You guys requested some Michael Jackson.
I tried my best to get close to his tone, kind of tried to get myself in there too.
Hope you enjoy!

    Awesome Diego! One of my favorite Michael Jackson songs and you 100% did it justice. Another great recording. Where did you get your backing track? Is that you doing the backing vocals?

    My only suggestion is for you to post a video of yourself singing next time so we can see you. Maybe we can all learn something from your technique by seeing you.

    He even got the trademark Michael Jackson "hiccups"

    You left out that dramatic "make that change" line at the end though LOL

    Hi @Diego,

    this is my favorite Jacko song. And man, I am absolutely impressed how you did it. And I agree with @victortang, a lot of nice Diego in there. Well done, well done. It is amazing how much you improved in tone and power in your voice in that short period of time. I can't imagine where you will be in 1 year. Let us see.

    @Diego, amazing, I knew Michael would be a good match for your voice, but I wasn't expecting it to sound THAT GOOD. what the Doc said, keep doing this and you will get far!

    @Diego

    Wow this is so close to the original, really really good performance and pitch spot on with great tone true to the original artist. Diego how long have you been singing for including before you started the course?

    @doc_ramadani Thank you so much Doc! I've been practicing non stop for days so It was worth it!
  • DiegoDiego Moderator, 2.0 PRO, 3.0 Streaming Posts: 1,157
    @highmtn Thank you so much Bob!
    @Klaus_T I can sort of match Michaels soft tone. Still have to work on it overall. Thank you so much for listening.
  • DiegoDiego Moderator, 2.0 PRO, 3.0 Streaming Posts: 1,157
    @Vocality Thank you George!
    I've been singing in total for about 5 years

    @Ken Tamplin
    I can't believe it! The man himself. This made my day. Thank you so much! Your course has helped me in so many ways! I'm practicing on getting a more rock and heavy sound to add some versatility.

    @Furious_Phil Thank you so much Phillip! Glad you enjoyed it.

    Hi @Diego,

    WOW, the Boss himself checked in. And for good reason: Diego, this was really awesome. I feel so happy for you. I wish you only the best of the good.

    And ... how about You and Me doing a collaborative demo? - You: Freddy, Me: David. - I guess, you know that we should not put us "Under Pressure". :D

    @Diego

    Yep you know your onto great things when Ken posts, can only congratulate you with your hard work paying off big time.

    Heard alot of great covers what about your own song?

    George
  • DiegoDiego Moderator, 2.0 PRO, 3.0 Streaming Posts: 1,157
    @doc_ramadani Thank you so much doc! I would love to do under pressure with you. Tell me how we are going to do this.
  • DiegoDiego Moderator, 2.0 PRO, 3.0 Streaming Posts: 1,157
    @Vocality Thank you! It's been a long way.
    My songs will be hopefully coming soon.

    Diego what do you think of my suggestion about videoing your next performance? I don't think any of us has seen what you look like and it would be nice to finally put a face to the voice that has been aweing us all. It's like we're all judges on the show The Voice but we never get to turn our chairs LOL. I have a feeling you are going to have to start getting used to being on camera anyway, the way you are singing.

    Guys maybe is really Freddie Mercury reincarnated like his profile picture.

    @doc_ramadani speaking of that, what happened to the thumbnail of our profile picture appearing next to our comments? Any way we can get that back? I think it personalizes this forum a little more.
  • doc_ramadanidoc_ramadani Administrator, 2.0 PRO, Facility Management Posts: 3,978
    @Michael4000: you mean on mobile devices? - The problem is that it costs a lot of space. Maybe I can put a smaller profile picture. I will try it on the staging site. I will come back to you on that.
  • Michael4000Michael4000 STREAMING PRO Posts: 1,028
    @doc_ramadani don't go crazy with it. If it is too much work just leave it as it is. The new site is great

    Hi @Michael4000, thanks for caring - but it is no problem. I will have a look on that. You should have the best user experience you can get. And if it is possible I will do it. Doc

    You did a great job Diego, i am happy for you! One of the best things i like about your uploads, is the steady growth of your voice and abilities. You keep on improving, and this is your best yet as far as i heard. I'm not on the forum much these days, but i just had to check this one out when i saw the song title. You have come a long way man, keep on going, there is no stopping you. You are sounding smoother as well on this upload.

    All the best,

    Ben

    @bentk Thank you so much man!
    Glad you are see improvement. And I'll continue to improve.
    Thanks for the feedback.

    @Diego I'm happy seeing your improvement. How many hours did you practice a day(higher amount that you practiced in a day)?
