I'm the worship leader at my church, and lately I have noticed my voice is slowly fading away, and I'm losing my voice... sooooo... I realized that I need to figure out how to avoid this roblem! Lol. You definitely have helped me out!! THANK YOU so much! God Bless YOU.

Nice job! Voice teacher of 30+ years here. Appreciate you sharing and showing examples. "A singer is as good as the breath they take, then how they manage it."
This is one of my biggest problems. I get scared of high notes and always strain or miss it. Thank you. This is the first day of actually seeking real help. As I am just starting to perform other than church or karaoke. Thank you!❤
Nice job! Voice teacher of 30+ years here. Appreciate you sharing and showing examples. "A singer is as good as the breath they take, then how they manage it."
This fundamentally changes my understanding of how the voice works. I did not realize that vocal strain is more than and often is outside the voice box. The way I learned to use my voice was with all the focus in my throat on producing sound because that’s where the sound is actually made. But I had to relearn how use my voice to remove that strain, but it seems I have only moved the strain to my core instead of training to remove the strain entirely. This video has taught me more than any teacher or tutor has ever taught me about how to produce vocal sounds without hurting myself. Thank you
I really wanna thank you Matt. I'm currently working on becoming a singer. My cousin is actually a vocal coach and she says she would love to help me sing. But she hasn't been able to see me due to other issues. I've been watching you since 2020 and it's 2023. Thanks to you, I can belt, do whistle notes, and somehow hit an A6, and I'm 14. Thank you for everything

Just found you! First night after 3yrs singing with a choral group. As a soprano my thought was fighting with me and Handel was an accomplis! You helped. Thanks!
This is by far the most helpful lesson I’ve found on TH-cam and the fact that you’re not even charging really makes a difference and the urge to even invest. This is really great. Thank you so much for this video.
Hey. My local Theater is doing Newsies and I’m auditioning for Kathrine. If you don’t know who she is or what the musical is, in her solo she has to belt a high E. So I have been bing watching your videos to work up to that. It’s really helping! You’re AMZING
I have watched dozens and dozens of videos on how to get rid of vocal strain or tension. And nothing has worked. But your video literally changed EVERYTHING! You made it very easy and simple to understand, and now i don't tense when im singing! 😃 Thank you so so so much!
Oh good LORD! One time through that video made HUGE difference. That was amazing. Immediately before this video I did 3 embarrassing runs through of Drops of Jupiter, and immediately after, it was a performance I was proud of! Thank you.
Joined a band 6 months ago and have averaged 4-9 sets a weekend. This is the first time my muscles are exhausted. Now keep in mind I’m not the lead but still sing 60-70% of the set and these exercises really hit all the sore spots. Great video thank you for the exercises. Definitely will be using them all week to shape up and last the rest of the busy season 👍
I decided to learn to sing professionally so thats how I found your videos. What you teach helps my overall body tension and communication. My neck and jaw pain is less too. Your videos have been uplifting for my mental health too. So wonderful and positive, thank you.
I just subscribed. I took voice lessons when I was 19, I am 45. I have an event coming up to sing in two weeks so I want to practice but not strain. My vocal teacher said I am high soprano, but I tend to struggle on the lower notes. So I appreciate this video so much!
yes I agree with the tongue tension!! Probably my biggest problem especially when singing high operatic notes as well as high belts! I liked the "ng" neutral exercise to start with!
This is incredible I just found your video and it helped me so much, I’ve been struggling with straining and when I sang my song after following your video I almost scared myself with how good I sounded compared to before. THANK 👏🏼YOU👏🏼💕
Literally SO helpful, dude!!! I was so worried about strain and at the same time so insecure about what it really means and how to avoid it. Thanks a lot :)
Man you rock! You explain everything so clear. It almost seems easy. Can't wait to start. (Although the lip thrill itself fysically seems impossible to perform ) Thank you so much!! 🙏🏻
@@ramseyvoicestudio hahaha. It does. I tried during my 1,5 hours drive to my parents (alone in the car, no embarrassing moments...) And I tried a little too long and got a little too dizzy 😆
Thank you for helping me add strength and elegance to my voice. I have a higher range now than I did in my 20s and I’ve not been practising. However, l won’t take it for granted anymore!
This is exactly what I needed! I’m having a performance in a few weeks and during a rehearsal today I almost strained my vocals. Your channel is a treasure!! Thank you.
I always thought the tounge moving around was used to help push to higher and lower notes. Making me rethink everything. And its alot simpler than I thought
Thanks for the advice! I'm trying to eliminate strain when singing in my upper register and I've found that the way I try and do it has simply made it worse. This is great!
I am a language therapist so having a good sounding voice is essential. I am working with a voice therapist and laryngologist. I had Covid about a year ago and that’s what my voice problem started and then it started getting better this past April and then I got sick again with some sort of upper respiratory problem and went back to having difficulties with the raspiness again when I talk. Would love any pointers to have a speedy recovery and get this problem permanently fixed.
leaving a comment to boost viewership, hope this reaches more people because what youre doing is super helpful! thank you for taking the time to teach us :)
I liked this because he's free, passionate and genius in musical matters ..... I was struggling to find a vocal trainer to stick to and not wasting my energy & time in searching. Lemme be stable and develop my fkn voice
You actually helped my voice omg!! I was wondering why after singing 2 songs my voice is already in pain. I didn’t realise I was straining because the note sounded perfectly fine! Thank you!😊
As a beginner singer , I knew I wanted to get better but I didn't knew what defines a good singer . Please make a vedio on what defines a good singer alone so that we know our goals .
I have a thyroid problem and when singing my voice gets course like or twitches. I really love to sing indian karaoke. I speak only English and dont even understand hindi. I grew up with with indian songs. I catches this faster than English songs. You are so awesome n blessed. Taking lessons from you now. Thanks bro.
Sir, before watching this video I have been practicing the other tutorials of hitting high notes. But the next day, my voice got strained and I can't sing anymore, on that day. Then I understood, nothing should be done beyond the limit. This video really helped me, to know more about the science behind voice.
Great video. Thank you. Your advise has helped me hit some higher notes whilst recording my own song. I was straining to hit one line and now it sounds great.
Just joined a Barber Shop choir and have been allocated to the Lead section. This is great because quite often I know the songs having sung them when they were on teh radio or similar. But, I cannot get the high A (interestingly that was the first note you demonstrated 😂). I worry that I will never be able to achieve it, so these exercises I hope will help.👍👍😉
Great music channel! I also support the request of several people and I also suggest making a video about Viki Gabor. I am delighted with her voice. I also encourage you to see her other music videos, such as: "Superhero", "Time", "Ramię w Ramię", etc.
This is great info. I sing in a band that has chosen some really challenging songs to spice up our set list. I put these lessons into practice and within a couple of hours I could notice less strain and more ease of range. I'm going to record myself tomorrow and compare it to another recording in three weeks.
I noticed a big difference right away, today, as I watched this. I'm going into opera (baritone here) and I was getting tired of straining. But most of my strain comes from trying to resonate/project my voice.
I am happy to watch your music channel. If I can suggest something, I think it is worth making a video about the very talented young singer Viki Gabor. Has some great singles and music videos on YT. Maybe you will see?
Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into your videos! I'm so glad I found your channel. Keep up the tremendous work you are doing, it is helping me a lot and I'm sure it helps lots of people too. Thank you again!
i know you wont notice me but you really want to help singers, you are giving without taking or expecting something, you deserve a million

Aw thanks Ryan!
yes I agree with the tongue tension!! Probably my biggest problem especially when singing high operatic notes as well as high belts! I liked the "ng" neutral exercise to start with!
Yes Cinderella, tongue tension is so common, especially on high notes!
You are soo amazing...thanks a lot..please can we share contact so you help me more

@@ramseyvoicestudio hahaha. It does. I tried during my 1,5 hours drive to my parents (alone in the car, no embarrassing moments...) And I tried a little too long and got a little too dizzy 😆
Bravo Matt! very helpful. I finally understand how to access my mixed voice instead of moving directly to falsetto. Bravo
I can’t keep that lip trill going for long.
The most helpful tip in this video is imagining that I’m on top of a note. Thanks!
Thank you for helping me add strength and elegance to my voice.
I have a higher range now than I did in my 20s and I’ve not been

You say sing it 'like you're english' - me sat in my house in wiltshire with a cup of tea while it's raining outside
Already got that covered
me starting where the males start at bc the one for ladies are too high: 🙈
you can use that and build into the higher register if you want to
Sameee!!😂so glad I'm not alone
@@ramseyvoicestudio Sir, is it right for a woman to sing in the corresponding higher octaves of male register, to master high notes?
I want you to make a video, teaching us how to open up our vocal cords and how to thicken them!
