Hmm... it sounds like you're using a lot of head voice here. I don't know but maybe that's the way it's sung? Though most sentences sound pretty shakey . If you sing in public... there's always gonna be haters, no matter how good you are . Though I'd say needs more work... IMO.

thanks kokonut

I think there is still work that can be done on the vocals, however - i do think you could perform that in public without concern.
Personally thought you did a good job.

I think the two guys above me are not giving you enough credit here. I think that sounds awesome! 

You defiantly get away with in public. 

mivison

Thanks Chris

Kokonuht

Well I just listened to it again... It's pretty good My criticism still stands though But yeah XD. 

Btw, do you do exercises for vibrato?

Mike,

I really like the sound of your voice.  You have a nice vibrato and the song works well for you.

Thanks all. I'm just testing new waters. I have never sang a song that high in public. Before KTVA i could not sing that high
@kokonut. I don't practice vibrato. When it happens it happens.

Kokonuht

Hey mivison! I just noticed Ken did a cover of this song! Check it out!

mivison

thats where i got the idea to do it . cool!
koko, i heard that you did a michael jackson song with ken. did you record it, if so can you post it?

Kokonuht

Haha yeah I did... I reached those high notes but I don't like the tone of my voice... still needs working on. Where did you hear that from btw o_o. Maybe I'll make a demo of it !

mivison

the webinar Saturday. ken was talking about you. you are famous! 

Kokonuht

Holy crap! I just heard it! Hahaha! It was amazing how I could reach those notes but I just think I sound weird... maybe I have a too high of expectation of myself or maybe it's because I speak English with my asian slang haha! That made my day Ken is great haha! I agree with Ken that it doesn't sound amazing though. It sounds weird to me. I still have a long way to go

I'll consider doing the demo but I'm gonna get super busy starting tomorrow x_x" ~

Yes, definitely good enough to sing in public. I hope you do.

mivison

thanks dingo

Hi Mike,

I think you are doing a great job.

I'd like to hear you "dig in" a little more with confidence.

You can clearly hear the technique working for you (this is not an easy song to sing).

Some of it sounds stiff like you are "thinking" about it too hard.

Enjoy the song and give us more. Lean into it a little more.

Try to treat it a little more soul than paint by numbers of what you know "technically" to be true and what your heart wants to sing

Thanks ken for the input! i plan on booking an hour with you soon so that you can help me   with these things. i want to get the vowel mods and scales better first.

thx bob for the smile!

PeteMurphy

I really like it. I think that the backing harmonies are great too! Very unexpected when they came in but you did a great job.

mivison

thanks pete.
as for the backing singers, i sang with a karaoke track i got off amazon.com. so i can take no credit. i'm going to record this again soon to see if i've improved.

@mivision....its a little pitchy at times, but this cover is frickin awesome...you are da man, your voice works for this song
