I think I get too obsessed with vibrato sometimes that I try to add it to every single note. I would love a video on straight tone vs. vibrato.
Noted!!
@Daniel Thompson she just made a video on vibrato. U should watch it.
Maybe you can take Whitney Houston as a example, natural vibrato but does not leave an impression that audience feels like overdoing it, just let it flow...
Joe Lai Lim actually, when she sang I Will Always Love You, although it had a lot of vibrato, there was a lot of straight notes too. If you always sing with a vibrato, it gets tiring, but if you have a good balance, it sounds better
Yep! You just called me out with this one😭
I live for that "what's up tarabytes intro"😂
coach I so love your hair here 😍😍😍
LOVED the intro!
11:35 did you guys hear two notes to
You should react to beyonce best live vocals
Petition to have Tara, Nikki, and Jeremie do an a cappella album together! I replayed the “what’s up Tara-bytes” 10 times because that harmony was heaven.
Ikr it was so good
king king Right?! It sounded like something straight off Broadway.
@@savannahsmith2382 yassss it sure di😘😘😘😘😘😙😗
You too lol😂
Yes!
I feel my throat engaging when it shouldn't and I get frustrated because I can tell something is wrong but I don't know how to fix it
Same
I think there are many reasons you could feel your throat engaging and its hard to really know why without someone who really knows what they are doing listen to you and try to figure it out.
However, I would try singing the note quiet and soft while focusing on not having any tension anywhere. When you get that, I would focus on where you feel the vibrations from the sound and then focus on keeping that sensation where you felt it and focusing on staying relaxed and tension free when you go back to full volume. I've found this to help me relieve a lot of tension and make higher fuller notes a lot easier.
Could be using the wrong muscles and not using the right ones.
Madeleine Harvey's series 'How to Sing High without Strain" has really helped me be more conscious about singing without the help of throat muscles and to be more aware when I fall back into that habit. I suggest consistently practicing those videos until you can do it instinctively.
I was using my headphones and my ears almost exploded with the intro 😂😂😂
😂😂😂.. But it was fire🔥💯👌🏾
Imagine using Bluetooth in your car on normal music video volume lol
Same
I find that because of my shy and reserved nature I struggle to use my breath support properly and sing loudly because I don’t want to be super loud. But after starting lessons last year, I am improving so much. I also love to watch videos of other teachers to see how they teach their students because it also in turn helps me 😊
That’s so wonderful for you!
So I’ve realized that I don’t sing in proper placement lol I definitely have to work on this ASAP!!!
When you realize that it’s easy for you to do it wrong vs the coach who finds it difficult to sing bad. 😵
i very rarely feel vibrations in my head while singing
I always feel them in the mask or chest, head on the nose like tara
I've been trained classically so my head voice is stronger than my mix and chest.
me too
My nose usually feels funny when I'm singing
I have blocked nasal passages so Even I cannot feel head voice resonance and therefore have a hard time figuring mix as well!!!
this is just for me to practice:
Chest placement:
Jeremie 2:55
Nikki 5:53
Mix placement:
Jeremie 8:51
Nikki 11:35
Head placement:
Jeremie 14:39
Nikki 17:14
Lol! Let me know how it goes!!
it helped me a lot, thanks for uploading 💗
Tara, besides you being a great singer and vocal coach, you are very articulate and speak eloquently. 💕Thank you for your videos!
8:55 Wow, he hit that F perfectly! I tried it myself, it feels like it's more of a head voice placement even though they said it's in the mixed voice register.
I did as well, try using a lot more support to bring your chest up into the mix. A lack of support will just cause you to bring your head down until it’s not mixing
@@JLogg444 hi guys, what does using more support feel like to you... maybe you squeeze your abs?
@@hcmercy6786 I think of it like pushing out your diaphragm (upper ab area I guess) but I’m still a novice so don’t take my word for it
I feel vibration where they talk about in chest voice, but I don't really feel any vibrations in head voice, I just notice the lack of vibrations in my chest when I use head voice.
That is likely falsetto!
@@lolamiley I don't think so. Cuz I think I feel falsetto differently. Lol I'm not sure though.
Mathew, woman can not teach men
@@luomodelloggione6564 oh my goodness! Do you seriously believe that?!
I think what luomodell…….6564 is trying to say is that women can’t possibly Know what head voice and falsetto should feel like for men, because they’ve never experienced it. Therefore making it very difficult to give proper advice to men on exactly how it should feel.
You've heard of Pentatonix. Well, this was Tritonix! That intro harmony was amazing, "what's up, Tara-bytes!". 🎼🎵🎶🎤🎙️
My one-year-old son is over here mimicking the singing..."ahh...aahh...ahh!"
I feel lots of vibration in my ears and fore head. Belting rings on the nose a lot with me.
I know my chest voice is coming from my chest & my head voice is coming from my nose/ eyebrow area. I don’t think I’ve ever really paid attention to my mix voice placement though. Will be doing that the next time I’m in a car listening to the radio!
The magic of watching something again months later. I didn't pick up a lot the first time I saw this, coming back again a little more well-informed from other videos and just older and wiser…, I was able to get you and pick up basically everything you were saying and make good notes out of it. Thank you so much!
You know Jeremy is an amazing singer when his example of a 'wrong mix' still sounds very good.
17:15 that note though!
Nikki: does note amazingly and acts like it’s nothing
Me: I’m sorry, wHaT PlaNEt dID YuO sAy yoU WeRE FroM?!?!?!
Also I have trouble doing higher notes in my chest voice. It is like a scale, the lower notes I can do better if not only in my chest voice and the higher notes go to my head voice and then the midrange is more of a mix. I really don’t know if that’s correct or wrong but that how it is for me.
To strengthen your chest voice and range on it Do they "Hey excercise". So imagine someone has stolen your purse and your yelling , "Hey" at them. Obviously take a supportave breath first. Then go up and down your chest range.
I have a very prominent natural vibrato, and idk how to sing without it. Lol sometimes I wanna sing a straight note, and it doesn't really happen.🤷♂️
Edit: I know how to add even more vibrato, I just don't know how to take away what I already have.
Not a vocal coach here, but it helps to be super consistent with your air to keep a note straight
For me, when I start off a note with straight tone then go to vibrato, I feel like something wrong. But if I start it off with vibrato from the beginning, it’s ok for me. So we’re different.
Give me some i guess i could use the extra vibrato you've got 😅😅😅
Matthew Aaron Allen I kind of struggle with the same thing.
Would love to see a more approachable explanation about voice types (fachs) and their sweet spots (tesitura). 🤔
Ooooof that intro😍
The thing is when you upload important techniques such as Vocal tone, resonance, or placement, there are no exercises just talking. People want to improve their tone by doing exercises.
Could I learn how to sing good even if I sound horrible now?
2:57 Is it really Bb2? Cause he says it's too low for him though for me it's higher than my speaking note. And for us low baritones, without placement higher you go your larynx jumps up at around G3 or lower and it's sounds not very good. But with placement it's easier to climb up to my first break (B3), so I'm working on the correct placement.
That intro!😍😍😍
The zipper tip is really good, I’m going to use that with my students. I always explain mix like you borrow from chest or head register. As a guy singer I agree with Jeremie about the placement in head register, but for me it also depends of the placement of the tone. So if it’s like opera style I feel it on the top of my head. Just like an example :)
OMFGGGGGG ive just found my mix im so freaking hyped yeeees I can finally sing OhDarling! b< the Beatles tyyyyyyyyy
Oh yaaaay!!!
What if I told you, that Tara was actually stood up this whole time and not sat at the piano as she would have you believe?
what??!?!?!
Kelly Marcella she wasn’t bc you could see her lean while keeping her hips in one place meaning she was sitting.
I'm a girl, and i feel the head voice resonance in the same place as Jeremy, floating in the upper half of my head. But it depends, as mentioned in the video, on the vowel I use, but also how high in the register I sing. For mix, yeah, same as all of you. Like a cannon placed at the back of my throat shooting out along/grazing the top of the palate, with a sensation through the nose as well. For proper chest. I'm with Nikki. Just an open and free feeling, and definitely feeling those abs working. I have to be conscious of that, as singing in the car (I do that a lot) makes it hard to use the abs properly, and I "program" myself to not do it properly... Thank you so much for a very valuable demonstration! :)
Love the vibes & energy you all radiate 😊
Please can you do a reaction about BTS vocals 💕
I feel my face open up as I phonate, like a blooming lotus flower in the summertime
This is by far, the most profound and elaborate demonstration and discussion about singing placements. Lots of essential information and different aspects were given importance and acknowledgement. Totally worth it to watch till the very end. Kudos to y'all guys!
Awww! Thanks dear!
I usually feel my head voice right on top of my head, like right at the top, or if it's really closed, I can feel it between the top and the mask
Please react to cimorelli top 20 songs in 2019
Jermey reminds me soooo much of todrick hall😍
7:53 Coach Nikki I Think you just properly made the difference between a scream and a note👏👏 I'm trying to say, a note is a note because it has support, a scream is just unsupported and has some sort of strain so, thank you I just leaned that🔥
15:57 I feel my head voice where Tara said she was feeling hers🤔 then again I think it's the pitch because as I go higher, i feel my vibrations where coach Jeremy says he feels it🤔 then again lol Tara said that we have different anatomy so I guess it's that hahaha
Overall, I leaned some things here☄ great video🔥
I know that but when I sing I get confused...Am I screaming or singing a high note? Cuz I feel supported, it's not like I feel any kind of tension, but even though, I don't like the result. Maybe because I don't have a very good vibrato to make the greatest difference.
This felt like being a fly on the wall during a conversation between 3 friends❤
Lol
Great video,, aroma from heaven
Really wish I had with one of you guys as a vocal coach, I'm a young singer and i try my best to sing with proper technique but being untrained i slip up sometimes
Interesting point about head voice funneled through “oo” and “ee” to get more tone. This explains Whitney’s approach perfectly. She always used those vowel choices and I don’t think she ever deviated from them.
The stronger I get, I get A headache like light headed, please explain why that is
I felt the vibration when you three _SANG A TIDAL WAVE OF MUSIC AT ME JEEZ_
please react to miss universe Catriona Gray and Mrs.Regine Velasquez singing at ASAP(ABS-CBN)
Thanks y'all! Really appreciate you taking the time to break this down. It helped a lot.
Omg is there a tutorial on mixed voice I luv my head voice and falsetto my chest voice kinda sound too piercing and donkey 😃 IM GOIN THRU VOCAK PUBERTY AS A MALE ItS HARD 😭
My mixed is non existent honestly I don’t even know how mixed is is it supposed to sound nasal or
Is there also like a tutorial to clear out pghlem cuz I be having mucus in my throat 24/7
Love you Guy's .. You have a great voice wish I could sing like you 😫
I love your Technics now I couldn't be a better singer than normal
Definitely loving this video, thanks for the clear examples and showing the spectrum so people aren’t like “okay I hear what’s right but how do I get to that”. As an intermediate vocal student though, I wish people wouldn’t use the word “push” when it comes to engaging with the diaphragm. It confused me for years. If I wasn’t getting the sound/tone I wanted I would start to push (not as hard but sort of as if I was giving birth lol). This can cause tension now in a *new* spot in your body that isn’t helping with anything + it can make you sing harder, which is just a recipe for disaster
Thank you for this. I'm not someone who sings to sound great, I sing because it's what my soul needs sometimes... But watching these videos are what I and those close to me needs 😂. I may sing in tune, but the struggle is real - but avoidable it seems - Yay to more singing! 💙
Do a video tutorial on range extension for guys please!
Please react to Miley Cyrus - I’ll take care of you live at Sunrise. Her vocals are INSANE. It’ll show her voice is unlike any other voice in the pop industry today.
To clarify - “engaging” or “activating” your core does NOT mean just squeezing your abs
Then what does it mean?
I'm on a video marathon in your channel. Thanks for doing tutorials.
Hello!
Thank you for this video!!!
I have a slow vibrato....sometimes.
Would you address vibrato issues in a video?
You should definitely react to Cheryl Porter teaching James Charles how to properly sing Someone You Loved-Lewis Capaldi
I'd love to see you react to Angelina Jordan's recent AGT champions performance!

If u practicing and need a reminder
Hi, I feel I sing well but can do waaaaayyyyyy better...... So I need something to start with as a beginner
Hey guys 💗 I've just discovered your channel and I'm so happy! I love that you are doing videos on placement!
When warning up, getting placement consistently hss always been a challenge for me - I feel so hit and miss - some days I'm able to achieve proper placement and other days it doesn't matter what I do I can't achieve proper placement... My voice will stay low in my throat and my breathing uncoordinated and too breathy...
Do you have any vocal warmups/scales that you'd recommend that would help me to correct this and achieve proper placement on a consistent basis? Is proper placement more based on our breathing or our vocal warmups? I'd love any tips or advice because this inconsistency is SO frustrating and this affects my confidence and creates a lot of anxiety because I don't have any process that's reliable for me 💗💗
Hello! What do you think about the thin and thick closure of the vocal cords? Perhaps the information about voice formation in this video is outdated a bit?
thank you for this video! can you plz do one on vowel purity and mouth and jaw placement?
So this was an awesome lil gold nugget. I’ve always been concerned that i was causing strain whenever I felt tension in my neck and jaw. Sounds like yes. But my voice sits lower than Jeremie’s (which I would consider the more typical r&b and pop bright tenor voice, where the music market is) so it’s usually “fun” finding my place in contemporary music. Thanks for safe tips!
Please react to Stan Walker, Bob Marley or KORA
I want y'all to picture three doctors talking medical talk if you don't have the intelligence to know what there saying you're left in the dark that's how there talking so I advise you to not watch this if you do not understand what there saying because you'll be left in the dark so the moral to this is you have to have a little intelligence to understand there singing analysis
I do death metal vocals and am trying to learn to sing clean better. I was laughing so hard when they talked about the thrash metal fo-chest mix.
vocal placement is a confusing woowoo term that vocal coaches made up and helps no one until they figure it out themselves and then can sort of understand with hindsight.
What about the Mask? Mask is not head.
And to compare placements you have to do the sane height of note
For reference, I'm a really light tenor in school for voice right now. For me, chest voice is probably the one that I physically feel the most; I feel a lot of vibrations in my chest especially in my lows. Mix for me depends on the type of mix I'm using and where I am in my range, but in terms of a balanced mix I mostly feel that like right below my cheekbones kinda where Coach Nikki and Tara said they felt theirs. Head voice for me is similar to Coach Jeremie, I feel it just floating above the back of my head on rounded vowels, but in front vowels, I feel it like right in between my eyebrows.
Could you go through placement for your lowest range? Is that chest?
I agree with Jeremy in literally EVERYTHING.
Especially headvoice. I feel in so strongly in my forehead and eyes that once after an entire voice lesson practicing it, it actually triggered a fullblown migraine... so yeah :D
Amazing video. Props to you all and keep up the awesome work!
Regards from Germany
i was told that the voice should be back but free, as opposed to singing on the teeth. so placement starts in the support.
His mixes were both good... I think he just has a preference.
I watched this video, the ones on breath support and probably another one where you “debunked” speech level singing. That “screaming level singing” joke and the lifting exercise gave me instant results! I practiced screaming and shouting in a pillow to get the feeling of a solid breath support and I am already singing so much more self confidently! Now to your videos on head voice :D
All great tips, thank you so much! Exercises with other coaches and, even better (imo), with students really prove the points of a singing coach using YT as a platform.
Yaaay! I’m so glad they helped! Day made!
Sorry but I’m still confused.
the support is why I started to workout xD
Thank you, you have helped me identify my problem!
If your a beginner singer what's some tricks you need to know
I had to give a like just for that amazing and powerful intro with the harmony ♥️
Thank you sweetheart!! And your nice friends !!
She should make a discord server
I'm grown and l haven't sing in 20 yrs I used to sing in choir
If you practice to sing the wrong way, it can become a habbit.
Not that amazing harmony from the jump! Yaaasss!
Rewatching all singing videos, because i (yet again) hav had a singing revelation, and understand all the content in a completly different way😂 can't wait to see what i learn from this video THIS TIME😂❤ remember guys, if you are not able to get a clear and good sounding tone in your speaking register, just holding a single note, solve that first.. for 6 years i have been watching youtube learning to sing. And last week i finally solved it, and now understand how support works completly. I found it by singing falsetto and feeling how open my throat felt, because the tongue of my root actually relaxed proparly. Singing chest with that feeling fixed everything for me. I do have to conciously open my throat all the time because it is so new, but so fun to finally understand what MY personal problem has been all these years. All exerxices i have done have been mostly useless, and all youtube vidoes as well. Personal trial and error with getting voice to sound as open and round as possible is very important in my opinion. THEN these youtube tips suddenly start to make sense
So glad to hear you’ve unlocked some new things in your voice. I agree that trying to do things on your own, watching videos can be confusing and often ineffective which is exactly why I created my app. I have mini courses on various vocal topics filled with tips and exercises normally saved for private lessons. Shoot me an Instagram DM at @tarasimonstudios where it’s easier for me to share the link there.
Did i miss something? So where is proper placement?
Thank you so much for all the tips and insight! I wished I chased my dreams and took vocal lessons, but I’m thankful there are people in the world like you three that offer us advice :)
I'm not professional singer me to improve on My singing
How do I read the note to know what key I am in without Piano or Instrument
I've watched about 14 of your videos, but I still can't practice without my throat hurting :( Is this normal for beginners? I know it's really hard to describe action of human anatomy to others and have them "get it". Almost an impossible challenge. I'll keep trying!
This is the most profound demonstration I’ve ever had, great job guys. 🙏🏾👏🏽❤️
Wow! That’s fantastic!
I'm a male, and at around b flat in the 4th octave, the buzz becomes so bright and buzzy it's not very attractive, I'm wondering if I can dial that back? To make it more chesty?
