vocal practice
personally, i alwaes thought that everyone can sing well.
ya just need to be familiar with your voice
and know its capabilities and limitations.
no point practicing until your lungs and throat get sore.
ya wouldnt want to damage your vox box or anything.
when ya know it well enough, you can sing a genre
that compliments your voice.
but hehe, i what do i know. :wink:

I hate to make people feel down... but i think some people's voice sound better than others....
I believe there is such thing as vocal talent, since our voice is as much a physical element as our body. It's like saying, is there such thing as good looking people, and yeah, you look at the actors and actress, with nice shapes and good features, but then some will say everyone is beautiful, i would say, yeah!! beautiful in their own way, but not good looking....
So when it comes to voice, there are people who doesn't need too much vocal training, their voice quality is already good and get praises throughout. Then with some training, their voice gets better....
But there are those whose voice really cannot make it, everytime they sing, people criticise or laugh, some try not to laugh in front. Then people tell them their voice can actually be great if they go for proper training. Yes, their voice can improve with training, but to be great????
Can't blame the schools for thinking this way, they need money for their bread and butter right???

everyone CAN sing. IF they're able to use their diagphram and harness certain techniques.
it's the natural tone of your voice that determine who sounds / sings better, in the end.

For me I think that different voices are suited for different genres. If you have those nasal voice, you can sing country, gruff voice can sing rock, smooth voice can sing ballad... so the more important thing is to find out what suits your voice best, and work on that. Or even cooler, sing something that's not suited for you, and make that work!
hmm..my problem is that sometimes i will use my throat to sing unknowingly, only when i got sore throat then i realise...i felt that i dun hv the 'POWER' to sing using my my diapghram...like kind of falsetto to me...
and then my instructor said at the chorus part, i tend to sing too loud. But i'm juz trying to sing with my feelings wat....he said i hv to project my voice n move the mic away if i gg sing loud...

training and lessons will only take you half the way there... honestly. it's science?. somethings you just HAVE to HAVE to be a superior vocalist... you can be GOOD...but not ESPECIALLY AMAZING if you were not originally a good singer... somethings cant be taught... it's like someone training to be a good footballer, they can learn the skills and the technique, but if they are as slow as hell, speed cant be taught.. you must have it ...
