    I haven’t heard the original in awhile so I can’t speak to nuances but I love that song and you’ve captured the billy Joel sound. A great song for your voice. Nice work piano man!!!

    I don't think I have listened to your singing before but I thought this was great. Hit all the notes nice and full. I'm still at the beginning of the program myself (and haven't had time to work on it in weeks) but I can hear your technique in solid and your vocals are strong.

    @sjonrokz4u @Vocality @LumiMoon thanks for your feedback.

    @LumiMoon keep at it, try to stay consistent in your practice. And try to push through the discouragement, which will definitely come at times.

    This was on point! Kept it well together, just enough chest without pushing and lots of resonance. Nice vowels as well. It's the level I would expect from a public singer 🙂

    Great singing and you have nice tone. Did you play this yourself by any change or use midi? There is too much bass on the piano because it gets distorted. Also when piano and voice has very different sounding reverb, the result is unnatural. Anyway great job on singing, and if you played it you played excellent :smile:

    @DogMeat @Klaus_T thanks for your feedback!

    Yes I play everything on piano myself in real time, no MIDI or pre programming. I'm 43 years old and been playing piano since I was 7. Just started singing 2 years ago though when I started Ken's course. My plan is to be my own "piano bar" player at local establishments. I'm building a set list of 37 songs arranged on piano.

    Great stuff @Michael4000 . Your playing is impressive. Just work a bit on recording/mixing and you get very nice sounding recordings.

    @Michael4000 - That was smooth and had a nice vibe I could totally sit in a bar sipping a glass of wine and totally enjoy you! I love the keys.
