  1. Honestly, it's all music to me. Some incredibly awesome bands have lyrics literally as long as this; Blah blah blah blah, Blah blah blah, Blah blah blah blah, Blah blah blah Blah blah blah blah, Blah blah blah Blah blah blah blah, Blah blah blah Blah blah blah blah, Blah blah blah Blah blah blah blah, Blah blah blahBlah blah Blah blah blah And their songs have been very influencial. If the song sounds good and seems true and creative, then it's fine by my book.. I don't like sellouts.
  2. I was given a metallic harmonica, pretty small, with 1-10 holes. I'm assuming they're reeds. Now, I've messed around with it on and off for awhile, nothing serious, and I still know nothing, so If anyone here could help me, I'd appreciate it. I try to go by sheet music, but it sounds like random noises to me.. Help?
  3. Uhh.. So, I can't leave my tounge flat? Gotta curl it up towards the roof of my mouth when I sing? The root of my tounge is strained when I do that.. :s What should I do?
  4. I like him because he's different. His voice is very unique, and his lyrical style is interesting to me.. I like too many artists to name. Too many styles of rock to choose from, too.
  5. Well, I know I'm going to look like a fool for saying this, but I took the vocal track off of a song off of the game "Rock Band" and tried singing so that I'd only hear my voice on the television. I figured it'd be better to do that than nothing.. Am I hearing my real voice coming out of the speakers, or am I still getting interference? I compared the microphone-to-television voice to the cam voice, and it sounded so much more like me. The fuzzy photo concept makes a lot of sense to me. Never heard my voice recorded, so the crappy quality made me think I sounded like that. lol I actually sound really nice, though I will still sing daily for an hour or more like I've always been doing.
  6. Oh, sorry. I take things way too seriously.. Some of his lyrics have deep meanings and simply sound good to me. So he's ONE of my favorites. I have other influences..
  7. Meh. You sounded pretty damn good to me, although your voice didn't sound light or horrible at all. Do you mean the voice you hear in your head, or your recorded voice? Recorded voice sounds fairly deep.. My head voice is deep, and my recorded voice was even deeper. But that's because of horrible sound quality on the cam corder. I heard myself on the TV while singing into a microphone (hoping that I would be hearing my true voice, since it's being projected from the TV speaker) and it sounded very nice to me. NOT incredibly good, but good where I'm comfortable enough to hear it and be somewhat proud of it. I guess I fixed my problem. Still working on getting a recording for you guys.. Gonna probably sing a long to a random song (Of course, without the person's voice in it.)
  8. I sang in a microphone into my friend's TV, and it sounded a lot better. I'm not just hearing myself through my head still, correct? I heard it from the TV speaker.. Sounded MUCH better. Sounded more like my head voice (Unlike the cam video), only a little deeper or lighter, not sure.
  9. Alright. Expect to have some kind of recording by tonight. Might not be the best quality, so that may be the reason why it sounds different, correct? It sounds deeper on the recording, and my voice sounds different. Almost like a different person.
  10. Yes, it isn't the end of the world when you play the wrong note, because it can always be changed. But my voice sounds like one wrong note to me. :s I guess I'll practice harder and hope that someday it sounds good to me. Until then, I guess I'm not playing at any open mic nights.. heh Any way for me to hear how I sound to others without having to record my voice? Can I cover my ears and listen? Sounds alright like that, but it doesn't sound like my voice in the recording. By the way, I might be going to a recording studio today.. My friend knows someone there. Might be able to get an honest opinion.
  11. Is David Bowie worth mentioning here? I'm a big fan of him..
  12. I heard my voice on a camera yesterday, which my friend recorded with just to see how we sounded.. Needless to say, my voice sounds absolutely nothing like my head-voice, and it kills me to know that I have such a dull, deep/lifeless voice. I don't really mind having a deep voice, but my tone sounds really nerdy and annoying to others, apparently. I don't know how people could even bother talking to me.. :s To make a long story short, I get frustrated, he tries to console me, even goes so far as to say I sound really good, yet I know I sound like shit. Because we all know perfect pitch means diddly squat when you have a non-appealing voice, and mine sounds so very dull and lifeless. When I heard myself singing recorded, it sounded to me like I was half drunk or asleep. My friend just says I'm shy or somthing stupid like that. Thinks I'm shy about my voice, which is totally untrue. I like my voice how I hear it in my head, I just loathe the voice that others hear. I loathe it enough to take a knife to my throat. So, anyways, is this all in my head, possibly? Can a voice sound horrible to it's owner, yet sound very good for others? It literally sounds horribly weak and dull to me, yet it sounds fine to me in my head.. My friend said the recording was good, though I strongly disagree.. Am I deaf to my own abilities? :s
  13. After recently listening to my voice on a digital camera recording, I'm seriously starting to hate myself. :[ My voice sounds very deep and gravelly, can't really describe it. Sounded dull and lifeless to me when I heard myself sing, yet my friend said that I sounded really good. I was almost going to cry.. Left his house in a fit of frustrated anger. :s I'm not even sure if I ever want to sing again.. I have perfect pitch and all that, but it means nothing if my voice is too deep and nerdy-sounding to have any energy.
