  • Lawrence!

    Songs to cover...why? This is my favorite vid so far...I imagine you do a fine job of performing because you're actually working that tiny space you're in...engaging the camera with your eyes as well as your voice. Anyone can relate to the lyrics. Guitar, voice, and collective ambience of the room had a good balance considering the pop shot sound of the video. Your pitch is the only thing that shifts about a bit. You sing a lot from your vocal mask. Experiment singing from the bottom up and you'll create the wind to push those languid melodies. When you're on you're on and those moments in the song where you connect witht the music are really moving. Stick with the originals brother...you sound like you and that's a good thing.


    Namaste,


    Brian
  • Bravo. You've got it all - the beautiful and catchy melodies, the amazing vocals, and the heartfelt lyrics. Great chords and rhythm, too! If you ever get a chance, do check out my originals and let me know how I should go about bettering them: youtube.com/TamaraDesireeKim
  • Hi Lawrence, nice song. If you can pull your falsetto down to your chest to add more energy and resonance to it, I think Robbie Williams's "Angels" would sound great with your voice. Where was it that I read "don´t dream your life, live your dreams"? Good luck.
