Title: Two songs that I sang
Post by: m2dis123 on June 08, 2016, 03:32:16 pm: I sang two songs and I'd like some feedback :D I haven't done singing in years now, ended it after my voice change at 12, but I've practiced a little on my own with no professional experience :D I also don't have any professional equipment, I recorded with my phone. I did Iron as my second song so it has a bit better quality due to improving it with Sony Vegas. So here they are:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MtfcxJh1_g (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MtfcxJh1_g) Woodkid - Iron
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RN5W89X3u68 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RN5W89X3u68) Rains of Castamere

PS! None of these songs is made by me, also wrote that in video descriptions. I only sang it.

Thanks! It's pretty hard to find good songs to sing. I can't sing most pop songs because they are ment to be sang higher than I can do without sounding very weird. Those two are probably the best fitting songs I've found so far.

Since you wanted for us to reccomend some songs for you to sing, how 'bout this one? It doesn't go that high, only a little in the ''can you feel the new day rising'' part. Here, this is the song. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkgDFgdkosM)

Post by: m2dis123 on June 09, 2016, 04:45:34 pm: Thanks for the support guys! I just checked out the song Coldblooded and it seems like something I could do. I've got to familiarise myself with it. I should start a Patreon or something to get myself a microphone :D

Post by: m2dis123 on June 23, 2016, 10:09:51 am: It seems I cannot find a instrumental version of this song. I could however just put this song with the singer and my voice together :D

Post by: WhiteLightHeart on June 23, 2016, 12:48:43 pm: What a cool voice you have~ I can't tell if you're more of a baritone or bass, but I can tell you've got an ear for the songs you're singing. c: And for a phone recording, the sound quality is very solid!
If I might offer some friendly feedback from a fellow musician, your timing was a bit off with the backtrack in Rains of Castamere. Practicing with a metronome could help establish a more firm beat, since that song in particular is less obvious about where its pulse is than the second track. And, focusing on your breathing and taking a more warm, full breath on an "Oohh" syllable before singing each phrase helps tremendously with stabilizing your pitch.

Keep singing, man! c: Do it every day, and keep making music~ Even if it is just a cover, it's a wonderful thing. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Thanks alot! This information is useful to me in many ways. It is good that a musician confirms what I heared was off. I did notice myself that the timing was off in certain places. It took me 10 minutes just to match up the music to my singing. There was also a problem, that I sang it to the karaoke version. It was a bit different than the real version so I had to improvise with my experience. I've never heared some of those places sang by someone else so it was kinda difficult.

I'm not very certain myself what type of voice I have. I like to think that it is mostly bass, but singing a bit higher as I did in Iron sounds better to me. That's why it is difficult to find fitting songs that I could do. Clearly I have too much testosterone to sing One Direction songs, huehue.

Since I graduated my current school, I get to do solo singing in the new one that I'm going to. So everyone should be prepared to listen some more refined singing during autumn/fall or a bit later.

Be sure to read the description!!

Sorry to cold, I sang it and all but I just couldn't find the fitting version to use the music.

Post by: Senrova on September 12, 2016, 05:22:41 pm: Your cover for Woodkid "Iron" impressed me. Your voice fitted well with the music. If your ambition is to be a singer you're gonna do great, always aim high!
