8 TIPS - LEARN HOW TO SING
1. Open your mouth when you’re singing!
Singers who keep their mouths mostly closed are likely
tense in the tongue and are far from achieving maximum
quality of tone. If you can fit two fingers between your
teeth while singing (esp on open vowels like “ah” and
“oh”), then you’re good. If not, open your mouth more.
2. Relax the tongue.
85% of all vocal problems involve tension in the tongue.
Worst part is most people aren’t even aware of it. Look in
a mirror while singing. If the tip of your tongue isn’t
dominantly resting on your bottom front teeth then you’ve
got problems. Relaxing the tongue more forward in the
mouth will help.
3. Don’t take in too much air.
If you breathe in too much air, then you create pressure
under the folds that can easily hinder you ability to sing
freely. It can prevent you from singing high notes and it
almost always causes tension in your neck. To fix it,
become aware of just how little is involved in regular
breathing and try to mimic that sensation when singing.
4. Keep the larynx steady.
If you don’t know what the larynx is, it’s where your adam’s
apple is (or where it would be ladies). If this area of your
neck is raising or lowering while singing, then you’re
throwing off your whole vocal mechanism leading to many
different complications. Rest your hand on your larynx while
singing and make sure it stays steady.
5. Open and relax the back of the mouth.
This is equally as important as allowing the front of the mouth to be open,
if not more. If the back of the mouth is closed off, then the quality of the
sound is shot.
To get a feel for it, hold the “ng” sound of hung and feel how closed that
is. Now say “ah” like you’re in a doctor’s office… that’s more open.
Leaving the back of the mouth open like the “ah” sound can help create a
beautiful resonance in the voice.
6. Sing with ENERGY.
Singing is a very physical activity. You must be energized and
excited about what you’re doing or else it lacks passion (and
it’s flat!). Singing with energy helps you hit higher notes and
helps keep the sound out of the throat. Allow yourself to get
excited before singing.
7. Believe what you’re singing.
Music is a form of expression. It’s alive and has a
great ability to influence listeners. But that’s only
true when you believe what you’re singing. Try to
connect to the song through some personal life
experience and see how alive the music you’re
singing becomes.
8. Get out of your own way.
Singing should feel like speaking. There should be no
pressing, tension, straining, reaching, or grabbing when
vocally active. These sensations usually happen when we
try to force the sound out of us.
If you’re not able to sing something, try to bring it back to
speech first. You’d be surprised how easy that high “C”
can be when you speak it.
