It's still not perfect but this is about 2 weeks worth of practise.

Hard things = big range lots of different tones, switching gears Talk, Chest, Call, Head etc, etc etc,

    @streeter,

    Good job, mate.

    Interesting use of head voice, then later belting the same notes.

    A couple of places are just a skoshe flat (A4's) but still sounding quite good overall.

    Yeah, I think that's what makes it hard. Jeff Buckley does that a lot as well.

    My Intonation struggles on the Oo and Oh Vowels at and Above G4. Something I need to work on. Not so Much the notes, Just the perception of the notes in my head... if that makes sense.

    Yeah.  If you're aware of it when it's happening, then you can kind of adjust those notes to be comfortable, but with a slight bias that moves them slightly in the "sharp" pitch direction, away from the "flat" direction.  When that gets centered properly, that's a part of placement that you can memorize for that note to help you be "in" that note more fully.  Sometimes part of that feeling is a little more of a certain amount of support.

    Thanks man. Myles was the first guy that I heard that made me want to get voice lessons. 8 years hiatus and 2 vocal instructors later I finally ended up here. Haha. @iamwill

    At last @streeter one of your demos played for me! Man i love this song so much, and your voice sounds great, just pitchy in a couple of spots. Did you ever do more work on this song?

    @KaiEllis Nah, man sorry. this was like 2 years ago. but that page should have other stuff on it

    It did indeed! Some great stuff on there. Was sad when Livin On a Prayer cut off after the first chorus :smile:

    Would love to listen to your work on Steve Perry. Could you tell me the username those tracks are under?

    @streeter this was really good... about time i put something up... you've inspired me
  • Love Myles Kennedy, especially the acoustic stuff with Slash.
    Your voice has a really nice tone, and sounds really smooth. I hope I can get to that point.
    Sounds good!

    Peace, Tony
