Answers:
I want to first establish that ANYTHING I say here is ONLY meant as CONSTRUCTIVE criticism!. I don't want this to come off as bashing or anything rude!. Okay!? Good!
To start off, I think you're talented!. I would kill to play the guitar and have your looks!. Lol!. I'm not kidding!. I'm not a looker!. I can tell you have charisma and grace!. This is very, very good for performers!
But, I have some things to point out to you!. First of all, I don't play the guitar, so I don't know!. I don't mean to be rude, but were you playing the song on key!? Sometimes the playing is off and that gets you off, too!.
I don't know what you are in choir, you sound to me like you're in the middle of alto or soprano!. So, maybe a high-ish alto or low-ish soprano!.
To show off your voice you have to have a clear point of referrence!. You have to know your range, know your voice, your tone, your breathing!.
You have CLEAR potential!!!!!!!! I think you just have to practice!!!!!!
I do agree with someone here that I didn't quite understand the words of the song!. I, having near heard this song before, was a bit confused!. But, this can easily be fixed!. You just have to make sure your tone is clear and your words are, too!. Diction is extremely important!. If you're in choir, you know how important it is when your director cuts you off!. But, the director always wants to hear the t's and s's!. Consontants must be crisp and clear!. Vowels must be round!. For example, you're shooting singing the "a" in "car," not the "a" in "appale!." It's like the difference between a country accent and a British one, if that makes any sense!. You don't want to sound bad on your vowels cuz that's when people start saying you sound nasal!. But, they don't know how to explain it!.
Now, the most important thing here is BREATHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BREATHE, BREATHE, AND BREATHE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You MUST, MUST support your notes with good breathing!. As my voice lessons teacher used to say, FYT - Fill Your Tank!!!!!!!! For starters, you need go posture!. Sometimes sitting and playing could take away from the singing!. Don't get me wrong, I think it's awesome that you play!. I wish I could! But, you should probably practice playing and singing separately for now!.
Standing up and singing makes it so much easier!. You need to really be working on your breathing!. It has to come from deep, deep within your stomach and ribs - not from your chest!. That won't give you enough air!. I think one of the causes for you being a little off singing was breathing!.
If you look back on every single one of my answers on singing, I ALWAYS emphasize breathing! Practice breathing!!!!!!!!!!!!! Deep, deep breaths! You don't know how wonderful it is to breathe well! Now that I have done better breathing, I can hold notes for about a minute!
You might want to warm up with an easy song that you know or some vowel exercises!. For high, I go half a step up in "fla fla fla fla fla" let your vowels come out nice and round!. For low notes you could do "eo!.!.!.eo" half a step down!. also, you could do the classic bumble bee warm ups that really work on high vowels!.
I would really practice the breathing first, though! You have a good voice to begin with and OMG, you do NOT suck! So, don't worry about that!
When you sing from the heart, people will know that!. You strike me as the type of person who does that!. So, sing from the heart, and with practice (AND BREATING!!!!!!!!!)!.!.!.and you'll be good to go!
Best of luck!
I'd like to hear your voice with karaoke background or something where you're not distracted by the guitar to give you a better critique!.!.!.But, that's as good as I got!Www@Enter-QA@Com
