The louder the radio is, the better I sing...

When I sing I think I sound good but when I record me... Oh God! I cringe so much... I sound like a dying cat😂😟

Holy cow that open mouth thing works. I could always sing notes accurately, but my singing always sounded just how I spoke, but spoken in a set of notes. That open mouth thing changed that for sure!

I sound so monotone that makes me yawn while singing

let's say I'm doing everything right, but my song still sounds "emotionless"... how do I fix that?

I've rarely ever raised my voice I just feel like screaming

i do open my mouth i do sing vowels correctly sometimes, but when i record my voice it still sounds like im talking instead of singing

good tip Ive been talk singing for so long and your simple idea changes the sound so much

I just cannot believe how much this little technique affected my singing...while normally I sound like I'm putting no efforts in my singing n just a person who seemed so bored... Trying this actually made it sound like I was feeling some part of it...obvs it can't be applied everywhere...but wherever it should be applied...it made a big difference!!! I mean I've watched so many videos tried so many things read so many blogs listened recorded listened trying to copy how they pronounce words while singing but this one actually blew me away!!! Tysm...I'm so looking forward to more of your videos....n m so glad i stumbled across this one❤️❤️❤️

thank you. I was always afraid of opening my mouth but this little tips helped a lot! thanks

Instructions unclear, still don't sound like Freddie Mercury

1:43 vs 2:43 vs 4:21 this should help you compare

I just watched this video and I decided to try this and record myself singing and oh my gosh I could really hear a difference granted I do need to work on my notes but it definitely made a difference thank you so much 😁

this was definitely helpful and appreciate how short and sweet it was

Hi Kim, thank you for posting this video. I've been searching for a long time for a solution to my monotone drone vocal and you've just hit the spot for me in understanding what I have been doing wrong and what I need to do to prevent it, thank you once again.

I love the way you explain in such a simplistic way thank you

This is exactly what I have been going through thank you so much for talking about this it helps many people like me

Thank you, i've browsed a lot of videos but you explained it well enough for me. People with no vocal lessons, coaching or prior experience just feel kind of lost. or well that's how i felt.

Yes! This was SUPER helpful!!

That was like a spell 😳 It DOES work! Great tips!

Super random... but you just make me smile. Your smile and energy are beautiful. And thanks for the tips 😊

oh my god I tried opening my mouth more and that was exactly the tip I needed thank you so much for this video it made an incredible difference

So helpful thank you!!

Thank you so much!!! that made me 100x better instantly. I had no idea why I just sounded soooo flat. Feels weird to open my mouth that wide

Awesome Kim! Love this.

Tucked my hands behind my ears and went to say “Huuuh” to see if it really amplified the sound- My immediate reaction was “Was the hell?”

Her: "Remember those walls I build, well baby there tumbling down." Me: Wow that sounded good. Her: Ok so that sounded bland and boring... Me: ....

If you did a whole "warm-up" song I might actually follow through doing it with you. Reckon it's a trust thing. : ) Good vid. : ) 💜

Nice video beautiful, with nice explanation😊👍👍

Thank you!This helped a lot!

This helped a lot! Thanks Kim!

Thank you so much Kimberly Smith

Both tips were amazing thanks :)

That is amazing. Did you come up with this technique. I like how you added the Shakespeare part because that really makes a difference when you train yourself to sing that way

Great and funny excercises. Thank you!

Well all I can say it's a life changing video

beautifully explained. learned it much later in my career.

This was so helpful!!! Thanks a lot!!!

I’ve trying to fix this for as long as I can remember but I didn’t know what it was called. Thank you!

This was so helpful thank you!!

good heavens you have a magnetic personality. keep it up much respect!

Very good tip. As I seem to talk when I sing.

this technique of yours helped me to open up my voice and those hands behind the ears is a crazy thought but its a great idea to be able to hear own voice

wow great advice! thank you very much! and you look gorgeous.

That was very helpful. I noticed a difference right off.

Great advice! sounds way better

Your eyes are absolutely amazing!! Great video thanks!!

I dont understand all you say, cos of my bad English, but in spite of that, I UNDESTAND, its very well explained and showed, good tips -Thank you very much !!

Good video! Thanks Kimberly. :)

Loved that! Really helped me immediately

You're tips were so good. You're so cool and funny .

she kind of looks like Gaga sometimes

How can i send you my record so you can help me with me singing... cause i am so shy to sing in front of people... i have been told that i can sing but when i listen to my record, it isn't something that i expected... i am trying to find someone who can help....

Thank-you, Thank-you.

This was a great video thank you ! I think this helped me to sound better but I keep finding every time I sing I get worse (a less smooth/ shaker sound and can hit less notes ) and struggle more . I don’t know its because I’m straining , if I’m not properly singing from my diaphragm or if I just haven’t noticed I’m a bad singer till now or what lol , I also would love some tips on just how to make my voice sound better (I sing musical theatre) , anyone got advice ? Much thanks xxxxx

this was super helpful thank you

This was really helpful…thank you 🙃 Though I have a bit of trouble finishing the whole song after I get that part right☹️

Wow it's always the little things 👌

Wonderful thanks

thank you this helped me out a lot

Thanks I'll give it a go

OMGWADDDD thank you soooo MUCHHHH I noticed a huge difference 😍😍😍

This is helpful but im trying to audition for jyp and I need a soft clear voice and this kind of makes my voice sound deeper.

Good video.

Great Advice 💛

I will practice this.

Hi Kimberley,you are cool teacher

Great advice! Tysm

You r right bt what you r doing to make it sound more presentable is that you r using vibrato which I don't have and really want to learn it....please make a video on how to learn vibrato fast

Amazing! The Shakespeare stuff really works haha

THIS IS ABIG PROBLEM FOR ME PLAY GUITAR BUT CANNOT SING, SO WILL PRACTICE THIS LIKE CRAZY

Her eyes are amazing

Wow! Thanks

How can I tell if someone's really singing or if it's sing talking? Like at: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jpxyZ5ikx8zHeWw.htmlm18s (don't judge my taste in music) I feel like he's sing talking but someone else said it's purely singing.

Oh wow thanks so much

Sure helped🔥

Sheer Brilliance!!!

Thank you

Leave a comment if you have questions. Yes, I have a few! Why don't you sound monotoned, flat, or like talking to me when you tried to mimic the problem you're trying to help us fix? Do we actually have a different problem? Because when i "attempt" to sing I am 100% just talking and I don't know how to fix that and none of the "tricks" on youtube have helped change that at all. I just talk louder? there's like zero rhythm. Haaallllpp? :D

I’m trying to play guitar and sing and I cannot believe all of this worked😂🤦‍♂️

By the gods, it actually helped

Amazing ! 🥰

when i sing especially high i tend to feel like all of the noise is coming from the top of my voice box in my throat, is this where i should feel it or am i doing it wrong??

You have a beautiful voice even when you talk.

Wow instantly better omg 😲 😍

Thanks, I've always had problems with opening my mouth more when I speak in English (not my mother tongue) that’s why I stick to songs that I can sing with a deeper pitch because when I go up an octave I feel like that’s not my actual voice and it sounds like a girl voice instead or sum that does not sound like it fits the song but with this I can try and sing some other stuff and playing more with my voice :)

This must be why I sound much better when I'm belting and using falsetto

Omg i think i have same prob closing my mouth while singing....thx for tip

I kinda know what your saying but at the same time I don't but thank you anyway you were very helpful

thankyou

Hi Kim , I still thinking that my voice is just not good to hear , is there any possibility that I send you an audio singing so you can help me find the problem or is just that my voice is not good for singing?

I'm monotone in general

U rock!

Pretty

Me reading comments with that exercise

Ive been singing for awhile and i cant seem to get a better sound. My singing is on pitch but its like lazy sounding. Idk what im doing wrong. Ive followed tips all over youtube but cant seem to get it.

Kimberly Smith what about Eddie Vedder???? Sometimes he barely opens his mouth when he's singing live, and it sounds good., ps: I really do like your way of teaching

in my head I sound like myles kennedy, a very full sound with lots of distortion when it's required but can clean up beautifully, when i record myself, it is clear that I do not sound like that, it sounds like I'm trying to sing when someone's sleeping next to me, it sounds like i'm very quiet, but I know I have a very loud voice, I've sung before at gigs whilst drumming with no mic and can be heard at the back of the venue. The distortion is also different, it's definitely there when i record myself, but it sounds like vocal when you wake up in the morning and ur voice is very deep and croaky (men anyway) also my voice is very shaky when holding one note, but when moving the pitch around it stays strong

I struggle with my own music… I can sing like many artists on radio with range but when it comes to having range with my own music I can’t figure out how to produce it and make it flow better lol

Thanks. This is my biggest problem and I’m scared I’ll get kicked of my choir soon. 😕
