Hey Justin, I am a returning guitar player using your iPhone leasons app and am on module 9 now. Will you have any singing with guitar lessons on your app?
how did you post this comment 8 days ago when this video uploaded 1 day ago?
@@Jeb4100 Justin is a talented guy. He's also figured out time travel :-)

You’re just such a breath of fresh air mate, music for the rest of us
So many have quit because of purists.
You make it ok to be just ok
❤️❤️❤️
Well said. Purists, both teachers and students have discouraged more players than anything else. Its about the joy of playing and singing
Very true! We can train to be pretty good, but may start off not so good... Negative feedback can kill our desire to even try!
Being okay is how you get good. Purists either don't remember, are jealous of their ability, or suck.
I can’t sing very well, but I can’t just play a song without singing lol.
Nirvana and everlast. A lot of their songs work well enough for my voice to not send everything in earshot running
OMG, when you started the “quiet singing” and the “talk singing” I literally teared up a little. This is the advice I’ve been looking for. I wish I would have had this video 36 years ago. Thank you. ❤️
Thats such bulls***. People trolling you about your singing. Meanwhile youre giving high quality lessons of your lifes work for free. My favorite part if your lessons is when you sing the chord voicings.
lol welcome to youtube, there could be a 5 star professional who made millions, giving a lesson and there still gonna be ppl saying they suck and are doing it wrong
Pay no attention to the very few negative people who have nothing better to do. Huge amount of positive responses to read and are well earned. Justin is an absolute gem
Couldn't agree more.
Haters gonna hate
this is one of the better start to sing vids I have ever seen. and he is a good singer, yes comments are often attacking on any music 🎵🎶 or artistic videos. thanks for calling them out!!!!
Justin’s videos are like that good friend that you can sometimes lose touch with, but when you reconnect you remember why they are such a good friend. This was a helpful video. Thanks.
This man is a national treasure and we must protect him. 😇
The point at the end about confidence is sooooo valid, as is your earlier point about feeling comfortable. I used to “sing in my head” because I thought my voice was so bad, but then I realised I wasn’t playing the tune I was “singing”.
I’m a woodworker and I made a really nice guitar hanger that I was proud of, then, shortly afterwards we had a couple of very close friends over for dinner and they remarked on the guitar hanging on the wall. They asked if I would play something and I made all the excuses about singing, but they insisted and as they are good friends I decided I didn’t mind sounding like a clown - I knew they wouldn’t be too harsh on me, so I cracked out Streets of London and was both surprised and pleased when they all (including my wife) started clapping. I was happy that my friends were being kind to me, but then they asked me to sing another song! I was surprised, because I don’t think I would want to listen to me singing twice, but as I had the instrument in my hand I did Hotel California and got an even louder clap!
The point of this tale is that I know (and so do they) that I’ll never be a great singer, BUT, what I did was to share some joy and that was the biggest motivator to make me sing more often.
So, in summary (I know it’s a long post, sorry), I would say, find some songs you like, sing while you practice, play for friends and family and just be happy - happiness is what music is all about, surely? (unless you’re a Leonard Cohen fan, of course, lol).
This is an outstanding lesson. You have hit the nail on the head. I picked up the guitar a couple of years ago and went onto many TH-cam sites to learn the basics of guitar playing. Your tutorials are by far the best I have experienced - and there have been a lot - you are a born teacher. This singing tutorial is the best advice you have given. We are not all Pavarotti, but we all have a voice. I heard that Karen Carpenter had an extremely quiet singing voice and benefited from amplification. The world would have been a poorer place if she was told not to sing.
Did a youtube search and now I'm in love with those songs and her voice. Thank you for mentioning.
Hey Mick! You're exactly right about Karen Carpenter. Justin's comments about not straining/pushing or singing too loudly reminded me of an excerpt from a biography called "Little Girl Blue, The Life of Karen Carpenter". Karen was being driven to the studio with one of her friends and as she was warming up and singing in the car the friend was totally surprised how quiet her singing voice really was. It was mentioned in the book that Karen let the microphone do the work. It's a great read if you like the Carpenters.
"when you are learning a new skill, its completely normal to suck at it". TRUTH. Keep falling down and getting back up. Great video Justin!
I’ve been dealing w some serious depression for a long time and trying to learn guitar and sing helps me cope. I suck at both still but just watching your lessons honestly does give me hope. You’ve got a great character and refreshing honesty and directness that I love. I strive to be a little more that myself. Thank you.
Hang in there Shwen. I also find a lot of comfort in music and love Justin's videos. If you're having fun keep doing it, I also suck at both singing and playing but I don't care, it's fun. 🙂
I started playing just before I lost it with anxiety and depression. Guitar, even a few minutes a day was the only thing I could do and helped me immensely.
Stick with it and know that there's always light at the end of the tunnel. You will feel better.
Hi Justin, I have never commented before.Recently, I met my guitar hero by pure accident. In Melbourne, I attended the Tommy Emmanuel concert which was superb! The following morning I went for breakfast with my wife at a little restaurant near the threatre. We were seated right next to Tommy and a friend. I had a lovely exchange with him and I treasure the meeting. Your lessons are absolutely sensational!! Apart from your guitar talent and singing, your personality is a real gift. You explain thins so well and you are a champion for all us aspiring guitar players. From the bottom of my 72 year old heart, thanks mate!!
This is a wonderful lesson. You are one of the “demystifier”teachers that I really admire. You get down to students level and it shows your dedication as an educator. Thank you Justin.
My number 1 desire in learning guitar is not fast lead etc, but to be able to play and sing songs on acoustic to a decent standard. So I jumped on this!
I’ve always loved that you sing. Thanks Justin
So talented, yet so humble. Just an awesome human.
Exactly the lesson I was looking for - perfect!
Def noticed your singing improving over the years! Thanks Justin.
i m a singer for 30 yrs .. this is good advice .. I ve given vocal lessons .. The biggest thing is that when you sing , you need project ...obviously pitch is important ..
I love the honesty and great sense of humor! Youre the best!
This is just what I needed. Thanks Justin
Justin this is a wonderful and encouraging lesson. I'm persisting with learning to sing along to my guitar tunes and this video helps on so many levels. You have such a genuine helpful character, simply one of the brightest stars in the universe of the internet!
Your singing really improved a lot over the last years, good job
Justin I am so grateful for your videos. You have made a tremendous difference for me. Now you’ve taken it to a whole other level. Proper singing has been extremely difficult for me. This video has blown up my impression of what signing could be if I stop straining to reach a note the way I hear it. I’m excited to work with these exercises. So grateful for who you are and your commitment to teaching and improving.
I wish I could meet Justin in person one day, because, man, do I wanna hug this dude.
Have been looking for something like this for a looooooong time! Thank you Justin!
I've found that over time, the vocal lessons do become part of you and work their magic.And your true voice comes through.Minus all that posture and ' Musical Show' tone.
You are great, Justin.Mind-boggling how much help you have given to so many !Thanks
Just brilliant!
The best guitar teacher on TH-cam.
Helpful lesson Justin. I’m 74 years . I usually sing “in my head” when I play, but of course that’s not my own voice. I found the singy / talky in a low voice method very helpful.
Yeah- me too. 70 years old.
Yeah. Me too. I am only 60 years old.😀
Me too. I'm 67, same thing. I took advice from another comment about tuning down a full step, and with my singy/talky voice, I'm having a lot of fun with it. If you try it, Sixteen Tons and Wellerman are fun. Thanks.
I'm turning 60 today and just about 5 years ago I decided to learn play guitar and sing from cero today after those years I'm still feel lost but I just want to keep going my main motivation is retirement and be able to an joy time with music I have learn basic cords but having difficulties strumming make it sound like music to my ears Singing since I have no idea what is my range I'm just jumping from all over I'm part a singing choir in my church but I want more 80 percent at list
Great stuff man. I agree that confidence is crucial.
Thanks Justin, you are a wonderful teacher and a gifted communicator 🙏
Yes! Please do a follow up. Thank you, Justin!
Still the best singing lesson for guitarists on youtube. Thank you mate!
Love this guy! He's unpretentious, and such a natural teacher with whom you can easily follow and learn. ❤❤❤
Thanks Justin! You have the most welcoming and accessible music lessons out there. I started with your guitar lessons 10 years ago and I've always wanted to sing while I play.
❤️❤️ My absolute most encouraging teacher. Thank you.
You’re the best Justin! Thank you! And I’ve always enjoyed your singing.
Been waiting for a video like this forever, Thanks Justin!
Perfect timing again! One thing I’ve noticed about your singing is that you’ve really nailed your Neil Young tone. One of my favorites. ✌🏻🇺🇸
God bless you Justin! Keep up this wonderful work.
I love your tutorials and really appreciate them. I never thought your vocals ‘sucked’ and I appreciate that you always sing with enthusiasm and ❤
This is amazing, thank you so much!
You put so much careful thought into all of your lessons. Another great one. Thanks Justin!
You are such a fun and down to earth teacher.. great to listen to. Cheers
Wow! There is not too many people talking about finding your own voice. Thanks, great tips!!
This is very helpful and encouraging - thank you, Justin!
Keep going man! Your singing is a helpful part of your guitar lessons.
You are my favorite online guitar teacher and I have noticed a marked improvement in your singing. Thanks for sharing these tips, they obviously worked for you!
Thanks for this, I have to say, I super appreciate your singing in your tutorials.
Thanks so much! I always find your honest and straightforward approach to teaching SO helpful!
This is wonderful. I’ll implement them. Please do a sequel!
Thanks Justin! You've been such a great help in my guitar journey and now my vocal journey. Keep it up pal!
I found holding the back of the guitar close to my chest and feeling the vibrations really helped me.
You're the best guitar teacher on TH-cam. Thanks for all of the lessons!
Nice lesson. Not enough of this sort of thing out there for guitar students who would like to begin singing a bit.
Thank you for another wonderful lesson, Justin. You're a terrific teacher and your desire to help your audience improve comes through strong.
Thank you. You have given me some inspiration to give it another go.
Thanks so much Justin. You’re a natural!
You are fantastic,Justin! I have been learning similar stuff on my own...less is usually more with singing.
just started to start to sing while playing so this is awsome helpfull thank you
You make so much sense, thanks excellent instructions
I was just thinking last week how much your singing has improved. Happy for you because you’ve become a good singer.
I can't tell you how much this video helped me. Thank you so much. Please do a sequel video
Another excellent video Justin. Thank you.
Keep on singing! I especially like when you sing the chord names in song tutorials, it is both useful and fun
Thanks Justin, very helpful!
Great tutorial Justin. What I like about your videos, is that you always come across as genuinely wanting to help people. You have a warm personable style and that allows people to be able to really understand what you are saying. In that way, you are a true communicator. Keep up the good work.
Justin thank you for your encouragement concerning singing it struck a chord with me. All the best from Vienna, Austria
Thanks, Justin. Absolutely one of the best lessons I have found. Changed my whole thought process for learning to sing better.
Fabulous. I wish I could sing and this lesson will get me started.
Helpful as always, thank you, Justin!
How do you inspire people? Prove you share or have shared in their struggles. Kudos to you, sir, for doing just that. You're already helping teach me to play the guitar; now you might start teaching me to sing as well!
Amazing lesson. Thank you for teaching us new things everyday!
I can't sing but your ideas around hitting the right pitch, even in a soft voice, are really useful and I might even give it a go. Thanks Justin!
I been watching your videos for at least 10 years and your singing has improved immensely...I'm am sincerely surprised how much you have improved! Well done!
You’re such a lovely guy, thanks so much for being so encouraging and sharing all this.
Great information packed in here. Just what I needed right now. Thank you!
You’re a champ in my book. Thank you for the great lessons and breakdown of many songs.Your patience and explanations make you the best teacher on TH-cam.
Great vid Justin, I’m no singer, but any improvement I’ve made was directly due to recording and listening back! Thanks for all the tips

Thank you Justin. Picked up guitar this last few months and subscribed to your beginner course. I’m progressing great thanks to you. Don’t stop buddy you’re making a lot of people very happy 🎶🤙
As I've learned from all your lessons, I absorb bits and pieces from all of them, and they all represent forward movement and improvement. You're an excellent teacher. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent!
I been feeling a bit stuck lately but this has really helped me out of a rut, thank you : )
Super helpful lesson I appreciate the in depth explanation of each point. I want to say having you singing along in the lessons has been super helpful, I’m so happy that you were able to silence the criticism and go for it because it makes the lessons so much better
This was the most helpful video for me. I would love more in this singing vein. Thanks Justin!
Thank you Justin! This was one of your best videos and I’ve been following your channel for years. I really related to this. You have a great voice!
Thanks for doing this video. I’m going to start singing notes on a scale to refine singing the correct pitch.
Really good lesson, just what I needed to get me to start singing again
