I have a new vocal technique channel uploads every week. ua-cam.com/channels/ptWfm6ZZ5rRfvycLEYqqfw.html
I like the main theme messages you've got going on about singing freely. Im realizing how true it is necessary to sing well. I went through a 6 month period recently where my voice went to crap because of prolonged distress due to a traumatic situation a year ago that I put on the back burner, but it caught up with me which the earliest symptoms I began experiencing tension in areas I didn't normally have tension: my throat, neck, tongue and jaw.
But the big hitter came when my breathing started becoming very shallow and it caused me all sorts of issues like strain and my vocals began to crack all the time. I didn't know until shortly after that started happening and I saw a few doctors about it, that my body's stress response wasn't turning off. It was going 24/7, even in my sleep. When our stress response is triggered, our blood vessels constrict, and our breath which we typically breathe from the diaphragm, becomes constricted and from the chest instead. I couldn't take long deep breaths for the life of me. This loss of my singing voice made me start to reevaluate my life, and eventually it dawned on me how living in this era or time where we are bombarded with information overload and are constantly being stimulated thanks to technology at our fingertips, and it catches up with us if we don't intentionally decompress on a consistent bases.
So after incorporating some meditation techniques along with silencing my phone for at least 10 hours out of my waking day, within a few weeks I noticed my breathing began shifting back into my diaphragm and the tension in my body began to release so I could relax my throat and jaw again. I actually do a 5-10 minute relaxation meditation before practicing where I'm scanning for all the tension in my body and relaxing all the muscles. Even our tongue can hold tension.
Anyway, thank you for taking the time make these videos. I guess my point is, we all need to slow down or lay off of the constant stimuli in our environments..
This was perfect timing to run into your videos since you reiterate "letting go" and vocal freedom which are resonating with me more than ever right now! Thank you again for taking the time to make these videos. They are really helpful.
I have a book coming out very soon which talks about many of the topics I cover on this channel in more details, stay tuned xx
The books out! 😂Becoming a natural singer
Wow! I’ve taken guitar, piano and drum lessons. You may be the best teacher I have ever seen. You are so calm and precise. I feel like you could teach any subject. Thank you for the videos.
I'm not someone who even thinks to comment on UA-cam, this made such a difference that I had to thank you.
As soon as I saw the animation and you explained, my throat opened up massively and instantly with practically no effort. Many of the videos on youtube use vague analogys and excercises... Without the understanding the physical mechanics they are like gibberish.
Concise to the point and effective. 👌👌
You made me realise how much I miss my late friend and vocal coach, I never heard anyone since he went away explain the mechanics of the voice as you do. You are a breath of fresh air. Thank you.
As a medical student, those videos and types of mechanical based explanations help immensely. Thanks man!
awesome that's great news!
Thanks, I'm a beginner and I do get what you are talking about. From time to time I feel the freedom of voice pouring out which you talking about, I will concentrate on isolating this feeling for all my singing.
Very very good. Your sincerity shows through.
This tutorial is just exactly what I needed. My voice is becoming more smooth when transitioning to a higher note. Thank you for helping people who aren't born with natural singing skills like me and keep spreading wisdom for melodists.
I am not one top comment on videos, but you sir are an amazing teacher. Using the yawning explanation gave me the click in my brain I needed and I wowed myself. Thank you sir you earned a subscriber and a long time viewer today.
Great advice, I'm trying to improve my singing and think your concepts of "uninhibited vocal freedom" and "controlling when to squeeze" are putting me on a decent track
the mind must be open and calm enough, the vocal cords must be coordinated and skilful enough.
Fantastic videoThis is exactly what I have just recently started to feel and work on. This video is extremely applicable and helpful and you are, for me, the best voice coach I have ever come across.
cheers dude, it's great to get feedback like this.
Seriously, no one explain it better. BEST SINGING TEACHER EVER .
I luv you Carl. Glad you're here man. You have helped me so much. I'm still learning. LOL.
I tell you get stronger in your journey , so all the this make sense
Hey, thanks for the video! Just tried out a song I've been working on and really sort of focused on, or didn't focus on per se, that throat muscle. It seemed to just let go and sort of flow up into higher registers that I previously thought I had to apply a lot of pressure to get to. I think I get what you mean and experienced a sense of that floaty feeling you were talking about.. You almost have to just let go of the fear and then it comes. You can't apply too much pressure it seems like. Thanks again!
it's the middle ground between control and letting go that great singers live in.
This is pretty accurate IME, a year ago I already had good range and pitch just from singing along to stuff, but my voice always sounded 'off' somehow, and constricted, so pretty much every bit of practise over the last year has been aimed at improving the stuff you talk about here. The funny thing is that when I listen to some recordings from way back a few of them are actually decent and released sounding, I was just unable to replicate them until recently after hundreds of hours of focused practise. I blame it on a lifetime habit of being very understated and I carried over a lot of constriction from my speaking voice (which has also improved a lot).
Balance and freedom great lesson thanks
Yes!
Carl is the man...been a while since I've said it.

that was not a reply.
These are highly knowledgeable, informative, and helpful videos. Thank you so very much for sharing.
Yeah preach on!
Hey man! Thanx so much. Do you give online lessons?
yes feel free to email me, carljohnfranz@gmail.com
@@cwehden thanx Carl!
Excellent Man ! 2 thumbs up.
This was such a helpful video I agree that this is part of what distinguishes a beginner from an advanced. Love your channel!
cheers dude, stay tuned more to come
The softly spoken videos are my favourite... 👍🤓
Yeah. If you only have power in your voice you only can show one thing and if you don't have much power but feeling in voice you can do much more because what is feeling.feeling is everything so you can show many things with voice and how you show feeling you show it with different levels of compression adjustment. Lot of Thanks to @carlwehden you are the only person i have seen who started teaching this. Lots of respect to you. Thank you Carl wehden The Great.
agility gives true and consistent power. singing in a balanced voice (not light mix and not belt) is hardest task actually.
I feel as my coaching is getter better more and more of the right people start showing up on my channel. I was quite proud of this video it's simple but powerful which is my main goal with these.
So this is what's going on and why I can hit those high notes naturally without force. I use to do be so bad but I discovered something about myself. I was able to feel the resonance of pitch in certain parts of my vocal cords of songs that were playing. Some of them in the roof of my mouth and in the back of my throat. I just let the note naturally go where it wants and bam! I hit g4 and c5. I am able to hit all the notes in my range now effortlessly. It's like my voice is moving by itself but all I am doing is throwing air into it. It's really hard to explain. When I get to the very top, I was light-headed a bit. It was a weird feeling so I quit. Was it the resonance of the note I was feeling? It was very weird. I also had some other strange things occur. My Tibetan singing bowl started to vibrate by itself when I hit g4. I discovered this by accident through presence/awareness of what was going on. Everything affects you and moves you. Everything vibrates at a frequency. If you just let it, you will achieve these results.
Great comment 👍🏻 Good technique allows more our fundamental frequencies to be 'let out'. I have new vocal technique channel new videos every week. ua-cam.com/channels/ptWfm6ZZ5rRfvycLEYqqfw.html
P. S. This particular video is so powerful. I really appreciate you addressing this topic.
My singing voice and the possibility of using it more in the future...feels more within reach now. Thank you Carl.🙏🏻
thanks for watching Mostly, am happy to help. Was pleased with this video :)
love your video bro,, very helpful ,, thanks
Not sure you'll see this, brother, but I just want to say thank you. I'm a 37 year old beginner and this video was a real light bulb moment for me. The way you conceptualize singing in this video (freedom, having nothing blocking or constraining my voice, being open and vulnerable etc.) really clicked for me. I just play guitar and sing in my apartment and want to get better, and from this video I noticed a huge change in my singing voice. You unlocked another way for me to express myself, in a way. This is invaluable and really means the world to me. You don't have to take the time to make these videos, but you do. And it really is life enhancing stuff. Thank you so much; what you do is inspiring and makes the world a brighter place (which is a really big deal).
Thanks so much for this one, Carl. SO very helpful. I’m starting over after a 20 yr break. My biggest question is regarding the ratio of “understanding” as you mentioned here (the freedom, stretching, etc) vs. “confidence”... maybe I’m mistaken... I feel like I may sing with more of the freedom you mention in this video if I find my confidence again. I hope my question makes sense. Thanks again for all you do.
Thanks and please do a video about different kinds of compressions. I know you always talk about compression but there are probably different ways how to compress different sounds - could you cover it for us?
my recent analysis videos cover some of this, check out the playlists
Thanks for the reply. I have of course seen all the analysis videos already. :)
I feel like I’ve missed the first part of this conversation. Does it exist anywhere?
Ive practised using singing success and visiting an sls coach for a few years now and I still can only sing in a mix by complete fluke and I have no control over when it happens 😭
"...they can't help but get drawn in..." - immediate like! Thank you.
yeah it's so true though, freedom before power always and forever ;)
Hey bro can you make a video on how to sing like Matthew Bellamy (the singer of Muse). They are my favorite band and I would really appreciate it. I love your videos so keep it up! Thanks for the help
LOVED this.
yeeeeaya! am pleased :)
Awesome background music!
cheers I have some cool ideas coming, stay tuned :)
Great video.
thank you!
Be free. This reaaaaallllyyyy will help so as not to pushhhh it. Thank you!
Hey Carl, I do not know if you already made a video, or not on the subject, but I seem to have this issue with lip rolls. My speaking voice is a lower register, bass/baritone, but in singing I can get up to a c7; however, in liprolls I fail to be able to bring them into whistle. Is that normal?
great video
cheers Sophie
I’m having trouble controlling my larynx
It's hard ship thing voice from lower to higher pitch...
Carl leading his red pilled singing army with that outro music.
this is a good what I'm going to call my followers the 'red pill singing army' thank you! :)
I'm officially done with singing for good. I can't even bear the sound of my own voice
That's normal, it takes time to getting used to it.
Exactly, there's actually no reason to stop it if you're singing because you love to sing and not just to be a star or something like that. The best part is you don't even need to be a "good" singer to enjoy it. You just need to accept that, it willl takes time and also dedication if you want to become better at it. Eventually, you'll figure your voice out and you'll be happy with it :)
good thing you got the acting gig.
I was singing for many years before I got better, you have to stick through the hard times to come out of the other side, stay strong dude x
I’ve watched a couple of your videos and like them... mainly because you are funny... “even if they find you irritating as a person” 🤣🤣 Awesome! 👍🏻
With that said, I keep hoping you’ll demonstrate the actual difference in singing by singing. From Someone who has never taken lessons and really has no idea what you are fully referring to... this would be helpful! Otherwise I’m just going to walk around making weird noises!
😳😩😜
Good reminder. I have developed a lot of bad habits that I need to rid myself of.
I'm taking a week to focus on this lesson alone.

You tube, double like this for me.
I'm kinda in love with you
I'm single 😂👍🏻
@@cwehden such a pity there's literally an ocean between us hahahahah
Carl John Franz: I’m
In love with you too handsome! Bearded, talented and single! What more could someone ask for? :)
I'm too ... Common honey freedom and art , love, high notes and stuff... Together .... :-D
On a side note...who the hell was the 1 dislike?
Frustrating as shit. Ideas about everything to improve on and no system to do it, unless with someone one on one.
