Members sweetsong Posted January 31, 2011 Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 What artist do they compare you to, if any? What do people say about your voice after gigs? In general what are the comments people have told whether they are professionals or just music lovers? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ido1957 Posted January 31, 2011 Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 I get a lot of Clapton on the forums - although I can't hear the resemblance . My last gig was with three bands - the first band blew everyone away (it wasn't us). The wife of the first bands singer was somebody I had worked with five years ago. She said I had a really good voice - so coming from someone who knows good vocals and never knew I sang was a nice compliment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators davie Posted January 31, 2011 Moderators Share Posted January 31, 2011 I've had many mixed opinions on my voice. Things like: "good" "above average" ...? "a better musician than a singer" "your voice isn't suit for rock" "a low voice" etc.. and the list goes on I haven't really seriously gigged or anything. Occasionally play for friends and a couple of open mics years ago, but nothing serious. I don't really think I'm good enough to gig. For artist comparisons.. I have no idea. I've heard some things, but I think they're a lot different from my voice. You checked out my acappellas, right? lol. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DukeOfBoom Posted January 31, 2011 Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 everyone says my voice is "yucky" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DukeOfBoom Posted January 31, 2011 Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 what do people say about your voice? I would imagine: 1) "wow kiddo, you can't hold a tune to save your life", and 2) "my 2 year old deaf sister has better rhythm than you" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sweetsong Posted January 31, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 Oh yeah Davie, I have heard your accappella's. Yove got a great voice! It's sweet-toned and low-toned at different moments. You prabably have good range. If you have a desire to gig, you should go for it and keep practicing your craft. where'd you get this "not good enough to gig" nonsense from? lol. And the freestyling was pretty good to you had that down, it was entertaining..so..get out there and gig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sweetsong Posted January 31, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 Actually, I have trained professionals and certified producers, build me up, not tear me down and HELP me with my weak spots.

Members grace_slick Posted January 31, 2011 Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 People on the forum here, lovely people, have said my voice is sweet, ethereal, really good, etc...I've been compared to Karen Carpenter, Kate Bush, Mazzy Star...lol. I've never done gigs or had lessons or talked to professionals / experts so have had no comments in that regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sweetsong Posted January 31, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 yeah I listened to your stuff. I agree. never been into folk, but hey Grace, you should do a song like this: I think you would kick some ass doing this style. You would be able to pull it off really well. Your voice is much more angelic than mine..so I don't think id be able to do a song like this..but anyways listen to it, what do you think?

Members sweetsong Posted January 31, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 o bytheway I apologize for the fiasco i didnt even mean what i said, and i didnt even get a chance to listen to your tracks. the boring comment doesnt mean anything either i was just being an ass but i can say that folk isnt my taste thats all. maybe we could learn from eachother... I genuinly came to this forum to connect with other singers and learn, and i got bashed so It want a really pleasant experience when I wanted a pleasant experience.

Members grace_slick Posted January 31, 2011 Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 ...are you actually being NORMAL to me?? lol Not offensive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sweetsong Posted January 31, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 yeah im being normal... i just dont want to be vulnerable about a personal vulnerable thing (like my own vocals) and get unnecessary negativity. Im starting to like being here and id like to engage more by maybe even posting an accapella or two or more originals im just really sensitive about my voice and i went into a rage. Im gifted with natural vocal talent and songwriting skills and I know that it just wouldnt hurt to be around positive people to enhance that.

Members grace_slick Posted January 31, 2011 Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 Well...you do notice that I never actually bad-mouthed your voice until you'd told me my music basically sucked and was boring. I actually haven't even LISTENED to your clips to be honest. I will tomorrow though. I'm behind in my listening to people's clips over the weekend. What I can say to you is this forum is AMAZING for giving confidence and good helpful feedback on vocals...also songwriting if you write your own stuff. I wouldn't have even written a song if it wasn't for this forum. (although clearly in your opinion the world would be a better place if I HADN'T ever written any songs, eh?)

Members sweetsong Posted January 31, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 cool, skip the first song and go to "Rush" and Red Wrath" they are just samples not full songs so keep that in mind, just 30 sec. and 1 min. samples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members grace_slick Posted January 31, 2011 Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 Ok, I'll listen tomorrow. I'll be completely honest and unbiased in my feedback.

Members grace_slick Posted January 31, 2011 Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 Good terms, eh? We'll see. The good terms didn't begin until this thread...I've responded to other posts in other threads that are not QUITE so kindly. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members grace_slick Posted February 1, 2011 Members Share Posted February 1, 2011 Not sure if this is even required now since what's her name's been banned, but I listened to Rush...it's definitely NOT my type of music but I know it's got a big demand in clubs and stuff...it was ok. Nothing much happened with it though...vocals could've been more echo-y to add more ambience. Red Wrath...it's kinda hard to comment strictly vocally cause I don't know what the "tune" was meant to be...but meh. It was ok. You'd have to sing something else for me to really be able to comment. Something with more of a melody. There. I've done my civic duty to one of the many morons in the world. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
