Like EXCUSE me …. The BAWDY ….. The MOSAIC see-through DRESS … the HAIR…. The MUG….. GAWD DAMNNN there was really something else in the air that day !!!😩😩

You gotta be a different kind of guy to pull this off 😂😂

I’m 19 now and only started properly singing at 16 and never had any training before then .
I took voice lessons consistently for three months from 16-17 but stopped because they were too expensive .
My vocal coach only taught me basic scales which I still even found hard … ( I was that bad that I couldn’t even match a note on the piano 😂 i literally wouldn’t have a BREEZE if I was off key ) .
I honestly thought I was tone deaf for so long 😭.

I never understood when someone told me to “ sing in the key of g etc “ since I never learned music theory so I decided to improve pitch my own way not with scales either .
Any song I wanted to learn eg “my way” by Frank Sinatra , I would search the A Capella version of that song on YouTube and OBSESSIVELY listen to it over and over again . Then I would put the acapella on my tv , go to my vocal pitch monitor app on my I phone and track each individual pitch that he sings on every word and then pause the video and repeat the pitch that he sang. If was wrong I would do it again and again until I got it right . Eventually I started to built a map in my head of what , for example an e4 sounded and felt like in my head so I didn’t need the vocal pitch monitor as much and now I can mostly sing that song on key .

I know it’s unconventional but it works for me .
My vocal range when I started at age 16 was a limited a2-d4 and d4 felt very strained and painful for me . Through training myself to sing songs
that were originally high for me in their original keys and never transposing them down I now gained over eight semitones to my upper chest register and can VERY comfortably sing a d4/e4/f4 and belt a g4/g#4/a4 . Meanwhile people told me I would stay at that range . ( still don’t know if I’m a baritone or a tenor or something else … I’ve heard baritenor 🤷‍♂️) .

I still have a long way to go but I love singing so much and will never stop .

Also I really appreciate all the constructive feedback you guys have been giving me the past 1.5 years haha 😂.

This time with a shirt on and hopefully better 😂

Ok this is the last one I promise 😂😂

Do you guys like it ?
