Hi Pranav Giri, This is a very common issue. Believe me you are not alone :) I recommend that you work on mastering your head voice and then practice mixing some head voice into your chest voice when you sing higher. I made a video on head and chest voice as well as a track to help practice mixing chest and head voice. Here they are: Head/chest voice video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/rIFmqaaEdK_YaNY.html Practice track: kzread.info/dash/bejne/c3d7qseiZNrMf9Y.html Hope that helps :)

Truth is, its all about placement. Most of the the time a lyric just cant do what a dramatic can do easily. That goes vice versa. You can achieve the same notes but you'll have to approach it differently. Most importantly as said in the video, don't rely mostly on your throat. Use your full chest cavity, utilize your whole face to distribute the tension.

I was so ashamed to record myself singing because I hated my voice. Then I started to do it and in the beginning some phases in almost every song was a disaster, but I kept and it was so good, because I started to understand my voice better.

I used to think ALL singers were born blessed, until I saw vocal coach videos and realised my voice got 20-30% better by breathing correctly, not a great singer but hoping to be able to sing for my cat soon.

I hit a high note for the first time and now my throat hurts a lot

how did you do it? and in what sense? whistle note? belted high note? head voice? the best way i do a high note is i imagine the sound coming from the diagram, up my spine and coming out of my mouth, when you do high notes your mouth needs to be open, usually when i do high notes my mouth looks like this, 😬 (but the teeth aren't like that) i hope that helped some??😭

Hi Roxanne MCV, Thank you for sharing your story, I'm sorry to hear that has happened to you. I've worked with singers before who has experienced similar issues. I recommend the you do three things. 1st go see an ENT to make sure it is not something more serious than a lack of training affecting your voice. 2nd, start by doing gentle exercises when you resume your training. Lip trills and slides are good starters. It is like if you used to run a lot but then took a break. If you start by running a marathon it is too much. The same goes for your voice. 3rd, what is affecting your voice might also be that you have gained some different singing habits over the years. It is common to develop tension without noticing it. I've seen good progress with my students who go back and sing old songs that they used to sing because it triggers their previous way of singing. So try and practice with some of your older songs and see if it makes a difference. I hope this helps. Please let me know how it goes :)

I have this issue. First of all a healthy immune system and plenty of the 90 Essential Nutrients including the EFAs from fish oil, krill oil, avocado, and including enough vitamin D, Vitamin C, Zinc, and iodine, also DMG, Quercitin and MAC can help. But beyond all that, a singers secret is to mix cayenne pepper, honey and vinegar, and gargle with that. You could use balsamic vinegar with that mixture. Might even be brave and use the extra hot cayenne pepper ground. Just gargling with it, so it should be fine, this cuts the phlegm. Good Turmeric product might not hurt either, like Bodease

I tried many things but haven't find something that records my voice without filtering and evening up the recording.

@singgeek

5 жыл бұрын

Hi neymar0704, Thanks for your question. The cause of a raspy voice can be connected to different things. If you find your voice to be very raspy, I would suggest that you start by seeing an ENT (ear nose throat doctor). They will be able to look at your vocal folds to see if there is anything going on with your voice anatomically that might be hindering it from producing sound freely. I know it is not the most fun answer but my number one priority is to make sure we keep your voice safe so before you start doing any exercises I recommend that you get your voice checked out by a specialist. If your voice looks fine then I suggest you do some exercises to balance the sound production in your vocal folds. Lip trills are really helpful in connecting your voice with your breath support. I made a video on lip trills here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mKuCstJmgraaebw.html Once you are able to trill your lips freely, try starting a sound by trilling your lips and then open your mouth to finish the note on an "ah" sound. This should naturally lead you to produce that sound with a good breath pressure in your voice. Let me know how it goes and please don't hesitate to ask follow up questions :)

Hi Kristine Li, Thanks for sharing your experience. This is common and you can learn to not strain. The trick is, that you have to get used to producing sound differently than you are used to, as you might know habits can be broken. I recommend you try out these two videos to help you experience vocalising without straining. 1. The exercise in this video lets you experience your voice as it sounds to everyone else. Hearing your voice in this way can help you realize that you do not need as much effort as you are used to in order to make sound: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Yq1_r8SLmbLdo9o.html 2. I also recommend you connect your breath support to your voice. Doing lip trills can help you with this. Here is a video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mKuCstJmgraaebw.html I hope this helps. If you have any other questions please ask me again. I used to experience straining when I first started singing and I am very passionate about helping others in the same boat :)

Hi . It is really worthy to listen to you. I have undergone a vocal polyp removal , now I realised, its due to vocal strain . I am finding difficulty whenever I sing high pitch notes. I will start practicing on different exercises you have suggested.

I was in chorus 10 years and no body told me that you can hurt your vocal cords my music teachers never told us about this I lost my voice for 3 weeks because I was holding a very high note for a long time and I never knew this could happen I heard a pop and went to ent doctor it was the worst time of my life it was awful so thank you for teaching people ❤️🎶

Oh. My. Word..... So I sing lead in our church's worship team and THIS is what I deal with AAAALLLL the time and I haven't had a clue on how to explain it to my peers!!! I will be sharing this!

3:14 “you’re voice…falling out effortlessly!”. This is the best advice on KZread! I’m a piano singer, who has long fought with my tendency to push…due in part to trying to match the volume of the piano. I’ve tried to “sing less” or telling myself to “stop pushing”, but that just doesn’t stop me from doing it. This mental imagery about the words just falling out, though, simply works for me…in a big way. I guess we all have different images that work for us. After thinking about it this way, my voice becomes so much freer when I sing. I find that I’m no longer locked into anyone specific configuration for the duration of a phrase. I can change that configuration midway through. And as an unexpected bonus, I’m actually louder! Thank you for this!

Wow thanks for the tip. Will give it a try. My influences are male rock ballad and it’s really tight throat style, It might take a while to relearn something new.

Ur eye makeup is 😍😍

Well when IU was doin a concert in my country the audience couldn't stop screaming so loud that IU and her band couldn't even her hear voice but she still did a great job but I wouldn't blame my countrymen cuz they waited for her for so long but in the end the audience just sang with her it was beautiful

Can you do one showing us how to move from low note to a higher note or vice versa! I like how you use your hands to cover or separate your hearing from your sound. That actually helps. I can hear myself and how I sound. Sometimes when I sing I would cover one ear (dj style) and try to hear myself. But this helps. Thanks

Pretty late to discover this video! thanks for the tips! Although I've heard that veins are not always a sign of strain. When you try to belt, pressure needs to be built up in the throat, air is being retained, so that is why veins pop up sometimes. Please correct me if I am wrong! Thanks again!

What I now know is that we have to do vocal exercises before singing, and that HAS helped me a lot. However, I don't understand about things like use your diaphram to sing and which part to sing, or something

Good point in terms of looking in the mirror / window

Hi Singgeek, and thanks for another wonderful video! On good days I can sing an E5. It sounds good and feels good in every way except that I can feel that I am using the muscles in my throat to kind of "muscle the pitch up there" if you know what I mean.. Lower, say at A4, it is as though I can't even feel that I have those muscles in my throat. I feel the pitch is held up by my support. So I have 2 questions for you: 1) Should I limit my range only to those notes that do not require the help of throat muscles? 2) Should I figure out how to sing an E5 without strain in my vocal cords? Thanks for your time in reading this!

Oh ! It was helpful for me....

I totally forgot to try that move that looks silly as you said! I remember seein a different video about it being a way to listen to your actual voice vs what you think your voice sounds like without checking it with covering the front of them because of the extra vibrations caused by it.

I still have to teach if I am sick or tired and I wonder if I am causing damage to my voice. I saw a recording of myself about from about 1 year ago and my speaking voice sounds deeper and more raspy. I am not sure to protect or heal my voice when rest is often not an option.
