Nearly every vocalist wants to be able to sing higher without straining. There's also this other REALLY common problem that plagues a lot of people... Perhaps you can relate: Many great songs in their original key seem to be just outside your range. They are consistently too high... UGG.
Most singers just settle for lowering the key and calling it good. Go ahead. Throw in the towel... NO!! There is a better way! (Actually lots of better ways)
This video contains a very simple "exercise" that will help you instantly sing higher without strain and with more freedom.

    David Byrne of Talking Heads and Kevin Rowland of Dexy's Midnight Runners sing in almost pure dog yelp mode although a bit more towards 'uh' than the 'ih' vowel. They don't modify it towards the scream thing you are doing here on the Alanis cover, so while quirky, it can be used as is.

    Yep, there are vocal efficiencies to be learned directly from the source, millions of years of evolution and training~ Another video from a few years ago said that "oooOOOwww" helps with high notes. There are lots of supportive sounds that park the voice in a higher position that let you stay there~

    I think thats the type of mixed voice guys like Rob Halford uses, went and listened to Painkiller from Judas Priest and it sounds very much alike what youre doing with that yep high mix like its coming from the area above your nose, it really sounds like those old rocker guys from the 80s, i think its also easier to add distortion too because of the more forward nature of the sound

    That's so helpful! damn I can't figure out one thing. When I sing high notes of some rock songs, for example I can't hit them notes in Foo Fighters songs, for example the chorus of "This is a Call", even when I try to hit something, my voice sounds too thin whereas Dave sounds like he is in his regular chest deep voice. I always wondered is there a way to enlarge formants without sounding too thin in the high register, cus sometimes it feels like it's a natural born thing and u gotta accept it.

  • @methodofkolishin

    Would really love that myself! Although, if it helps in the meantime- Ville tends to wittingly use head-voice to primarily nail his highs. In more extreme cases (the bridge and final chorus of Disarm Me, Bleed Well. etc.) he tends to do a mixed-voice scream. You'll notice he is really selective on where he places everything lyrically (similar to Jonny Craig's approach on belting) :D
