I read an interview with Myles Kennedy, whose voice I love, talking about his voice teacher, the legendary Ron Anderson. Ron's ear is so good that he told Myles he liked the new Alterbridge album but there was jaw tension in his singing. That's amazing for two reasons: Ron's ability to hear it and knowing even a singer as great as Myles still has to work on and keep up with his technique.
Thank you for sharing, Denis! 👍 The longer you train your voice and teach others the more things you start to hear. You don't really need to see what's going on and most of the things you can't see anyways because it happens inside the throat. And yeah, you're never done learning and I think that's a beautiful thing. How boring would it be if you had nothing left to accomplish or learn?!

Sure! If you get the right teacher and are dedicated enough to put in the necessary regular practice while keeping an open mind and being patient. Then definitely yes! 😉🤘
Thanks for asking the question as I have seen incremental improvements from the small amount of practice I have done but I too was wondering at what point my potential is limited by my initial voice.
Someone's singing potential (assuming having healthy vocal cords) is mostly limited by one's habits, willpower and mind. Far less by the physiology. Of course there are certain factors that define alot of how you sound like and such, but there is alot you can do. It's mostly finding what works for your voice and practicing and training the good things until they become habits, getting rid of bad habits. A good coach can hear your bad habits and make your aware of them, then show you ways to make it better. Then you need to put in the consistent training and that's how you improve. 🙂

Can totally relate to the first three tips, especially the jaw one (that pressure was the hardest to deal with back in the day, oh man! A minute or two of it, and I'd be beat). Just never thought about the last two, but hey, I'll use them as well 👍😉 I don't coach, but a few weeks ago I had to teach my good friend to breathe properly during a song, he was surprised, hehe 😲😀 Thanks, man 👍😃 P. S. Also, maybe not essential, but from my experience - never drink alco right before a gig. I'm no alcoholic, but had a couple of embarrassing moments...
Thanks for sharing, Moonchild! 🤘 Yeah, alcohol can really mess you up. I usually don't drink before gigs and if I do I never drink more than a small beer. And always... Alot of water! 💧💧💧🥤👍
@@GCVocalCoaching I say about water what some Russians say (and I'm part-Russian 😉) : "ahhh, vital liquid!" ("zvivitel'naya vlaga"). Although don't drink tap water in Moscow... Trust me 😂😳Better come to Estonia, my country 🇪🇪👍 Pete Shelley of The Buzzcocks spent his final years here ☺️ We have quality mineral water, too. Oh, finally, lemonady. Nope. I drank Sprite before a televised appearance (!), where I sang Radiohead's Creep... and the scream came out nearly as bad as Wes' 😱
@@GCVocalCoaching Unfortunately they removed some of the clips, for example, the entire theater stage of auditions (I sang and played slowed-down Johnny Cash's "The train a-comin'"). And "Creep" was cut as well. In this first clip ("Saving the fallouts") there's only a bit of footage from it. Oh well. ua-cam.com/video/VMKTKIqnO74/v-deo.html And a couple of other performances. That was 9 years ago when I was still finding my voice, made some mistakes, it was nasal and not as powerful as I can do now, but hey, we learn from mistakes, and the whole experience felt so cool 😊😎😉 This is the first audition (I thought it was a Russian-only channel so I mainly spoke Russian, but turned out it had an Estonian audience as well so they added subtitles - with a couple of mistakes, but, again, the crew was so friendly 😊👫). ua-cam.com/video/KATaCjsRaAM/v-deo.html And this is Devil Woman, the Estonian version, which is very popular here. Our local classic singer, Jaak Joala, got away with singing rock in USSR, and now Uku Suviste made it a hit once again 👍 ua-cam.com/video/Dkq1pItOgP4/v-deo.html
Great video man! I had a Problem when i started training and singing with less pushing, i noticed that i cannot hit the same high notes as usual (cause i used to push them) is that normal?
Hey Suleiman! Great question. It can definitely happen that, if you are used to squeeze or push out notes, when you work on changing your habits to gain more freedom you will not be able to hit the same high notes right away. Because your body is trained to do it in just that pushy way and not in the easier way. Changing those habits takes time and alot of repetition and good practice. If you put in the work you will be able to reach higher notes then ever before with more ease, provided you practice correctly. So this can be part of the process and is quiet common. 🙂
Idk why but when I sing the same song sometimes I find my voice good and sometimes I find it bad what should I do to keep my voice good? Also what's the best warmup for my voice?
Which song? Keeping a positive additude could help you with this and your mood might be a factor that makes it inconsistent. Try to maintain that positive feeling that I mention in my "How to find your own voice"-video. Give it a try and tell me if it helped.
By the way, about that jaw tension. I had atdditional trouble because... how do I put this... my jaws are unlevelled. The upper one is slightly more to the forward (or is it the lower jaw is slightly more to the rear). What would be your advice for such people? 🤔😉
@@GCVocalCoaching I found what it's called - overbite. ;) I don't know about Freddie. Now that I'm thinking of it, there IS something interesting about it, and yet, if I'm correct, 4,5 octaves 👍😎👏I have read that Ian Gillan used to have around 5 (C5, I believe) :O ! Correction: Freddie F2-F6, Ian D2-D6.
@@GCVocalCoaching Yes! I tried to do the same things you said in vide, look easy but is hard, but importnat is tonot give up. Controling the air flow, and words is most harder.
@@GCVocalCoaching I have a question, when my brain and body will accept my way of singing, i keep feeling like i sound like a dead cat, sometimes. And i wonder when i will feel confortable of my voice and understand i sing good.
