  • How to sing any song - Voice Lessons - Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy
    One of the most important factors for how to sing any song is maybe to say this a different way.
    How can I find myself in this song?
    There is a roadmap.
    And this roadmap consists of some very key criteria for finding yourself in a song.
    1) Ownership. How well do you know it? This is extremely important from a psychological confidence factor.
    2) Is it something that fits and suits your voice? Otherwise, massage it, mold it, and meld it into your own vibe and style. If you don't feel you have enough originality in your voice to do this, there is no harm in learning and capturing the spirit and style of the original and trying to duplicate it. This is how we grow and put in our "tool box" for singing many different styles. You will find that once you learn a few licks and the vibe of various artists, there is a similarity you can draw from, so you are not reinventing the wheel every time you sing.
    3) Do you have realistic expectations (and it's ok to reach for the stars, but do it incrementally, with a realistic plan/goal on how to get there AND allow yourself enough time to do so)
    4) Have you trained technically to be "in shape" to sing a desired song? It's not practice that makes perfect. It's PERFECT practice that makes perfect. Get good quality information on how to get there.
    Einstein's definition of insanity is "trying the same experiment over and over and expecting a different result." If you keep trying the same thing, and it is not working, your information (and/or at least your understanding, interpretation, and implementation of that
    information) is not correct. You should see results even if they are small.
    I cover all this in my singing course.
    I hope this helps you guys,
    God bless,
    Peace... Out!

    One of the things I really like about your videos Ken is that you're able to do it all in one take. You see all these other "creatives" relying on the jump cut, and it drives me crazy. Your dedication to the single cut shows just how much expertise you bring to the subject of singing, and I'm a fan of what you do! Keep rocking always \m/

    • @kentamplin
      @kentamplin  7 років тому +323

      Thanks, M-Ben! Not only is it a one take, but there is zero autotune. It troubles me that some vocal coaches say that autotune is the accepted norm and so therefore it's OK for vocal coaches to use artificial means to sing on-pitch! Really???

    • @FolarTheGreat
      @FolarTheGreat 7 років тому +118

      YESSS, auto-tune is even more infuriating >_< The world needs more singers (and TEACHERS) like you Ken!!

    • @levelfourteen
      @levelfourteen 7 років тому +14

      Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy pitch correction is the norm. Auto tune is the most popular form of pitch correction. If you take the top 20 songs on billboard almost all of them have some pitch correction or autotune. It makes a good singer great. You can make autotune not sound like the sound we associate with auto tune such as the cher effect or the tpain sound.

    • @FolarTheGreat
      @FolarTheGreat 7 років тому +122

      Was it the norm for Freddie Mercury? Or Dio? Or Ann Wilson? Just because something is popular or the current "industry standard" does not mean it should be used. And it certainly does not help make better music. Auto tune makes people lazy, and the music suffers because of it.

    • @levelfourteen
      @levelfourteen 7 років тому +5

      M-Ben Fowler​​​​​​ were talking about current day. Idc about Freddie Mercury. His time has come and passed. Great vocalist but music changes I doubt he'd be famous in this era making primarily rock music. Rock's not the musical juggernaut it once was. Because the people today have different taste. It doesn't mean it's better or worse it's strictly opinion not fact. I grew up listening to rock, pop and rnb from the 80s. Most of time i prefer current music today then 80s music with the exception of MJ. And that's my opinion it's not fact. I enjoy listening to today music over the past. It's your opinion that's auto tune is lazy and makes the music suffer is simply not fact. Your sounding like an old person complaining about music was better back in the day than the music people listen too today.

      Jennifer Harwood I think personally, you save more money (because time=$$) by having some help on that at least on occasion. Make much faster progress, even in an instrument you're fairly skilled at already. I make a lot of progress in person WAY more so than anything online or on Skype type lessons because of the latency (delay). I've had lessons in voice, drums, guitar, piano and bass :)

  • @thumbody1

    I am a retired guitarist/musician who sang background vocals in cover bands for decades. I had some sinus surgery done in 2017 and it changed the resonance in my instrument. As a result of that I haven't really sang since then because nothing worked like it used to. I was never a great singer but was what I considered adequate.
    Ken, you are very inspiring. Enough so to make me want to learn to sing better. I write and record my own original material these days just for fun and I occasionally produce projects for others. I believe that knowing how to sing correctly would greatly improve my ability to communicate vocal nuances to other singers when working on productions.

      It's not about what he can do. That's his voice, not yours. Find what your voice can do, and make the very most of that. If you try emulating someone who has a ton of training and talent you are going to get frustrated, or pick up very bad habits. Concentrate on your voice, not his.
      Oh, and never be afraid to make a horrifically bad sound. You have to make those sounds to learn how to make nice ones.

    Ken, I wanted to stop and speak thanks to you...again. we had a gig this weekend. I flew in & helped do all I could to help set up. I told my guys, guys I just heard Ken tell me to warm up. The venue cranked the air & a vent right above me was drying me out. I heard myself change my singing. I tightened my jaw and heard your voice again! OPEN THROAT!. I regrouped & forced my brain. I recovered and sang the rest of our time with ease. You've taught me so.much. thx for speaking in my head!

    @undeadman7676 5 років тому +9

    I recommend that everybody come back and watch this video at least once a month if you don't have a vocal teacher or Tamplin's singing course. This is probably his single most important video beyond the basics with breath support and all that. It's just such a nice concept that will almost immediately improve your singing if you ever feel you've hit a wall in your singing path. I've been working on a cover for Come What May from Moulin Rouge and I could not hit the highest note of the song for whatever reason. I sang the song with just vowels and I immediately figured out why I was splatting; my vowel modification was terrible. Such a good video, love love love.

    • @kentamplin
      @kentamplin  5 років тому +5

      Thanks for the kind words, undeadman7676! You're right, this video contains PURE GOLD for those wise enough to recognize it when they see and hear it. This information, as well as an infinity more, is part of my singing course. This technique alone can unlock a lot of songs and help you to determine why you can't sing it in practical applications, yet you are capable of hitting the notes in scales and exercises. It's the consonants that mess you up, and the fact that you are trying to sing words instead of vowels. We sing on vowels. Consonants interrupt vowels. We break the song down into pure singing, and it gets much easier to see, hear, and feel what we are doing that is holding us back. I give information like this for free in hundreds of videos. If you get the course, all of this and much more is given with exercises and instructions, plus the moderators on my forums help my students to get to the next level by giving feedback on your progress if you are enrolled in my course.

And we went through the song w vowels only first before we ever put words in it! After not singing for the last 15 yrs___I think I will start watching this channel to get back into it!!

    Oh man this was absolutely brilliant. As you go up and up, vowels, if you naturally let them, start to fade away, until you get to whistle voice and there’s no distinguishable vowel sound at all! So the amazing thing is that the vowel sounds are only in the mind of the listener, not in the voice of the singer! Amazing video Ken, totally blew my mind.

But you have inspired me to give it a go again and I will look into your course. Ken explain it all so well and you can sing unlike some others and you keep it real keep rocking stay safe from Western Australia.
