Posted on July 2, 2009 - by admin

What music genre should I pursue with my singing voice?

Please click on the link, I need some advice: http://cid-16d4a527b09ed5f0.skydrive.live.com/browse.aspx/My%20Mini-Singles

The other day someone busted me making fun of the guy sings “Amore.” I was singing it in a deep voice. She asked me to have a try at some Michael Buble songs. I tried singing Michael Buble and that’s how the first recording of Come Fly With Me.

I killed that song in many areas, but it was my first ever time actually singing. I’ve never taken singing lessons before and had never sung that genre before.

Someone at work put my song up all over the intranet and immediately I had 50 fans in the office. After a request to hear more, I then recorded (and ruined) What a Wonderful World and You Are My Sunshine. Someone told me I sounded like Frank Sinatra. I had never heard of Frank Sinatra before in my life. When I heard him for the first time in my life yesterday, someone told me to give My Way a go. I had never heard of this song before.

The recording of this song was my first attempt of this song, and it was also the first song that I sang from my lungs, and not my throat, hence the reason for the deeper tone.

That song (which was supposed to be a draft) became an immediate hit amongst my ever-growing fan base, and in light of my success in singing songs ofter only three days of it, I enrolled myself in a Singing Academy, where I’ll receive vocal training, and some support in recording a debut album to send to various agents. I’ve been asked to sing for the first time live, in front of 150 people at an upcoming corporate event.

After all of these developments in three days, I’m starting to think that with a lot of training, I might be able to turn this into a career and follow Sinatra and Buble’s footsteps.

I really like swing music, and I would love to have a career singing this type of music, but the problem is that I don’t think that swing sells anymore. And it would require a rescue attempt.

A fellow Australian (naturally gifted, unlike a “wannabe” like me) Gabriella Cilmi has made success of her song “Sweet About Me” and that’s an old style of music. Yet, her song stayed on the top of the charts for several weeks in a row! So there could still be some hope for me and swing. She’s only 16! How did she learn that style of music?

I’m not saying that I’m a good singer, but I’m saying that I’m good enough after only three days of it. My first lesson at the academy starts on Wednesday, so hopefully there will be an improvement in the quality of the songs, which were recording with a Youtube karaoke video and a laptop microphone.

I would like some suggestions on artists and songs that may suit my style. Please include some modern songs as well, so that I can turn my singing style around to suit people in my age bracket.

My biggest worry is that I’m making a fool out of myself, and that I’m getting a big head all for nothing. If I do fail, at least I’ve had my share of 30 minutes of fame. I don’t want to turn into a monster. I don’t want to lose friends because of arrogance on a skill that i think I have but really don’t.

That link is soon to have some more hits on there that I promise I will do a better job of. But I am very limited with the microphone on my laptop. Currently in production is Somewhere Beyond the Sea.

I’m 18 years old, and still waiting for my voice to finish breaking. Please help me.

    Ok, you have a very nice voice but there is no career prospect without some training. Go to the academy and learn how to sing with proper technique and tuning. Your voice can change rapidly in the first year of learning and as your voice is still breaking the change is more likely. I think you should ask those people at the academy for advice on what to do and whether to choose swing as a genre to sing in. You’re right, swing does not sell but as long as you don’t call it swing you have more of a chance of being successful. I think you should start singing some more swing-like songs and ease people in to it. However, swing will not sell to people in your age bracket. You have a good voice, keep trying. Hope this helped.
