I think the hardest part about singing (besides that it already seems pretty difficult to explain) is that for every rule of what you should do and what you shouldn't do, there is someone else with an amazing voice telling you to do the exact opposite. This video seems to be pretty good (the guy can totally sing). but learning is super frustrating when you have five people telling you a different answer to what 2+2 equals and you haven't ever done math before and that they cant really explain how they got their answer. "The answer is 4 because you can kind of feel it down here and it flips at the top.. and that means the answer is 4." And I'm like.. ok... sure.. I don't know if I'm even feeling the same thing you are describing or how to get to that feeling or maybe I am, but that's not how I would describe it. Its just too damn ambiguous and then people argue if its even correct or not.

All thats in my head is "Remeaember yesterday"...

Rock singers use head voice, which is in between chest and falsetto. It’s not about strength; it’s about coordination and pacing yourself. The trick is to make a smooth transition between registers. But even rock singers tend to miss this. That’s why so many of them have to cancel shows due to vocal issues.

OMG. his head voice is perfection.

He is singing in his passaggio. AKA Mixed voice. He blends the registers together by bringing the falsetto register down to lower notes and by bringing the chest voice up into falsetto notes. He is singing in a part of his range where the chest voice is still accessible. it is not so high that he is only able to use falsetto because his chest voice doesn't reach that high. The result sounds like chest voice (rich) but is quieter and not strained. Bridging the passaggio doesnt happen over night.

This advice is right on. I used this and a couple other techniques to learn to sing Chris Cornell songs (for karaoke), but I think one thing he missed was how important warming up is. It opens the door to your range and comfort.

Saw this video when I was 14--I'm 19 now and these techniques helped me develop my mix voice in a big way!

I've had a lot of problem developing my voice, and this is hands down the best teacher i've tried. It gives you so much more control over your voice if you don't belt so hard. It's all about the amount of work you have to do that will determine how long your voice will last. Pretty obvious stuff, but many ignores this fact.

This guy is so good. Sounds even better than the studio version!

Just goes to show there are some amazing singers out there people have never heard of. He sings flawlessly.

Thank you for this! I've been doing my high notes all wrong cuz of I always thought I had to belt to hit them, but singing softer makes high notes that much easier, and they still sound good!

Thanks Bristow, I brought some DVDs a while ago and has really helped my voice...I sing in church while playing the Piano...God Bless

Thank you again for posting this. I use it all the time to hear how to hit high notes in a relaxed way.

This is an amazing singing lesson. Very powerful yet under 4 minutes. 4 short minutes of infinite value. executed with grace. Now that's an artist and a talent/intellect. Thank you.

Awesome! I'll be getting your program shortly. I'm Really looking forward to it!

as i grew older i realized the same thing,u dont scream ur balls out,u sing as softly as u can n that helps in recording really well n also if you practise with microphone n headphns,u will be lot better cos u will be able to hear all the flaws in ur vocal n correct them,specially with condenser mics.

One of the eye opener explanation for me.Thanks I always keep coming back to watch this video :)

I suddenly feel this urge to not forget what happened the day before.

You're the best vocal coach on YT thanks for this video I would buy any training DVD'S or downloads from him any day

Amazing. This video has helped me so much. I'm a natural baritone and just assumed it would be impossible for me to hit these types of notes, but after practicing I can. It might not sound good, but I can do it. haha

This is the best vocal tip on KZfaq. Great help.

Clear and concise, thank you from Maine.

OMG what a great vocal command! thank you!!

I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee you Per!! you SAVED my life!!! ;D and I love your program a lot. Thanks god I found you program.

Best rock coach I've seen.

You are amazing Per.👍🎹‼️🌹

You hit the nail on the head! Thanks

This is actually the best tip I could find on the internet for this topic. Thanks :)

Just the tips he gave here are going to help me a lot, since that's exactly what I do -- try to belt it out rather than relax and sing a little softer. Thanks Per!

Amazing control!

Wow! I think I found a good coach on how to sing rock song without straine! It's helps me a lot thank you.

your technique is so amazing :)

Thank you ! You just taught me Something I never Knew ! I'm gonna be The Greatest Singer Since Elvis ! !

amazing! I didn't think you can sing high note like this because your voice sound like low and warm.

This was awesome!

This is very yes way to rockin high pitch and very useful especially for older rocking guys . I see even some old famous rockstars do not follow this way and having problems to sing their songs they which have been singing for decades.

This is the best tip I have seen in all of youtube on this topic.. Dang.. You can sing.. What amazing control!!!

thankyou!! helped alot!

Great presentation:) I'm just learning this Urg if I only had this knowledge 30 years ago!

Best lesson ever.

Right on. I used to scream like crazy got hoarse every show. I can be way cooler now and get more edge thanks to you.

Awesome lesson! :)

Thta's frickin awesome!!!!

Muy bueno gracias! and I agree completely.

big thank you for this

THANK YOU!!! 😢

Buen maestro gracias Tanks god blessyou

That makes sense, I saw the lead singer from Foreigner on a chat show once, he sat at a piano and when he sang instead of belting out the song as I imagined he would he sat there and it just came out of him with such force that the host said, that's my problem, I am not singing with enough power. Clearly he had impeccable muscle control.

I've been screaming my lungs out to reach notes between F#4 and A#4 cause otherwise I just can't hit them, but this is exactly what I needed. You know sometimes I find myself hitting those notes effortlesly but with VEEERY low volume, maybe with practice I can match it up with the distorted screaming lol

Awesome just awesome!

its all in my head!!

Very helpful !!

Nice Hint! I'm desperately trying to hit highs with power and I'll definitely give it a try. I'm more into screaming but it's the same there: You can scream at comparably low volumes. It actually sounds to me like that high pitch singing with some grit presented here is closely related to fry singing / screaming if you'd put on more pressure on the diaphragm and let the tone stand back a little bit more.

Great Tip! Give us more video lessons please! Especialy about Rock Vocals! Please!!!

When you go for it you sound like Chris Cornell. Awesome stuff dude. Has made me feel like it's possible as I can find that soft mix but can't find the umph behind it yet. If it's just a matter of building muscle up then I'll keep at it. I've been thinking I was missing a bit :/

awesome man

Great job 👍🏾

Really good actual example

amazing wow

Thank you Per, your advice really helps. At my age I have good range...but need to control the highs better.

You're great Per !! Those high notes most of the Rock Singers they scream instead to sing thru their voice box... thank God I'm not a singer hehehe

good tips, especially the but about singing softer to get more edge. I have found that is sometimes a necessity.

awesome ..thanks a lot

I really want more range and to have no limitation. I like going all over the place with my voice an I can sing pretty high but I do not think I can sing super high. I will working on that thanks or the tip! I really want to get your cd series because I really believe it will help me be the professional singer that I wat to be.

'Head voice' is similar to falsetto range. and more intense, but different from chest voice. Falsetto is 'Bridge Over Troubled Water,' a soft breathy quality. Head voice is "Run To The Hills" in the chorus.

Which muscles are we targeting and how do we tareget these muscles? this is the 1st video that has actually given practical advice, thank you.

Thank you^^

I always sing like this to my favorite songs which are still to high for me.. And it's really helping me also for my mixed voice, I have the problem, my chest voice isnt nearly as strong as my really heavy head voice... so I can hit an A5 or B5 easily but struggle with everything between f5 and A4/B4

thank you so much

speechless... wow!!!

He's awesome :O

So nice

Good one!

thank you going to learn to sing the highest pitch with the softest tone

DO A FULL COVER PLEASE!

very good tutorial

great tips

Thank you

haha she mentioned the artists i love

very good!

Would you start working out by trying to bench 250 lbs? Then don't expect to sing high and loud right away, either.

thank you

Thx!
