a vocal cover this time o.O

[Theos Sairin]

Well I decided to actually upload onto youtube a video from my webcam with terrible audio and all, which I almost NEVER do... basically in an effort to improve my confidence with performing vocals, and what better place than the internet to do it?

 

The song is Michael Buble - Cry Me A River, some of you may like it, most of you will hate it, but please just give it a listen anyway... If you've never the song or of Buble in general, it's jazz not my usual style, but that just makes it more interesting...

 

I ask those of you who know what you be saying for your constuctive criticism, the rest of you just critize XD I posted in the description of the video as well, but I haven't sung for 3 months, I know there are parts that are off, but there are definitely parts that sound good to me... I'm not a singer first and foremost, only as a hobby really and for college, so I'm not gonna kid myself to being amazing XD

 

but yeah, tell me what you guys think =) thumbs up to the video as well, regardless if you like it or not =D XD

 

BY THE WAY as an extra note, it may sound quiet at the beginning, but bear in mind my voice peaks the sound, so do not be tempted to turn it up too loud XD

So you like singing! I wish I could sing well. I'd woo bitches like keebler elves on cookies.

 

Michael Buble is a very difficult voice to cover, but you did a pretty damn good job. Your secondhand serenade cover is prime time. Harmonizing you added in is great. What mic do you use?. I have to tune my guitar a whole step down to sing to secondhand serenade stuff.

this is actually enjoyable. I feel that your voice could have tremendous power. but for now it is good. and circut, dont be a pussy and tune down a half step, thats for faggots. you know youre singing right if it hurts.

UPDATE.

New version, recorded at college today... and I'm pretty fookin happy at the result, definitely the best recording I have done of any song so far. Makes the original pale in comparison.

It's real nice. Good tone. It's not cheesy like this new Rat-pack sounding Las Vegas act (sorry I have to rip on Buble... Lol). Really dig your vibrato; you should sing in a Roxy Music-esque rock band -- your voice would be perfect.

 

I could pick this apart, note-for-note and all that jazz, but I'd rather just note a few things... watch your intonation when you drop down.. you bend a little downward, and there's also the note at 3:22~3:23 which stuck out. And just one more thing, to add (or take-away, if you will) is some more decrescendo. Part of this style of singing is paying close attention to the ending of phrases -- it's great to become big during those moments, but I feel as if you need a smidgen more on your softer pallet. This is just a suggestion, every musician has their own opinion.
