Most of us have probably heard a beautiful song on the radio or at a live performance and wished that we too could sing with such a pleasing voice. Perhaps you were inspired at the moment to take singing lessons to learn how to sing, but then shelved the thought because you felt you did not truly have the potential to sing well.But if you have a genuine desire to learn to sing, don't give up, and never think that you're a hopeless case! Contrary to what many people say, singing is not something you're born with-- it's something that must be developed, and something that anyone can learn.
Sure, some people are born with innately rich natural talent, but then again, not everyone aspires to be a professional Grammy-winning pop star! Normal, everyday people can learn to develop a pleasing and impressive singing voice with the proper training. Usually that's all most of us want--to not have to be afraid that we'll be asked to perform a karaoke song at a party, or to just be able to sing along with our favorite songs on the radio without straining.
Let me tell you a little story, a true story. Many years ago I was training to become a catholic priest (for personal reasons it didn't work out, but that's for another day) but during my time in the seminary a priest tutor told me I'd have to learn to sing. Now you'll have to take my word for it but my voice was like the mating call of a rusty file! To my surprise I did learn how to sing.
When you are part of any team, you have an opportunity to contribute to the group. One day, you may even have the opportunity to take part as a leader of some kind.Self-confidence.Many people are afraid of performing, or are nervous when people hear them sing. They do not know what they sound like and are uncertain of their ability. Once you have begun to work on your singing ability, you will gain confidence, develop a greater awareness of your ability, and know how to develop it.
As your singing improves, you will be able to move from being uncertain of how good you are, to knowing you are producing a fantastic sound. You may find yourself looking forward to every opportunity to sing and look amazing. Attractiveness.When I was doing research, I searched on Twitter for people talking about singing, and I noticed a trend. They were putting the hash tag #Myweakness with it.
Everyone wants to be able to sing, that's human nature. Being able to sing well enough to make a career out of it, takes some training even if you have raw natural talent. Yes, you can learn to become a great singer - you can train your voice just like you learn any instrument. You can become a singer of whatever level you desire with the right training, plenty of practice, and dedication to sticking to it.
Think about it: healthy, focused, happy, popular, self-confident and a great singer. Sounds almost like a personal ad...Enough said. So what is stopping you now?It is said that good singers are born, not made. Many singing experts would disagree. While talent is a plus, it is not the only factor in determining a really good singer. Even the most popular singers in the world can tell you that anyone can learn to sing! The answer to the question, "Can anyone learn to sing?" is a resounding yes.Hiring costly voice coaches are not musts in learning how to sing. Ask the famous singers and not all of them went to singing lessons when they were starting in their careers. Aside from talent, and practice, confidence is very important.
Shows like American Idol, while very popular, do not really mold excellent singers. The candidates are selected mainly for entertainment purposes only and the ones who win are chosen by voters not by a panel of experts. Another myth about singing is the one about majority of the populace being "tone-deaf". Being tone-deaf means that one is singing too loud, off-key and off pitch. In reality, less than 2% of the people are tone-deaf. Those who find it hard to sing simply need ear training. Through a singing tutor or a learn-to-sing program, tone-deaf individuals would be a thing of the past.
There are many different options for you. You can go out and buy books, cd's, and dvd's. There is a plethora of instructional materials that will help guide you to finding and perfecting your voice. You can also hire a personal teacher. Check the bulletin boards at places like Guitar Center for private tutors. Or, you can go the old fashion route. Find a few of the records that you really admire, turn the music up, and sing along.A Singing Course or Get a Good Coach? Whatever method you choose, the answer to the question "Can I learn to sing rock?" is yes. The beautiful thing about rock and roll music is that it has more to do with attitude then anything else.
A very important tip is to keep your voice within your vocal range. The quality of the voice is better than the hitting the high notes. Billie Holiday is a good example of successful singer with only an octave range.Mimicking your favorite singers is not a bad thing but having your own style of singing definitely makes you a better singer. The reason why pop stars became famous is that they usually have developed a unique style of singing. Aside from a unique style, you should also learn to breathe the right way and add dynamics to your singing.
