I'm not very good, but I thought I'd might as well share this. My voice isn't very great and I have had no singing training. Here is the least terrible example of my singing: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmtikybfcsIFeel free to leave any feedback. |

Here is the least terrible example of my singing: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmtikybfcsIFeel free to leave any feedback. I've never listened to the original so my commentary isn't going to be as to how you could improve to get closer to that. But general things I think *could* be useful in your singing journey. Your low singing is technically sound but very monotonous? If that's what you're going for its ok, but changing volume across range really helps with putting across a message. Your sort of SLS style singing isn't especially conducive to emotion. To improve this (if you want) I'd recommend learning how to get rid of the airiness you get when you go up, learning overdrive and edge for those 4th octave notes but twanging should help fine with the 2nd and 3rd you seem to prefer. Just putting your voice and your energy in to the performance really helps get across what I *think* you're trying to. |

Here's the original for comparison: youtu.be/XpqqjU7u5YcAlso, I think it'd be useful to say that I can't go above C4 without falsetto. Anyways, thanks for the feedback. |

When I was 15 years old, I sounded like a castrato. Interesting that your voice is that deep. How long have you been singing?
You sound like someone still trying to find their voice and you have plenty of time to do that.
I think the main thing I'd work on if I was you would be the tone. You still need to work on your pitch, but most importantly you should consider the general mood of a song you are singing.
The Bee Gees song you picked is a highly emotional song, it would require you to be very emotionally expressive, honest and vunerable in your singing, as if you were delivering these lyrics to another person. Your way of delivering these lines, I'd describe as "bored". It sounds like someone woke you up in the middle of the night and forced you to sing these lines for them.
There are songs where a more bored delivery works, in punk music or in rap music. Also, in more humorous music like Frank Zappa or Bo Burnham. For a Bee Gees song like this, it does not seem to work, at least in your case it doesn't.
I wonder why you picked that song, is it a personal favorite of yours? If yes, ask yourself what it is you like so much about the song, what do you feel when you listen to it? Then sing the song again and try to articulate that without thinking too much about how it will sound. If you just picked it randomly, pick a song that you really like or write one yourself.
