don't know what happened, my suspicion is that i barely practice this few yrs. Im hurt because alot of people noticed it especially my high school friends, my mom even teased me saying that my voice is like a raging chicken. I regret ignoring my beautiful voice. Now my voice is nasally strained and cannot belt high notes. :(
Hi Roxanne MCV, Thank you for sharing your story, I'm sorry to hear that has happened to you. I've worked with singers before who has experienced similar issues. I recommend the you do three things. 1st go see an ENT to make sure it is not something more serious than a lack of training affecting your voice. 2nd, start by doing gentle exercises when you resume your training. Lip trills and slides are good starters. It is like if you used to run a lot but then took a break. If you start by running a marathon it is too much. The same goes for your voice. 3rd, what is affecting your voice might also be that you have gained some different singing habits over the years. It is common to develop tension without noticing it. I've seen good progress with my students who go back and sing old songs that they used to sing because it triggers their previous way of singing. So try and practice with some of your older songs and see if it makes a difference. I hope this helps. Please let me know how it goes :)
@@singgeek Hi Singgeek , I noticed that you really put some time to answer all the commenters problem and questions. For that I would like to thank you. My condition really saddened me to the point that I'm having anxiety to join a chorale audition unlike before which I can audition with confidence. I cant have a singing lessons right now because of financial problems too. I will try to rehearse by myself and dedicate an hour for my singing, like what you suggested. Thnk you so much
3:14 “you’re voice…falling out effortlessly!”. This is the best advice on TH-cam! I’m a piano singer, who has long fought with my tendency to push…due in part to trying to match the volume of the piano. I’ve tried to “sing less” or telling myself to “stop pushing”, but that just doesn’t stop me from doing it. This mental imagery about the words just falling out, though, simply works for me…in a big way. I guess we all have different images that work for us. After thinking about it this way, my voice becomes so much freer when I sing. I find that I’m no longer locked into anyone specific configuration for the duration of a phrase. I can change that configuration midway through. And as an unexpected bonus, I’m actually louder! Thank you for this!
I actually used my troat alot when i sing and also speak and then i ended it up swelling and cracking please help me how can i avoid it! Im afraid everytime i speak because i might crack-up, btw new subsriber here love your videos ♥
Hi Kristine Li, Thanks for sharing your experience. This is common and you can learn to not strain. The trick is, that you have to get used to producing sound differently than you are used to, as you might know habits can be broken. I recommend you try out these two videos to help you experience vocalising without straining. 1. The exercise in this video lets you experience your voice as it sounds to everyone else. Hearing your voice in this way can help you realize that you do not need as much effort as you are used to in order to make sound: th-cam.com/video/0yKMbRiOwsw/w-d-xo.html 2. I also recommend you connect your breath support to your voice. Doing lip trills can help you with this. Here is a video: th-cam.com/video/fwNPp-RS4IY/w-d-xo.html I hope this helps. If you have any other questions please ask me again. I used to experience straining when I first started singing and I am very passionate about helping others in the same boat :)
That is so great to hear! Accepting your natural voice is, in my opinion, one of the best things you can do for your singing. Everyones voice is unique and I'm sure you are just at the beginning of learning about all the things you like about your natural voice :)
I'm in church choir. You know my problem is that I'm known for singing really high notes. Even if its really low I start off with high pitch. This makes things difficult when the pitch gets even higher. And my problem is that I sing from my throat. So it's a lot of pain and struggle.. After singing for a few minutes I feel a lot of strain and pain in my throat. This also makes my singing look like I'm yelling.My singing is good though despite the fact that it feels less soft and loud.. Due to this my voice is loud af and hoarse. Thankyou for this video. I was insecure about my voice and the pain when I sing is horrible. 😀😀
3:43 "This is something where if you lay off the effort a little bit..." Very true. I just came over from the finding your range video. Once I realized I was straining my voice and made myself to relax, I was actually able to hit higher notes. The only issue is that I lose resonance in those higher notes.
I noticed I was losing range. I usually forced out as much air as possible. Frightening to think how much damage I've done by singing incorrectly for years. Thanks, like keeping my shoulders dropped, relaxed and neck and head tilted forwards seems to help.
Hi neymar0704, Thanks for your question. The cause of a raspy voice can be connected to different things. If you find your voice to be very raspy, I would suggest that you start by seeing an ENT (ear nose throat doctor). They will be able to look at your vocal folds to see if there is anything going on with your voice anatomically that might be hindering it from producing sound freely. I know it is not the most fun answer but my number one priority is to make sure we keep your voice safe so before you start doing any exercises I recommend that you get your voice checked out by a specialist. If your voice looks fine then I suggest you do some exercises to balance the sound production in your vocal folds. Lip trills are really helpful in connecting your voice with your breath support. I made a video on lip trills here: th-cam.com/video/fwNPp-RS4IY/w-d-xo.html Once you are able to trill your lips freely, try starting a sound by trilling your lips and then open your mouth to finish the note on an "ah" sound. This should naturally lead you to produce that sound with a good breath pressure in your voice. Let me know how it goes and please don't hesitate to ask follow up questions :)
Singgeek hej Romas svarer lige på dansk, tusind tak for din hjælp jeg anede ikke at det kunne have noget gøre med det, men jeg tror du har ret da min stemme når jeg ikke synger også lyder som om jeg snakker lidt gennem næsen.
Helt ok med Dansk :) Ja, den måde vi snakker på kan også påvirke vores stemme meget. Det er faktisk også noget jeg går en del op i, da jeg snakker meget i løbet of dagen når jeg underviser. Det er en god ide hvis du også sørger for at give stemmen støtte nar du snakker.
@@neymar-tv5cx good point ;-) Jeg har lavet nogle videor om "breath support" her: th-cam.com/video/e-9LPpsBidE/w-d-xo.html Håber det hjælper, ellers spør' endelig igen.
THANK YOU so much this helped a lot! I am trying to improve my singing and over time my voice started hurting every time i sing at first i thought it was vocal nodes but i decided to research first and i saw my errors and now my voice feels better thank you thank you!
Oh. My. Word..... So I sing lead in our church's worship team and THIS is what I deal with AAAALLLL the time and I haven't had a clue on how to explain it to my peers!!! I will be sharing this!
I know my voice sounds (conventionally) good, but the problem is that I'm really not resistant? I feel like my voice gets tired after a few songs. What can I do about it?
Well when IU was doin a concert in my country the audience couldn't stop screaming so loud that IU and her band couldn't even her hear voice but she still did a great job but I wouldn't blame my countrymen cuz they waited for her for so long but in the end the audience just sang with her it was beautiful
Not a professional singer by any means, but learned late in life that I’m an alto. I always felt the need to sing Higher and was always straining haha - but singing in my comfortable range feels revolutionary.
Thanks a lot for the video. I am so new to singing and I experienced the strain lot of time. Sometimes in the middle of a song I try to relax and calm my voice.
What I now know is that we have to do vocal exercises before singing, and that HAS helped me a lot. However, I don't understand about things like use your diaphram to sing and which part to sing, or something
I recently realized I strain a lot. I sing with fry and rasp and I can push so hard I get light headed. What's funny is I can get the same fry with much less effort. I have been told I sound like Jim Morrison (chest singer) from the doors. I know I can struggle with being flat. I know to raise my eyebrows to lift my pallet. it's improving. Your videos are really good.
back in the days i can do ed sheeran's runs effortlessly i got amazed because i couldn't believe i could sing i went on and on to the point i was unconsciously ruining my voice, now I can't do runs anymore some notes just won't come out. y'all listen to this girl she's a real vocal adviser...
Hi . It is really worthy to listen to you. I have undergone a vocal polyp removal , now I realised, its due to vocal strain . I am finding difficulty whenever I sing high pitch notes. I will start practicing on different exercises you have suggested.
Lots of like and almost no dislikes. I havent seen that big of a difference before! You videos are very helpful and my teacher is usong these videos during quarantine. Stay safe!!!
Now this might not be the same for everyone but, I sing as a hobby and I can't really find the time to practoce anymore, so it may be because you stopped practicing consistently? Again I don't know if this the same for everyone, so yeah... I hope this helped a little!
Great video! I know I'm guilty of these things, which is exactly why I'm here. When I listen back to rehearsals (which I always record for the reasons you stated) I can hear that I'm yelling more than singing. I'm very aware of the fact that my voice lacks the "nice, brilliant tone" you speak of. I would love to see a video from you on this specific topic -- improving vocal brilliance. :)
I remember way back when I was a teenager, almost 40 years ago, I always tried to make my veins pop out of my neck because I thought that was the proper way to sing. Whitney Houston always had veins popping and she was one of my biggest idols. Of course I never got them too so I just stopped trying after a few months lol. If only I could just sing and stay on key throughout the entire song.
Thank you so much! It's my first time watching one of your videos and it already helped me a lot! You have a beautiful voice and I hope I'll be able to sing like you. thx again :)
I've been singing with my head voice all my life and my throat never hurt, then yesterday i tried singing with lots of chest voice, like falsetto or something, and now it hurts so bad🙁🙁
I was never taught professionally how to sing so I think I did end up straining my voice, and I noticed that it was harder for me to get into my upper range since I wasn’t using good technique and it hurt a little, now I’m afraid I damaged it forever! But I have not been singing hard songs for a few months now and mostly just singing soft ones when I want to sing so I don’t ruin my voice, I hope it will heal well. I’m looking for a vocal coach so I can learn correctly but until then I’m going to be more careful. I’m kinda scared this is permanent though because I really love to sing and it’s one of the things I good at. I noticed a loss in control when I sing stronger songs that are kind of loud, like I can’t sing it indicately, but I haven’t sung anything like that in a while so I’m not sure. Thanks for the tips! I was trying to sing this really soft smooth song and I was wondering why I couldn’t, but the tips helped me fix that for the song I was singing mostly!
Recording is The best thing lve done so far for my voice. After a week i done more progress then ive done for a whole year. Now i get more The feeling that im creating and tuning a instrument that adjust til i get that im happy with. It hard though becuse it so mutch You need to remeber. You learn thing and forget another. The fine motoric behoind dosnt make it easier and its not just many things You need to remeber, i have to be aware of of it all at the same time and Learn to have perfect controll of it all at The same time, cuz Your body need to work simultaneously with eachother so it all Keeps in perfect line and hormony always. Very complex stuff to do with your body with that realisation i understand this is not something You can learn like that. You Will never to focus on so mutch at The same time. Thats why i forget my resonance techniqe sometimes if i lat my focus on how my core when i sing when i focus on reconance maybe more core Will start to behave in i way im not happy with. This is something that your body has to be used to, and that takes alot of time for sure. Many hours of training. Becuse it can only work when You done this so mutch your body flows and breath without You need to think so mutch about it. It becomes more of a reflex dosnt. need your fully focus and brain power. That is obvious even if i am a amature with no experience. You cant just go The a swimmingpool and expect to swim fast like a pro with The training. Maybe its same with singingin. Its just not possible to sing well, before muscles are strong enough with perfect sync. You cant never learn to swim well. If You only train arm movement and u need a trainer if You want to take You swimming to a more serious level. You save a Great amount of time and energy on training that dosnt give resultat. And dont be ashamed that You suck. No one Will laugh at You and You dont look stupid in any way. Becuse let me tell You a fact. Everyone starts at botton and has been where You are. You dont embarasse your self in anyway. Whats embarassing is People Who do nothing. If You dont try You cant fail. And wanna now a secret, its not about natural talent or musical ear thats unique and special and is some You are born with. Suspect music ppl tells these lies to keep competion down, or maybe viewd as special so they can sit on their gordous piedestal. Dont know. The one thing that Will have The gonna determain your development is how mutch do You want it? The ones Who wants it The most are certainly The ones at The top. Trust me. Well if You rich and can afford The best help, maybe thats a big factor as well. But for ordinary ppl your willpower is whats gonna determain how good You Will be. The one with greatest Will power always gone swipe The floor. Whats need to be done is decide your goal, and make it very big You want your goal to be where your Dreams are. Is it to be a star, set that goal. I just want to have a Great voice so that i have it in my life to enjoy doing. I do it for me only. Dont mind to become very good though. And when the goal is set, You should Right there and then get it to your head that this is what You gonna strive for and prepare your self to be diciplined and important it is that You can not ever fail. You most achive your goal no matter what. This is on the of your list of whats matter in your life. Skip a training should effecy You so hard You cant even sleep if You starts to Skip. Becuse You Will never achive this if You arent disciplin enough. Impossible to be 100% in You training. But You should not accept that your training maybe isnt so important to follow like a machine. Skip some of it. Dosnt matter. It do matter. Becuse toes Skip days i told your self didnt matter. Is The amount if days gonna skiped when The 100% is followed. And Your neq Skip Day schedule had alot more Skip days then planed. Sing with a partner is a good way as well. Becuse You gonna push each other. And becuse You know how serious your partner is and You have promise eachother to be just as serious You cant just make an excuse to skip a training. You gona have to have a damn good excuse for something like that. Becuse You know how mutch time your partner had spent and needs You. So many Times both of you Will just go train for your friend sake. The arrangement its self stops You to skip. Its genius. You are always in competition to eachother its natural. This creates a enviroment The push You both to be That You ever could if done alone. Make it a lifestyle.you want to stare this with others Who You grown together with. Dont think You want it to be memory where You spent a sick amount of time just train and train. Becuse its a extremly high price to pay. Dosnt matter have Great You become. Stil a high price.if i want to be The best it dosnt matter in what. You have to pay a price of letting go something big that everyone else enjoys. The amount of work behind is no suprise. But make it The best of it. Its suicide to it alone. Have friends cant handle social, they want so mutch but its so important anf insted behave in a way that makes them feel so ashamed they feel like it set his future to always act wierd. Only way is to become a star. So hours spent Day after Day year after. Almost Impossible to hang with. Cuz even me as closest friend hard becuse of beeing reminded how easy i made it look. Even calling me alpha en him Delta. The irony is how i always looked up them and was greatful how mutch they have learn me about morals empathy and made understand im not stupid as I think. And he was The alpha between us. Now he has spent so mutch time alone it made huge impact, still isolet alone in The Woods only playing game. Music Dreams dropped. Cuz ge didnt count on that he meet People and preform infront of others so other would know Who is. Alone in a room dosnt really creates exciting character ad well. It was hard to se when he tried be a cool rockstar guy. Very sad. Other friend took it so far he changed hus sex. And now regrets it and want to die. He only wanted attention. So drugs. They do drugs in Great amounts and find happiness there. Idk what to do
I have swollen lymph nodes and im good at singing before now I cant hit my high notes. My regular voice even lower and my voice sounds so raspy. I researched it and I need to have a 'surgery' im too scared!!! Can you guys help me how to restore my voice?
Dude same, but luckily surgery wasn't necessary for me I just need to really make time to nurture my vocal cords and voice back to health. How are you doing now
If you've been using your chest voice to attack high notes using the wrong technique, then it will potentially damage your cords. Try using a clean sound more often; falsetto technique.
I recommend watching Claire Hosterman on Instagram. She has an IGTV video talking about pitch. Also, look into ear training. Something as simple as playing a note on the piano and making sure you properly match the pitch is tedious work but worth it.
I was in a musical and it’s essentially cancelled now bc of Corona. I was really overusing my voice every day and pushing it to the limit. Now every time I sing, it’s almost immediately sore and there’s this weird scratch in the back of my throat when I sing. I’m really afraid I’ve permanently damaged my vocal cords and I can’t go see an EMT bc of social distancing. Do you know if it’s just overuse or something more serious?? I’m terrified...
thank you Ronja for the rich information your providing , i struggle with singing high pitches with my speaking voice and on bringing the resonance into the facial mask i have tried many times but till now i didnt find a satisfying results ... whenever i want to hit high pitches i change to folsetto which sound easier of course.... i just want the natural speaking voice .... thank you
I normally don't strain my voice and i haven't ever really. But today i did... or i think i was singing and just going into it but later at night I find my throat hurts badly. Very badly, like strep throat. I thank you so much. I usually know when i strain it and i stop. but today was different because i couldn't feel it was straining i felt normal until night.
Hi, Thanks for sharing your experience. Yes, it can be really tricky when you don't feel it right away. I wish you a speedy recovery and good luck with your singing :)
Thanks for this video. I hope it helps. I'm probably a bass-baritone or low baritone or maybe even lyric bass, and I can usually reach Bb5/B5 comfortably. I hope i can hit at least D6 comfortably after this. Btw, I'm 22 years old.
I think I am singing properly but I’m still not sure I really want to start a singing career and my voice sometimes does kinda hurt when I sing certain pitches. But it goes away In like 10 minutes, I’m practicing to become a metal type singer and growling does also hurt my voice for awhile but same as high pitch only about 10 minutes
Hi I just started trying to find my voice and I finally found it and It sounded really good and I didn't feel like I was straining and it was decently high but it seemed to come natural but, after a few hours it felt like I had a sore throat and a day later it still felt weird. I don't want to risk straining my voice but I want to be able to sing high like that as well. Should I stop trying to reach that range so I don't develop nodules?
Just one comment for ur entire channel... U r great teacher and so logical... Ur lessons are great.. This what student need a teacher who have answers.. I thank u and god bless u dear :) lots of love... Now I know how to lower the jaw cause that was biggest problem I was facing thanks 🙏
I totally forgot to try that move that looks silly as you said! I remember seein a different video about it being a way to listen to your actual voice vs what you think your voice sounds like without checking it with covering the front of them because of the extra vibrations caused by it.
Hi Raymond, I'm so happy to hear that you find the explanation understandable. This is important to me so it is just so great to hear that it is working. Getting rid of strain is on the hard side for most people. Keep working at it and you will get it right :)
I love how you explain things, it's really enlightening to me, I have one question, you suggest to record ourselves which is great and I love to do it but I feel like my dictaphone changes my voice because it filters many thing, which device do you recommend to have a recording as close as my voice as possible? I tried many things but haven't find something that records my voice without filtering and evening up the recording.
Thanks for lesson my throat were damaged and I lost ease above E5 and my veins in throat become bigger and infected but i have proper warm ups and rest for 8 or 9 hours how can i restore them and bring back with ease😭😭
I recommend really practice breathing exercises, MAKE SURE TO SING WITH YOUR DIAPHRAGM, when you breath in make sure your stomach goes out,if your chest goes out, you're doing it wrong. Proper breath support is crucial! As for improving your range, support and breathing for each note is super important and I recommend GRADUALLY going higher in your warmup scales with full breath support. Forgot to mention vocal placement in the body is important too.
2:14 - it's the platysma muscle you're seeing in the neck when straining. They're not veins. The internal jugular is too deep and the external jugulars are far more lateral.
Wow thanks for the tip. Will give it a try. My influences are male rock ballad and it’s really tight throat style, It might take a while to relearn something new.
Can you do one showing us how to move from low note to a higher note or vice versa! I like how you use your hands to cover or separate your hearing from your sound. That actually helps. I can hear myself and how I sound. Sometimes when I sing I would cover one ear (dj style) and try to hear myself. But this helps. Thanks
I want to sing well and without strain so bad, but every time I start singing loud and proud I feel so much tension in my throat and even when I correct this it’s so easy to fall back into that seconds later. I guess I just need more practice 😂
I have a contralto singing voice. I would like to improve on this voice type and make it more colorful with resonance. Any videos or exercises you can recommend? This video is very informative. I think at one point I starined my voice trying to consistently hit the high notes of "You Got it All," by the Jets.
I been recording myself sing alot singing Hank Williams Johnny cash and other amazing artists I also play guitar as well the recordings sound good but sometimes when I'm singing Hank Williams I try to use way to much power while singing along I'll do these tips thank you
Hi Khabadaar, Thanks for your question. It might be helpful for you to work on mixing your chest and head voice. The voice often breaks when pushing to carry chest voice too high. Here is a video on the registers: th-cam.com/video/zM2GDKDLr8s/w-d-xo.html Hope it helps :)
Actually this helped me a lot. Thanks, when you said it should feel as if your voice is just falling out and I should not push my voice out I realised what I do wrong.

I was so ashamed to record myself singing because I hated my voice. Then I started to do it and in the beginning some phases in almost every song was a disaster, but I kept and it was so good, because I started to understand my voice better.

When I try to sing the high notes my voice get very suppressed and i have to use lot of force.
How can sing high without that much force.
Hi Pranav Giri, This is a very common issue. Believe me you are not alone :) I recommend that you work on mastering your head voice and then practice mixing some head voice into your chest voice when you sing higher. I made a video on head and chest voice as well as a track to help practice mixing chest and head voice. Here they are:

Diaphragm
I'm using diapraghm and always start high note like open my mouth when I'm going to eat not too big and not too small so I can Hit G#5 with head voice and my falsetto can hit F5 and my lowest note C#2 and I can do Whistle(Inhale X it's not healty and I'm not whistling a lot) and I can Hit A7
@Gabrielle Nielsen thanks for the advice, and I'm also still studying for Belting and doing High Falsetto
Truth is, its all about placement. Most of the the time a lyric just cant do what a dramatic can do easily. That goes vice versa. You can achieve the same notes but you'll have to approach it differently. Most importantly as said in the video, don't rely mostly on your throat. Use your full chest cavity, utilize your whole face to distribute the tension.
I used to think ALL singers were born blessed, until I saw vocal coach videos and realised my voice got 20-30% better by breathing correctly, not a great singer but hoping to be able to sing for my cat soon.
I hit a high note for the first time and now my throat hurts a lot
how did you do it? and in what sense? whistle note? belted high note? head voice? the best way i do a high note is i imagine the sound coming from the diagram, up my spine and coming out of my mouth, when you do high notes your mouth needs to be open, usually when i do high notes my mouth looks like this, 😬 (but the teeth aren't like that) i hope that helped some??😭

Shudnt happen :c

I just try to practice alone which is probably why I strain my voice because I am trying to not be loud so my family can't hear. I literally just want to do karaoke with friends without wanting to claw my throat out heheh
Keep practicing u dont need to be a prodigy to sing
I'm the same but I'm getting better because I'm doing voice exercises don't bring yourself down
Just keep practicing but make sure before you sing you warmup 😊
sameee
Same
How do people sing from their chest? I sing from my throat and I know that it is wrong
Use your abs for support. All the work and pressure and tireness should be in your abs and not your upper body
@@lynnly2406 i dont have abs but tabs
You need to sing from your stomach for a better voice
Hold the air in your diaphragm not your chest
I want volcols to using spring way by bts
I couldn’t save my voice when I was three I started singing professional songs and my vocals couldn’t take out so now I don’t even know how my voice actually sounds like I’m stuck with this fake voice
Miraculous ladybug Family you know you speak.. say “yayy” as if you are very excited and happy. Use that voice to sing, relax your throat and feel the song. It should feel so good to sing, don’t feel like you have to tighten your tummy or any of that try to just sing like you, no someone else
(2)
i feel like i have to clear my throat really often and i don’t know why?
same :(
Same I have no idea why
Me too... And if I don't do it then it doesn't sound clear, it's like cracking or something... If someone have any idea why please help... 🙏
@@alex89bmw do you eat or drink anything that has dairy before singing?
@@notleo6718 well, to be honest no... i tried to drink water before singing, but sometimes its even worst...
i can feel phlegm when i sing high notes , but that only happens when i’m by myself. for some reason, my voice is perfectly clear when i sing in front of others, but when i’m by myself, it’s rlly dry and crackly
Same!!! And also when I try to sing it feels like the phlegm is blocking my throat so I can't hit high notes and when i sing it doesn't sound clear.
drink plenty of water and try not clearing your throat bc it worsens it. God bless you :)
@@jesusdied4u693 thank you
I have this issue. First of all a healthy immune system and plenty of the 90 Essential Nutrients including the EFAs from fish oil, krill oil, avocado, and including enough vitamin D, Vitamin C, Zinc, and iodine, also DMG, Quercitin and MAC can help. But beyond all that, a singers secret is to mix cayenne pepper, honey and vinegar, and gargle with that. You could use balsamic vinegar with that mixture. Might even be brave and use the extra hot cayenne pepper ground. Just gargling with it, so it should be fine, this cuts the phlegm. Good Turmeric product might not hurt either, like Bodease
Why do you think that is that it’s different when you’re alone?
I was in chorus 10 years and no body told me that you can hurt your vocal cords my music teachers never told us about this I lost my voice for 3 weeks because I was holding a very high note for a long time and I never knew this could happen I heard a pop and went to ent doctor it was the worst time of my life it was awful so thank you for teaching people ❤️🎶
I feel like my voice changed and it cannot sustain high notes unlike before. I don't know what happened, my suspicion is that i barely practice this few yrs. Im hurt because alot of people noticed it especially my high school friends, my mom even teased me saying that my voice is like a raging chicken. I regret ignoring my beautiful voice. Now my voice is nasally strained and cannot belt high notes. :(
Hi Roxanne MCV, Thank you for sharing your story, I'm sorry to hear that has happened to you. I've worked with singers before who has experienced similar issues. I recommend the you do three things. 1st go see an ENT to make sure it is not something more serious than a lack of training affecting your voice. 2nd, start by doing gentle exercises when you resume your training. Lip trills and slides are good starters. It is like if you used to run a lot but then took a break. If you start by running a marathon it is too much. The same goes for your voice. 3rd, what is affecting your voice might also be that you have gained some different singing habits over the years. It is common to develop tension without noticing it. I've seen good progress with my students who go back and sing old songs that they used to sing because it triggers their previous way of singing. So try and practice with some of your older songs and see if it makes a difference. I hope this helps. Please let me know how it goes :)
@@singgeek Hi Singgeek , I noticed that you really put some time to answer all the commenters problem and questions. For that I would like to thank you. My condition really saddened me to the point that I'm having anxiety to join a chorale audition unlike before which I can audition with confidence. I cant have a singing lessons right now because of financial problems too. I will try to rehearse by myself and dedicate an hour for my singing, like what you suggested. Thnk you so much
3:14 “you’re voice…falling out effortlessly!”. This is the best advice on TH-cam! I’m a piano singer, who has long fought with my tendency to push…due in part to trying to match the volume of the piano. I’ve tried to “sing less” or telling myself to “stop pushing”, but that just doesn’t stop me from doing it. This mental imagery about the words just falling out, though, simply works for me…in a big way. I guess we all have different images that work for us. After thinking about it this way, my voice becomes so much freer when I sing. I find that I’m no longer locked into anyone specific configuration for the duration of a phrase. I can change that configuration midway through. And as an unexpected bonus, I’m actually louder! Thank you for this!
Thank you mam! 😊
I've been suffering from vocal strain so many years.😭 I thought I'll never be able to sing again.
You are so very welcome. I wish you all the best with your singing :)
I actually used my troat alot when i sing and also speak and then i ended it up swelling and cracking please help me how can i avoid it! Im afraid everytime i speak because i might crack-up, btw new subsriber here love your videos ♥
Hi Kristine Li, Thanks for sharing your experience. This is common and you can learn to not strain. The trick is, that you have to get used to producing sound differently than you are used to, as you might know habits can be broken. I recommend you try out these two videos to help you experience vocalising without straining.
1. The exercise in this video lets you experience your voice as it sounds to everyone else. Hearing your voice in this way can help you realize that you do not need as much effort as you are used to in order to make sound: th-cam.com/video/0yKMbRiOwsw/w-d-xo.html
2. I also recommend you connect your breath support to your voice. Doing lip trills can help you with this. Here is a video: th-cam.com/video/fwNPp-RS4IY/w-d-xo.html
I hope this helps. If you have any other questions please ask me again. I used to experience straining when I first started singing and I am very passionate about helping others in the same boat :)
@@singgeek thanks alot and i hope you can make lot of videos because i watch every single of them and i enjoy it♥ have a nice day
Thanks you so much earlier I used to strain my voice but after you shared the tips I have started to accept my natural voice more.
That is so great to hear! Accepting your natural voice is, in my opinion, one of the best things you can do for your singing. Everyones voice is unique and I'm sure you are just at the beginning of learning about all the things you like about your natural voice :)
I'm in church choir. You know my problem is that I'm known for singing really high notes. Even if its really low I start off with high pitch. This makes things difficult when the pitch gets even higher. And my problem is that I sing from my throat. So it's a lot of pain and struggle.. After singing for a few minutes I feel a lot of strain and pain in my throat. This also makes my singing look like I'm yelling.My singing is good though despite the fact that it feels less soft and loud.. Due to this my voice is loud af and hoarse. Thankyou for this video. I was insecure about my voice and the pain when I sing is horrible. 😀😀
3:43 "This is something where if you lay off the effort a little bit..." Very true. I just came over from the finding your range video. Once I realized I was straining my voice and made myself to relax, I was actually able to hit higher notes. The only issue is that I lose resonance in those higher notes.
I love how you really give us tips and bejng literally pointing out what we should notice on the way we sing. Thank you.
I noticed I was losing range. I usually forced out as much air as possible. Frightening to think how much damage I've done by singing incorrectly for years. Thanks, like keeping my shoulders dropped, relaxed and neck and head tilted forwards seems to help.
I have a very raspy voice and i dont know what to do,
please help me
Hi neymar0704, Thanks for your question. The cause of a raspy voice can be connected to different things. If you find your voice to be very raspy, I would suggest that you start by seeing an ENT (ear nose throat doctor). They will be able to look at your vocal folds to see if there is anything going on with your voice anatomically that might be hindering it from producing sound freely. I know it is not the most fun answer but my number one priority is to make sure we keep your voice safe so before you start doing any exercises I recommend that you get your voice checked out by a specialist. If your voice looks fine then I suggest you do some exercises to balance the sound production in your vocal folds. Lip trills are really helpful in connecting your voice with your breath support. I made a video on lip trills here: th-cam.com/video/fwNPp-RS4IY/w-d-xo.html
Once you are able to trill your lips freely, try starting a sound by trilling your lips and then open your mouth to finish the note on an "ah" sound. This should naturally lead you to produce that sound with a good breath pressure in your voice. Let me know how it goes and please don't hesitate to ask follow up questions :)
Singgeek hej Romas svarer lige på dansk, tusind tak for din hjælp jeg anede ikke at det kunne have noget gøre med det, men jeg tror du har ret da min stemme når jeg ikke synger også lyder som om jeg snakker lidt gennem næsen.
Helt ok med Dansk :) Ja, den måde vi snakker på kan også påvirke vores stemme meget. Det er faktisk også noget jeg går en del op i, da jeg snakker meget i løbet of dagen når jeg underviser. Det er en god ide hvis du også sørger for at give stemmen støtte nar du snakker.
Singgeek Tusind tak det hjælper meget, men hvordan?
@@neymar-tv5cx good point ;-) Jeg har lavet nogle videor om "breath support" her: th-cam.com/video/e-9LPpsBidE/w-d-xo.html
Håber det hjælper, ellers spør' endelig igen.
THANK YOU so much this helped a lot! I am trying to improve my singing and over time my voice started hurting every time i sing at first i thought it was vocal nodes but i decided to research first and i saw my errors and now my voice feels better thank you thank you!
You save me from making my voice mess... Very deeply thankfull to you... may god give all grace on you ronia petersen.
Oh. My. Word..... So I sing lead in our church's worship team and THIS is what I deal with AAAALLLL the time and I haven't had a clue on how to explain it to my peers!!! I will be sharing this!
I know my voice sounds (conventionally) good, but the problem is that I'm really not resistant? I feel like my voice gets tired after a few songs. What can I do about it?
Keep singing. It’s a muscle that need to build endurance. And good hydration
It's the same for me, I'll try practicing more
Can't describe by words how thankful I am. Thank you so much. I like your videos. I'm from India. I'm 12 years old. My name is Darshini.
Well when IU was doin a concert in my country the audience couldn't stop screaming so loud that IU and her band couldn't even her hear voice but she still did a great job but I wouldn't blame my countrymen cuz they waited for her for so long but in the end the audience just sang with her it was beautiful
Not a professional singer by any means, but learned late in life that I’m an alto. I always felt the need to sing Higher and was always straining haha - but singing in my comfortable range feels revolutionary.
Thanks a lot for the video. I am so new to singing and I experienced the strain lot of time. Sometimes in the middle of a song I try to relax and calm my voice.
i cant over the “do da da do do” in every video, I LOVE IT!! 😭
How do you improve in your higher octave without sounding like you’re straining your voice?
Bingewatching your videos while following your exercise and I can already start to hear differences in my singing, woww. Ure such a good teacher!!
What I now know is that we have to do vocal exercises before singing, and that HAS helped me a lot. However, I don't understand about things like use your diaphram to sing and which part to sing, or something
i know this wont be seen by anyone but whatever, 5:34 my veins can be seen even when im talking in a normal voice so idk about that
I've seen some people that are naturally(?) like that. One of the example are Stell from SB19 yet his voice is 💜.
Am loving your instructive videos so much these days . Thank you very much 😊
I recently realized I strain a lot. I sing with fry and rasp and I can push so hard I get light headed. What's funny is I can get the same fry with much less effort. I have been told I sound like Jim Morrison (chest singer) from the doors. I know I can struggle with being flat. I know to raise my eyebrows to lift my pallet. it's improving. Your videos are really good.
back in the days i can do ed sheeran's runs effortlessly i got amazed because i couldn't believe i could sing i went on and on to the point i was unconsciously ruining my voice, now I can't do runs anymore some notes just won't come out. y'all listen to this girl she's a real vocal adviser...
Hi . It is really worthy to listen to you.
I have undergone a vocal polyp removal , now I realised, its due to vocal strain . I am finding difficulty whenever I sing high pitch notes.
I will start practicing on different exercises you have suggested.
Lots of like and almost no dislikes. I havent seen that big of a difference before! You videos are very helpful and my teacher is usong these videos during quarantine. Stay safe!!!
This is a very good TV show and we love it !
when you sing should your throat hurt a lil? cause mine feels a bit sore after a bit
No it means
When it hurts, itches, tickles or doesn't feel normal you should stop and figure out what's causing it.
Now this might not be the same for everyone but, I sing as a hobby and I can't really find the time to practoce anymore, so it may be because you stopped practicing consistently? Again I don't know if this the same for everyone, so yeah... I hope this helped a little!
@@roseate7811 that actually does make a lot of sense and I've thought of that, thank you for your input 😊
@@-Weemo- No Problem! I'm just glad I could help someone!
Great video! I know I'm guilty of these things, which is exactly why I'm here. When I listen back to rehearsals (which I always record for the reasons you stated) I can hear that I'm yelling more than singing. I'm very aware of the fact that my voice lacks the "nice, brilliant tone" you speak of. I would love to see a video from you on this specific topic -- improving vocal brilliance. :)
I remember way back when I was a teenager, almost 40 years ago, I always tried to make my veins pop out of my neck because I thought that was the proper way to sing. Whitney Houston always had veins popping and she was one of my biggest idols. Of course I never got them too so I just stopped trying after a few months lol. If only I could just sing and stay on key throughout the entire song.
your such a big help! thanks alot i was taking this singing class and after 1 week my voice had it and ever sence found u i started to not strain
Good point in terms of looking in the mirror / window
You actually helped me a lot to sing perfectly I appreciate what you are doing keep making such videos and finally thankyou a lot
Thank you so much!
It's my first time watching one of your videos and it already helped me a lot! You have a beautiful voice and I hope I'll be able to sing like you. thx again :)
I've been singing with my head voice all my life and my throat never hurt, then yesterday i tried singing with lots of chest voice, like falsetto or something, and now it hurts so bad🙁🙁
Yeah
I was never taught professionally how to sing so I think I did end up straining my voice, and I noticed that it was harder for me to get into my upper range since I wasn’t using good technique and it hurt a little, now I’m afraid I damaged it forever! But I have not been singing hard songs for a few months now and mostly just singing soft ones when I want to sing so I don’t ruin my voice, I hope it will heal well. I’m looking for a vocal coach so I can learn correctly but until then I’m going to be more careful. I’m kinda scared this is permanent though because I really love to sing and it’s one of the things I good at. I noticed a loss in control when I sing stronger songs that are kind of loud, like I can’t sing it indicately, but I haven’t sung anything like that in a while so I’m not sure. Thanks for the tips! I was trying to sing this really soft smooth song and I was wondering why I couldn’t, but the tips helped me fix that for the song I was singing mostly!
Halooo
Recording is The best thing lve done so far for my voice. After a week i done more progress then ive done for a whole year. Now i get more The feeling that im creating and tuning a instrument that adjust til i get that im happy with. It hard though becuse it so mutch You need to remeber. You learn thing and forget another. The fine motoric behoind dosnt make it easier and its not just many things You need to remeber, i have to be aware of of it all at the same time and Learn to have perfect controll of it all at The same time, cuz Your body need to work simultaneously with eachother so it all Keeps in perfect line and hormony always. Very complex stuff to do with your body with that realisation i understand this is not something You can learn like that. You Will never to focus on so mutch at The same time. Thats why i forget my resonance techniqe sometimes if i lat my focus on how my core when i sing when i focus on reconance maybe more core Will start to behave in i way im not happy with. This is something that your body has to be used to, and that takes alot of time for sure. Many hours of training. Becuse it can only work when You done this so mutch your body flows and breath without You need to think so mutch about it. It becomes more of a reflex dosnt. need your fully focus and brain power. That is obvious even if i am a amature with no experience. You cant just go The a swimmingpool and expect to swim fast like a pro with The training. Maybe its same with singingin. Its just not possible to sing well, before muscles are strong enough with perfect sync. You cant never learn to swim well. If You only train arm movement and u need a trainer if You want to take You swimming to a more serious level. You save a Great amount of time and energy on training that dosnt give resultat. And dont be ashamed that You suck. No one Will laugh at You and You dont look stupid in any way. Becuse let me tell You a fact. Everyone starts at botton and has been where You are. You dont embarasse your self in anyway. Whats embarassing is People Who do nothing. If You dont try You cant fail. And wanna now a secret, its not about natural talent or musical ear thats unique and special and is some You are born with. Suspect music ppl tells these lies to keep competion down, or maybe viewd as special so they can sit on their gordous piedestal. Dont know. The one thing that Will have The gonna determain your development is how mutch do You want it? The ones Who wants it The most are certainly The ones at The top. Trust me. Well if You rich and can afford The best help, maybe thats a big factor as well. But for ordinary ppl your willpower is whats gonna determain how good You Will be. The one with greatest Will power always gone swipe The floor. Whats need to be done is decide your goal, and make it very big You want your goal to be where your Dreams are. Is it to be a star, set that goal. I just want to have a Great voice so that i have it in my life to enjoy doing. I do it for me only. Dont mind to become very good though. And when the goal is set, You should Right there and then get it to your head that this is what You gonna strive for and prepare your self to be diciplined and important it is that You can not ever fail. You most achive your goal no matter what. This is on the of your list of whats matter in your life. Skip a training should effecy You so hard You cant even sleep if You starts to Skip. Becuse You Will never achive this if You arent disciplin enough. Impossible to be 100% in You training. But You should not accept that your training maybe isnt so important to follow like a machine. Skip some of it. Dosnt matter. It do matter. Becuse toes Skip days i told your self didnt matter. Is The amount if days gonna skiped when The 100% is followed. And Your neq Skip Day schedule had alot more Skip days then planed. Sing with a partner is a good way as well. Becuse You gonna push each other. And becuse You know how serious your partner is and You have promise eachother to be just as serious You cant just make an excuse to skip a training. You gona have to have a damn good excuse for something like that. Becuse You know how mutch time your partner had spent and needs You. So many Times both of you Will just go train for your friend sake. The arrangement its self stops You to skip. Its genius. You are always in competition to eachother its natural. This creates a enviroment The push You both to be That You ever could if done alone. Make it a lifestyle.you want to stare this with others Who You grown together with. Dont think You want it to be memory where You spent a sick amount of time just train and train. Becuse its a extremly high price to pay. Dosnt matter have Great You become. Stil a high price.if i want to be The best it dosnt matter in what. You have to pay a price of letting go something big that everyone else enjoys. The amount of work behind is no suprise. But make it The best of it. Its suicide to it alone. Have friends cant handle social, they want so mutch but its so important anf insted behave in a way that makes them feel so ashamed they feel like it set his future to always act wierd. Only way is to become a star. So hours spent Day after Day year after. Almost Impossible to hang with. Cuz even me as closest friend hard becuse of beeing reminded how easy i made it look. Even calling me alpha en him Delta. The irony is how i always looked up them and was greatful how mutch they have learn me about morals empathy and made understand im not stupid as I think. And he was The alpha between us. Now he has spent so mutch time alone it made huge impact, still isolet alone in The Woods only playing game. Music Dreams dropped. Cuz ge didnt count on that he meet People and preform infront of others so other would know Who is. Alone in a room dosnt really creates exciting character ad well. It was hard to se when he tried be a cool rockstar guy. Very sad. Other friend took it so far he changed hus sex. And now regrets it and want to die. He only wanted attention. So drugs. They do drugs in Great amounts and find happiness there. Idk what to do
I have swollen lymph nodes and im good at singing before now I cant hit my high notes. My regular voice even lower and my voice sounds so raspy. I researched it and I need to have a 'surgery' im too scared!!! Can you guys help me how to restore my voice?
Moonwalker 20 any updates?
Dude same, but luckily surgery wasn't necessary for me I just need to really make time to nurture my vocal cords and voice back to health. How are you doing now
If you've been using your chest voice to attack high notes using the wrong technique, then it will potentially damage your cords. Try using a clean sound more often; falsetto technique.
How is swollen lymph nodes related to vocal damage? Can you please explain?
I actually tried the um put your hands in your ears it totally work i kinda enjoyed it
lately i have been feeling like there's a lump in my throat and it's becoming difficult to sing. i'm sincerely hoping that this video will help.
My voice is very pitchy like when I sing it sounds kind if pitchy weird idk how to explain but its annoying what should I do??
I am suffering the same.😣
I used to have this problem. It went away with time and practice
@@leahpickering1528 ohh I'll try hard. ❤️
I recommend watching Claire Hosterman on Instagram. She has an IGTV video talking about pitch. Also, look into ear training. Something as simple as playing a note on the piano and making sure you properly match the pitch is tedious work but worth it.
I was in a musical and it’s essentially cancelled now bc of Corona. I was really overusing my voice every day and pushing it to the limit. Now every time I sing, it’s almost immediately sore and there’s this weird scratch in the back of my throat when I sing. I’m really afraid I’ve permanently damaged my vocal cords and I can’t go see an EMT bc of social distancing. Do you know if it’s just overuse or something more serious?? I’m terrified...
Mcgill?
Same.... can somebody help us with this??
I just want to thank you a lot. I found every info that Im looking for in your page.
Thank you!! I'm a new subscriber and I just want to say thank you for all you do
Wow, so much info in such a short video.
thank you Ronja for the rich information your providing , i struggle with singing high pitches with my speaking voice and on bringing the resonance into the facial mask i have tried many times but till now i didnt find a satisfying results ... whenever i want to hit high pitches i change to folsetto which sound easier of course.... i just want the natural speaking voice .... thank you
I normally don't strain my voice and i haven't ever really. But today i did... or i think i was singing and just going into it but later at night I find my throat hurts badly. Very badly, like strep throat. I thank you so much. I usually know when i strain it and i stop. but today was different because i couldn't feel it was straining i felt normal until night.
Hi, Thanks for sharing your experience. Yes, it can be really tricky when you don't feel it right away. I wish you a speedy recovery and good luck with your singing :)
TH-cam is trying to tell me something...
I don't know why but I can't concentrate because of her smile 😂😂
This is very helpful
Thank you very much
Thanks for this video. I hope it helps. I'm probably a bass-baritone or low baritone or maybe even lyric bass, and I can usually reach Bb5/B5 comfortably. I hope i can hit at least D6 comfortably after this. Btw, I'm 22 years old.
I think I am singing properly but I’m still not sure I really want to start a singing career and my voice sometimes does kinda hurt when I sing certain pitches. But it goes away In like 10 minutes, I’m practicing to become a metal type singer and growling does also hurt my voice for awhile but same as high pitch only about 10 minutes
3.30 , thank you, I needed this advice.
Hi I just started trying to find my voice and I finally found it and It sounded really good and I didn't feel like I was straining and it was decently high but it seemed to come natural but, after a few hours it felt like I had a sore throat and a day later it still felt weird. I don't want to risk straining my voice but I want to be able to sing high like that as well. Should I stop trying to reach that range so I don't develop nodules?
This is the best video I found on this topic Very helpful Thank you❤❤❤
I'm so happy you found the video helpful. Thanks for taking the time to letting me know :) I wish you all the best with your singing.
Just one comment for ur entire channel... U r great teacher and so logical... Ur lessons are great.. This what student need a teacher who have answers.. I thank u and god bless u dear :) lots of love... Now I know how to lower the jaw cause that was biggest problem I was facing thanks 🙏
I’m in the talent show, and have 14 days to practice. I’m singing “Someone You Loved” and for some reason I can never sing the high notes.
I totally forgot to try that move that looks silly as you said! I remember seein a different video about it being a way to listen to your actual voice vs what you think your voice sounds like without checking it with covering the front of them because of the extra vibrations caused by it.
your explanation is so easy to understand.. but trying its on the hard side of me.. but i can notice what im doing wrong.. thanks so much
Hi Raymond, I'm so happy to hear that you find the explanation understandable. This is important to me so it is just so great to hear that it is working. Getting rid of strain is on the hard side for most people. Keep working at it and you will get it right :)
@@singgeek but its hard for me to try... im a filipino sa alittle bit wrong to understand
I love how you explain things, it's really enlightening to me, I have one question, you suggest to record ourselves which is great and I love to do it but I feel like my dictaphone changes my voice because it filters many thing, which device do you recommend to have a recording as close as my voice as possible? I tried many things but haven't find something that records my voice without filtering and evening up the recording.
Thanks for lesson my throat were damaged and I lost ease above E5 and my veins in throat become bigger and infected but i have proper warm ups and rest for 8 or 9 hours how can i restore them and bring back with ease😭😭
I recommend really practice breathing exercises, MAKE SURE TO SING WITH YOUR DIAPHRAGM, when you breath in make sure your stomach goes out,if your chest goes out, you're doing it wrong. Proper breath support is crucial! As for improving your range, support and breathing for each note is super important and I recommend GRADUALLY going higher in your warmup scales with full breath support.
Forgot to mention vocal placement in the body is important too.
@@jacinda1787 thanks because i Never a good technique above E5
But great opinion tho
Thank you this helped me a lot I love watching these videos tbe ugh help me a lot and I mean a lot so thank you so much
thank you Singgeek!!
2:14 - it's the platysma muscle you're seeing in the neck when straining. They're not veins. The internal jugular is too deep and the external jugulars are far more lateral.
Helped a ton! Thank you :)
Wow thanks for the tip. Will give it a try. My influences are male rock ballad and it’s really tight throat style, It might take a while to relearn something new.
Ngl, i can't change the habit of trying to sound like my favorite artist
Can you do one showing us how to move from low note to a higher note or vice versa! I like how you use your hands to cover or separate your hearing from your sound. That actually helps. I can hear myself and how I sound. Sometimes when I sing I would cover one ear (dj style) and try to hear myself. But this helps. Thanks
Thank you for your tips there will help alot in my singing endeavours
Thanks for the tips. I believe all your voice tutorial is very effective.
I want to sing well and without strain so bad, but every time I start singing loud and proud I feel so much tension in my throat and even when I correct this it’s so easy to fall back into that seconds later. I guess I just need more practice 😂
Incredibly helpful video!

Are you a vocal coach by chance? And if yes are you taking students?
Can you pls give us more tips to stop straining?
I have a contralto singing voice. I would like to improve on this voice type and make it more colorful with resonance. Any videos or exercises you can recommend? This video is very informative. I think at one point I starined my voice trying to consistently hit the high notes of "You Got it All," by the Jets.
I been recording myself sing alot singing Hank Williams Johnny cash and other amazing artists I also play guitar as well the recordings sound good but sometimes when I'm singing Hank Williams I try to use way to much power while singing along I'll do these tips thank you
How can we distinguish between between a natural raspy voice and a strained voice?
Good info !!!! What do you do when your voice breaks in the middle of a song you are singing ???? Pls let me know . Thanks 😊😊
Hi Khabadaar, Thanks for your question. It might be helpful for you to work on mixing your chest and head voice. The voice often breaks when pushing to carry chest voice too high. Here is a video on the registers: th-cam.com/video/zM2GDKDLr8s/w-d-xo.html Hope it helps :)
