Recorded My Singing Today...


Guest Mirei

Hello everyone...

I recorded my singing of a German song on my computer today (Widmung, "Dedication", by Schumann / Liszt), and was wondering what you guys think about it?

I uploaded it to this URL: http://www.sendspace.com/file/5rg2d5

I haven't ever shown anyone my singing in this voice before, because I think it sounds really weird... I had to change the key (by a LOT) of the song to match my voice too. Please honestly tell me what you think... does it sound weird?? Forced?? Unnatural?? How do you think the lower sections sound, how do you think the higher sections sound?

I was sloppy with my pronunciation (didn't roll the R's for example) so don't pick on that :P it's because I had looked around for a suitable piece to practise for a couple of hours before that and my voice was already tired from trying them out when I recorded this.

Looking forward to your comments...

Dear Mirei,

I am very impressed, it does sound natural and unforced fro the most part, a little harder for you to hold the low notes - a tendency that most have is to let the chest resonance sneak back in - you avoided that and it sounded very good.

I was listening on my lap top so I will PM you with more information sometime after work when I can listen through a better sound system.

Very, very good.

Love ya,

Sally

Mirei....

Wow....that was a lot more than I was expecting, Sweetheart!

Did you play the piano..?

Your voice is excellent and as Sally said, keep it out of the chest!

You sound great!

HUGGS!

Sally I would be glad if you do listen to it more closely later!

I feel that my voice sounds like sandpaper... I don't really know how to get rid of that coarseness...

And yes my lower voice is quite weak isn't it?

Donna, no the piano is just a MIDI sequence!

I shifted it up by a fourth though. In its original key, it is very much for a tenor...

I found a video of the piano transcription part in the original key:

Thank you for your comments, Sally and Donna Jean!

      I agree @Birdieto just "fit in", is what drove us to therapy. I'm not fitting in just to please someone with a closed mind. At least you know who your fair weather friends are now.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Yesterday in the lobby some of the residents were talking with me. One asked, "how come in all the TV commercials at the centre you don't appear in any of them?"   I explained that, "I'm an embarrassment to the centre and they don't know what to do with me." I get edited out!   Quite the differing options with the ladies at the table as some of them said, "that's discrimination", while others said, "they can see why."   Another lady said, "you would fair better if you cut your hair and went back to overalls, you should strive to fit in!"   Their opinions are as meaningful to me as rubbish. I did 45 years of trying to "fit in", and not doing that again. 😉

      Gosh, missed Monday again.   Did you know that Producer Keith Oslen was distraught because the duo his recorded Buckingham-Nicks first album went nowhere? In walked Mick Fleetwood also distraught because once again Flleetwood Mac lost a guitarist in Bob Welsh and he was at least going studio shopping and came to Sound City in LA because he'd heard the drum sound they got there was incredible. He asked Oslen to play something recorded there. Olsen played some of Buckingham-Nicks and Fleetwood loved the sound of the guitarist and wanted Buckingham. Olsen said he comes with Nicks because Olsen managed both. Fleetwood didn't want Nicks but eventually the remaining Mac members said okay and next thing you know - the Fleetwood Mac that scored a huge following was born. Sadly right after the "Fleetwood Mac" album and before "rumours" was recorded, the band got huge headed and got rid of Oslen so they didn't have to play him a lot of music they wanted to keep. Olsen did ok after by recording Ozzy Osbourne, the Grateful Dead, Whitesnake, Pat Benatar, Heart, Santana, Saga, Foreigner, Scorpions, Journey, The Babys, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Joe Walsh, 38 Special, and Eric Burdon & the Animals, among others. BTW - Olsen was also a members in 1967 of a band called Music Machine (not the James Taylor one) that scored a huge hit with the song "Talk Talk"

      Still on contentment high from Sunday.
    • Heather Shay
      CONTENTMENT The relentless pursuit of happiness often overshadows the more subtle yet profound emotional state of contentment. While happiness may be a fleeting high, contentment is the gentle hum of satisfaction that resonates through the soul, offering a sustainable path to life satisfaction. Oscar Wilde's poignant observation encapsulates this truth: "True contentment is not having everything, but in being satisfied with everything you have."
