This is such a great leasson. The tips for mix voice and compression are incredibly valuable. Can't wait for that vibrato lesson, because the 'artifical' vibrato your produced here sounded beautiful. It's certainly a very unique perspective into vibrato, as most vocal coaches claim that that kind of vibrato has to be natural.

Impressive video. Cornell has been one of my favorite vocalists since my teenagehood, Badmotorfinger and Superunknown absolutely blew my head. I also loved Audioslave, as I was a huge Rage Against The Machine fan, even though his live performances were very uneven at that time. When he came back with SG in 2010, I was blown away by his voice being completely back. I still remember where I was, what I was doing, the whether (thunderstorms, heavy rain... signs from the gods crying) on that fateful May 18th 2017. I can't wait for the new remaining Soundgarden tracks to finally be released. Thanks for that video, it's absolutely amazing. I'm a drummer, but I'm really fascinated by other instruments and I would totally be unable to theorize, deconstruct and impersonate all these great singers.

As soon as you move to your singing voice it sounds so open, sharp, and pleasing to the ears. Quite inspirational. I’m happy to hear your analysis about Cornell’s vibrato. I have not heard that from others, esp about forced vibrato. Looks like it’s not the worst thing in the world to force vibrato. Anyways just wanted to appreciate your voice. I emailed to learn about your lesson. Peace!!

hi! Just found you, I've been watching your videos and besides being awesome, I have a couple suggestions: first, if you would be so kind to arrange your content in playlists, that would be amazing so I don't have to scroll and search through dozens of videos. And the second one, is if you can do a small lesson video on how to keep a straight note - I seem to have a big difficulty with it, so I'm forced to do a vibrato even in the times I don't want to. thank you so much for your content.
@SterlingRJackson 2 жыл бұрын
Got the playlists setup. As for your problem, I’ve been teaching for over ten years and I’ve never heard anyone with this issue. My advice to you or any student having this problem would be to simply start from the speaking voice and then start slowly adding support and other “singing qualities”. When I’m doubt, I constantly give this advice. Simply make the note with the same musculature that you would for speaking (obviously you’re not using vibrato with that) and then build from there and find the problem area/s. Hope that helps out.
@DenisMorissetteJFK 2 жыл бұрын
You were able to obtain so much from Cornell because your tonality is so similar to his. I have come to the same conclusion with John Mayer. I can fairly replicate whatever he's doing because our voices are so similar. Yet, he does not make my Top 15 favorite singers! What matters is that he is a perfect match for me!

Hi Sterling. When I try being nasal, in the lower part, i can feel my throat being engaged, but when i go higher, it tends to "hand off" the weight, so i dont feel the throat anymore but the sound is weak unlike yours. Do i need to force something from my nose or something to make it sound fuller?
@SterlingRJackson Жыл бұрын
Not forcing anything. It sounds like you’re used to utilizing tension in your jaw and throat. You need to practice recognizing that this is happening and that it shouldn’t be. Place a thumb under your chin and see how often this muscle engages while singing. In short it shouldn’t. Start learning to produce your sound in chest voice the same as you speak without jaw tension. That should help.

About 9:30 the word "to shout" is not being mentioned. It's "crying". I might be kind of interesting information that in German you "must not shout" is a commandment that's being taught. Isn't it the same in the classical fach, at least, in America? So "what you're proposing" is to "shout yourself" through to the higher range. I would agree. But I shan't believe that that's what you are saying. What's the difference between to cry and to shout in that context? My guess is: loudness. Now it's getting interesting, as I find some paradox refering to learning. According to my experience, there is no way to not go through a shouting stage. I think that's the only way the muscles, actually the vocal chords, may gain sheer versatilty to calm down and get down to the sound of silence which then may be termed "crying". What is belting, by the way.

Chris Cornell must be some British (I guess, or American, anyway:) not German (what I am) star. Trying to switch from science to comedy: To my knowledge it is is true only in English: "You know my name". Funny side of your work? I had to discover Cornell, whose name I did not know, doing james Bond song. I very much underrated his voice. Which may show in the beginning of my own first try (edit: as it says, it's the second, I need to take to): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b7iIprhptb_Fqmg.html a second try I was so surprised about being in need to take to in spite of -ostentatiously- not caring about my reputation). You are right elaborating on nasality. Maybe a nasal voice tends to be underrated subconsciously by listerners as they do associate strength or endurance etc, just a tought of mine. Anyway, thank you for your advice on nasality. To me, most interesting on that topic, cannot say why. It's just very interesting what you say! It sounds like you know what you are talking about. Forget about theory, right, so to speak. Never mind! Keep up the very good word. Thanks a lot!
