Fred/Gerry- (and anybody else reading)-
Right off the bat here— PLEASE remember that this post is from someone who knows NOTHING about how to sing- let alone play and sing.
I seem to sound the worst when I kind-of “half-sing”. Hard to put into words- but you know what I mean.
For me, that’s when I’m in between singing high and low, chest and head, loud and soft, whatever— just kind-of lightly half-singing. There’s nothing good about it: weak, weird, soft….. bad.
So I “asked around”– and was told one thing consistently– “”stop half-assing it- go all out. Not necessarily LOUDER, just “all-in”. THAT is the important part””.
“”The weakness and inconsistency comes directly from “messing with it” as you’re singing””.
He also said- “focus on clear pronunciation. Keeps things cleaner”.
Again– these are not MY thoughts- but they come from someone I think knows what they’re talking about. Just passing them on…..
When I tried singing and recording it the other day- it seemed to give me better results- (a little less bad😉)
Maybe this helps?
