How do you know if you're using proper breath support? How do you know what good singing support feels like?
Are you tired of feeling tired when you sing... Like you're having trouble finishing certain lines of a song? Do you lack the power you want out of your voice?
In this video, I offer three simple tips and exercises to test your current breath support and dial in how you can get more power and control out of your voice!
Anyone else feels so lucky to have someone like Chris explaining things so visually and easy to understand and most important , makes you feel getting better step by step? This channel is a goldmine for vocalists just saying.......
You’ve got to be one of the best instructors out there, everyone speaks in tradition terms , yet u get right to the core of the issue, which is detrimental to the student 👌🙏👌
Trust me this stuff helps a ton. The most frustrating feeling in the world is when you’re good singing progress dips into an ebb, and you just can’t seem to get your voice out. You’re not hurt, you’re just kinda stuck / doubting yourself / tense. All of Chris’s stuff helps quickly break you out of that and get back to the fun stuff. Exactly BECAUSE his content and methods are unconventional and feel-based.
Chris you should do a breakdown of Jim Morrison’s singing. I’ve been getting into the doors recently and I’m amazed by Jim’s ability to express emotions.
Totally agree!
DIOOOOS SIIIIIIII. SOBRE TODO DE LO PARTICULAR Y UNICO QUE ES SU RASPADO DE VOZ. Jim Morrison es un cantante muy infravalorado, deberia tener un especio en tus videos
I just sang that line in a soft vibrato voice and I was surprised it sounded good and didn’t hurt my throat. Thank you. I’m in a recovery journey right now and this just made me cry. I’m so glad to have vocal coaches like you here to help! Thank you ❤
I don't know what kind of recovery journey you are on but I am too. I have been dealing with a form of Mtd for almost 2 years now and I am hoping that some of the tips from Chris, like this video, combined with my speech therapy, will get me back to singing naturally like I used to!
Thanks to you , i know now how to sing better. Everytime when I do this my voice gets stronger and i don't have a vocal fatigue. And by the time i have a full power of my voice , i am going to be the best singer ever.
Yeah! Chris! You have the greatest way of explaining breath support than any other I have ever heard from vocal instructors. Great cover of Aretha Franklin!!!
Thank you!
SERIOUSLY.
I've been watching the voice and there are several singers who have fantastic voices but just aren't getting that support right. Chris, you could make winners out of all those vocalists.
Thank you Chris. The recommendation of focusing on pushing down like pooping and not worrying about the notes helped me.
My neck is now lose, I sing with less effort, I use the pressure in my lower back/abdomen muscles to control. Thank you so much.
Simply Red covered a song that was sung by Aretha Franklin which was called Angel. It’s very very hard to sing, and yes Mick Hucknall from Simply Red would be a great vocalist to analyse when it comes to breath support and using mixed voice in a very powerful way. Mick Hucknall is a very powerful and charismatic singer.
Nice, I’ll have to listen to more of simply red!
@ Chris R. Bale The title track from Picture Book is so hauntingly good , you are spot on Mick is in his own lane .
Such valuable information! I’ve just listened to songs I’ve heard dozens of times before. I’m now noticing the ending of the last vowel of groups of words. I notice they’re using the techniques demonstrated in this video. I had no idea!
I would really love to see a video on Elliott Smith style singing!
Yess! That would be awesome!!
Awesome great music song. Singing 🔥🔥🔥
Chris liepe the best
Aretha had an amazing set of pipes.
Nice vocal Chris. The "take it easy" part is no cake walk. Lou Gramm did a great cover of that tune
Oh my goodness Chris your voice in soul music sounds great!
Thank you!!
Please do Luther vandross please from zambia.
Going back to this video hey! The last part is a bit like a revelation that’s amazing!
It makes it easier to be aware of where the energy or tension is. It helped me notice that it all went back to my throat when signing softer notes and that’s why it felt very crappy. Thank you :D definitely doing this often also becaust it’s very fun and I’m all about that
Ok now that I watched the entire video I'm even more hyped, all exercises were very useful, and the last one was actually eye opening. I'm practicing shifting the 'holding tension' from top to bottom and that's literally freeing my voice. I love these aha moments and you've been responsible for many of them through my singing journey. 😂
This exactly what I needed to improve, and this exactly the Liepe way I needed to approach it, thanks!
Glad it helped!
Whenever I watch your videos I wonder why am I paying for a voice teacher or why am I not taking lessos from you lol I've been studying singing for barely a year but I think just not I'm getting the hang of breath support and thanks to this video I finally get it why I can't sing "softer" or higher. Specifically the thing about the voice crack and the enphatization on the UH vowel lighted my lightbulb. You really are a great singing teacher.
You should take lessons from me :) go to chrisliepe.com to see how !!
U chose ur style n u always rock.
I prefer Whitney Houston💜 though, she could sing & belt mind blowing.
this is truly gold
Love this
You are a literal jedi, Chris. Thank you ❤
So awesome!!! Highly impressed…
This is the best explanation I've seen on UA-cam! Thank you sire!
Thanks a lot for this comprehensive video...
Great educational, and entertaining videos you make, imo.
Amazed by how good you are at singing! 👏
Ear candy 👂💜
Thank you 🙏
✌️
Extremely valuable, thank you, thank you, thank you. I especially like the tip with re-directing the energy.
Definitely something I have struggled with in the past, such a helpful approach , thanks chris!
You’re so welcome!
Great techniques 😊
I have my inter college eastern singing competition tomorrow. Wish me luck chris
Good luck!!
Yeah baby!
Hi! Would like to see Refused's Dennis Lyxzén screaming breakdown. the guys aren't so popular, but the man's vocals are just incredible today
This is my second time recommending this and I'll continue until I can get you to record
Please make a video about Corey Taylor's voice at Vermilion in Subliminal Verses album.
I love your work and you always help me so much
Dope 🔥 Appreciate the game/ knowledge! 🔥🔥🎙
You're so welcome!
@@chrisliepe 💪💪
Your videos helped me so much with my singing because they dont follow the typical sing scales and do exercises type of formula so thank you! I suggested this before already but please check out Damiano David from Maneskin; his singing style is so unique and cool, it would be amazing to see a video on him!
Have you ever looked into Sir Russell Allen's vocals before? I think he would make a fascinating topic for a video. He is so extremely talented! By the way your videos are the first of hundreds I've seen that have made an immediate difference in my abilities so thank you for that!
"If you'd ever gone to the bathroom" hahahahahahahahahahahna great video, man! as always!
Cheers from Brazil!
Ooooh what shiny, sparkly gems you've given us here Chris. This sort of control of air flow will add so much lustre, texture and emotion. I love your sense of detail and I LOVED hearing you sing some Aretha. Thankyou :)
Please do a video on Bush's Gavin Rossdale, really love his voice and I wanna learn about it!
Wilson Pickett and Eddie Floyd next!
I've just had my first vocal lesson and your 'obviously wrong' is how I sing, but the coach said I need to work on my support which Is why i found this video and this is exactly what I need to do. Thanks man
Came to remind you that you’re the best
Thank you so much!
Chris in the future can you do Ville Valo (Sleepwalking Past Hope (Digital Versatile Doom) live has INSANE vocal range and Grace Slick of any of her live preformances of somebody to love? I think they are amazing ,underrated voices and we can learn alot from them . Stay healthy and have a beautiful day
I would love to see you do a analysis of Maranda Curtis voice preferably your presence song
Chris, im sorry for sorta spam, but pleeeaaase, make a video about Sebastian Bach and his technique of singing and screaming 🙏 Greetings from Poland!
Hi Chris, you are very good at analyzing voice. could you please analyze the voice of Paolo Nutini, in my opinion it is incredible and unreasonable. can you explain to me what is so special about him and if you think so too? Thanks in advance.
I always struggle to get enough air in for the next line, if it follows up quick. And after a chain of quick powerfull phrases I feel like my head explodes :-D
Hey I was wondering if you could make an analysis of any song from "Infamous" album (I'd love to see Black Damask) by Motionless In White? I know you did analyse Chris' vocals but there you can find more interesting screams that I'd love to see the technique explained! And you do it perfectly!
Men, please don't give yourself a hernia while doing this! XD
Good stuff Chris! Thanks, dude.
Early !
Just remember to have a good bowel movement before trying this technique!
Me trying to understand support and high chest voice and cracks erc etc etc for years and failing completely. Then Chris: Just poop man
:) keep it simple right?
hey chris, what’s the difference between reinforced falsetto and mixed voice? how can i tell when an artist used using one over the other? i know one way you can find if you’re in head voice or mixed is to slide all the way down a scale, and if you fall back into your chest voice you were in mix, but if your voice just starts to fade out then you were in head voice. but what about reinforced falsetto ?
Hey Amali! This video might help clear things up as far as how I look at terms or voice classifications. I think the terms falsetto and head voice, and even mixed voice can be a bit limiting. check this video out for a better explanation! ua-cam.com/video/hCmeW_NWlHE/v-deo.html
Hey Chris Liepe, at the moment im experimenting with my false chords to scream. I can really feel the difference between my false chords and my actual vocal chords. BUT HERE IS WHAT BOGGLES MY MIND: After my screaming training I can actually sing much better. My voice is suddenly much stronger and it sounds amazing. Can you please explain that to me?
You’re becoming more self aware in the screaming has had the side effect of helping you feel out sensation aspects of your singing!!! So cool! This is quite common!
if i'll use a small amount of support, will it be bad? then it would probably mean that im passing through the air more. so is it bad?
is the only thing that can destroy the voice is using larynx too much?
so in other words- whatever amount of support im using - it wouldn't destroy my voice, because it doesn't have anything to do with the larynx posture?
So if I understood correctly at every end line of the song we should breathe out all the air we have and take another breath,? 😊
I'm going to try this on the toilet
I sing all my notes flat how do i sing on key and the right notes? I measured the notes with this tiny device i was singing and it was all with a # behind it. So no D but D#.
I noticed when I sing songs that are played on a standard tuning on guitar it sounds off, but when I sing alice in chains for example which is in d# it sound better. Is that because of the fact that I sing flat that it sounds better because it matches the sound of the guitars better? I am so confused. I sound great singing covers but horrible trying to sing my own stuff, it sounds like i’m not on key or too low and I don’t know why exactly.
Do how to sing like Vince Neil
hey chris, so i've got a question now
when I go for a really high note, (think the end of 3 libras by a perfect circle) I can't get the note cleanly, I tense up and stuff BUT I can roast it like if it was nothing
what am I doing wrong?
I'd have to work with you more closely to help you with your tension on attempting to cleanly hit higher notes. Hitting clean notes high is a product of a well developed head voice that you're able to ease into a supported mix. Have you considered joining my Discover Your Voice PLUS or PRO program? I'd be able to walk you through how to get there! You can head over to chrisliepe.com to request an invitation!
Comment for da algorithm
Streak count: 179
OK, how many of you had to clean yourselves after trying this? Yea, me neither...
shouldn't your solar plexus firm outwards if you have a good support? 🤔
hey Chris, i have a doubt...
should i focus on my Solar Plexus more or the lower Abdominals like how to control both at the same time. When i focus on my lower abdominal then my solar plexus stops acting and vice versa.
i need your help 😭
The best way for you to get an answer here is to join my free course linked in the video description! I share in great detail how your support should work!
@@chrisliepe thank you so much ✨
React to the hellfire 🔥
I’m gonna come back to this video just for that chain of fools cover, Jesus Christ 😂😂
7:22
almost shitted
I think I've been pooping wrong... lol my lower stomach doesn't seem to engage then.
hmmm... singing will be good for you then :)
@@chrisliepe Haha fair!
Trying to push something out, you can accidentally do it, or get haemorrhoids😅
How engaged are these poop muscles supposed to be? I feel like if I really tried I could sing like that and engage them until their logical conclusion...
Have you joined my free course linked in the video info? That will really help you figure out how engaged they need to be!
