Can it be learnt to an extent over the internet? With different breathing techniques and stuff? My voice is terrible and I'm desperate to learn how to sing, my friends all have a band and want a singer and I want to be that singer so I want to work like crazy no matter how to learn if its possible.
Ok. Well if you dont have any experience in singing, thats ok. you CAN learn how to sing. But if you dont have any rythm or you cant hear the difference in notes, (which some people dont have rythm and some people cant hear the difference between an A sharp and a C flat.) its impossible to sing. =( Whats sad though is that you cant learn rythm unfortunately. Its something your either born with or without. Im not sure if you can learn how to hear for different notes though. If you could, im sure it would take quite a while and you would have to be constantly around music. Not hip hop pr rock music but more like country music. Thats the best music to listen to if you want to learn how to sing.
The best thing to do if you want to improve your singing is listen to a really good singer like mariah carey, whitney houston, Carrie underwood etc. and sing along with them. The high notes that they hit, I know it may sound awful to you and its embarassing, but try to hit them. That will improve your vocal range. Now dont think after a couple weeks, or a couple months that your gonna be this awesome singer. It takes time. Even though you may not be able to see it you will be improving. A really good way to hear yourself improving is record yourself singing then every two weeks record yourself and listen to both of them. If you are singing every day and pushing yourself, you should hear a big difference. Just keep working hard and im sure you can do it.
I know you may nt know what this means, but sing with your stomach. Dont sing through your nose. Thats just about all I can tell you. The rest your just gonna have to learn from experience.
I hope I helped. =) goodluck.
