I've always loved this song but it’s honestly intimidating to sing.

Tried to keep it raw with no effects, just wanted to see how it comes across.

hi! singing is my biggest passion and always has been. i’ve only done about a year of private vocal coaching back when i was 14 (20 now) and would like some advice on how i could fix tension in my voice.

most of the time im able to ease tension and strain, but i do go through periods where i just can’t find the proper healthy placement to allow my voice to sustain a supported higher note (especially as im an alto and my voice naturally rests lower).

this vid was recorded through one of those times where i felt my voice was unsupported, and i genuinely was really struggling 🥲. i feel embarrassed to post this, but i do know that it would be beneficial to ask for help so i can work on this issue.

i have a habit of holding a lot of tension in my tongue, which has frustrated me so deeply over the years. if you have any tips to share on fixing that please let me know!!!!

I am a decent musician but want to learn how to sing as well. I have zero experience/training, and while I know that some people can get better with practice, that's not true for everyone. I know I obviously suck, but do I have the potential to get better? Any feedback/criticism is very welcome but please don't be too mean lol.

Repost (learned to screen record)

Hi Reddit! Im finally deciding to record my voice and actually listen to it and improve. While I don’t think it’s bad, it is different from how I hear myself. I grew up on karaoke and I was never able to develop my own voice since I tend to imitate. I can hit relatively high notes for male but they aren’t stable and tend to have too much vibrato. I have so many bad habits that have been reinforced for more than 20years. Ill be posting more voice records as I try to improve.

Please be kind but honest and critical. I can take critique !!

Here’s a cover I’m working on. What do you guys think?

Need a good singer to sing a part for me on this song the parts that are empty can be used the one that is singing is AI then mine and I want it to sound good it’s a diss track I’m making with my gf about my fake friends and hers

Just thought I’d try and give some raw vocals and see if I can get some serious feedback. I want to sing for my job’s talent night and I wanna impress people who don’t really know I sing as a hobby lol.

Don’t know why- Norah jones

Going thru breakup and channeling all the forms of energy! This is my singing in bandcamp, thoughts on how to improve

?

Recorded this w EarPod mic in a park!

please ignore how ugly I look :( I’ve been trying to improve my singing since I’m part of a musical and i’m really anxious about it because I know how tense my voice sounds most of the time. So yeah I would appreciate ANY tips

hi! i uploaded this cover of breathin by ariana grande on TikTok few weeks ago and i just couldn’t believe the amount of hateful comments i got for it. i know it’s not very good and there are some weak parts but i didn’t realize that it was THAT BAD for many people to leave insane comments 😭😭 i’d appreciate if you could point out what i should work on. thank you!

The only thing that helps is when I clear my throat but then i’d have to interrupt my singing

I don’t even know if you’d consider it a vocal fry, when talking i naturally have vocal fry but this feels more like a build up saliva and the vibration from me singing makes it rattle/bubble if that makes sense.

Also if there’s any other area for improvement please let me know!

I really would love to hear you guys‘s feedback on my singing video

My biggest dream is to be a singer someday, but I have never gotten any lessons before and I’m too scared to show myself or show the way that I’m singing

So I thought it was a good idea to start here without showing anything so I could get some feedback

Thank you 🌺
