If you remember I posted my shot at Iris less than a year ago, and I couldn't even sing the A4s cause I was yelling so much, and now I just sang I Remember You by SkidRow. But in this first attempt I just tried to focus on singing the high notes without straining but not sounding too soft either. I also noticed how Sebastian finishes his sentences and also use some distortion sometimes. And as I am 'a bit deaf' on the left ear (Ëœ60-70% hearing loss) it may have been easier for my head resonance to overpower the headphones. But maybe it wasn't that loud, just the resonance in my head that overpowered the headphones. Sometimes my voice was loud enough that I could not hear the backing track on the headphones. Yeah, I followed the resonance, and the vocals are loud. That is, he sang the longest part of the note clean, then a little rough or gruff at the end, which gives the illusion that it was gruff. Another thing I have notice about ole' Bach is he will sometimes end a note rough. To get around the soundcloud I just used a different file (a copied file made before the 1st upload to soundcloud) and renamed it. Still, it was hard enough for me to sing the entire song in only one take, as I would lose my breath in the chorus. As this is my first relative success singing a song with such high notes, although not sounding good yet, I was just trying to sing the notes with resonance, which I was able to do with a relative ease, the only exception the highest notes at the end, when I kind of cheated a little. Hi aravindmadis, thanks for listening and the tips. How did you get across the soundcloud ban? This is what works for me, so try it out! This will likely cause more air flow and will lead to your voice sounding more breathy(which also happened to me :-) ), but you can sharpen the resonance by changing the shape of your mouth, by either making it wide or making it round(like when you say to). I used to have a similar issue until I found a way to sing from deep inside even for the headvoice. Did you try involving more of the diaphragm. You are able to hit the notes, but it sounds a little lacking power.
